Kim Kardashian Shares Shocking Brain Aneurysm Diagnosis News
Reality television personality Kim Kardashian has disclosed a significant health concern: she has been diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. This revelation was made in a preview clip for the new season of the Disney+ series “The Kardashians,” where the 45-year-old underwent an imaging scan that detected a small aneurysm, reportedly attributed to stress.
Understanding Brain Aneurysms
A brain aneurysm represents a swelling in a blood vessel within the brain. Though rare, if an aneurysm bursts, it can lead to serious bleeding in the brain. The exact causes of brain aneurysms remain unclear, but several risk factors can increase the likelihood, including:
- High blood pressure
- Smoking
- Family history of aneurysms
Brain aneurysms are relatively common, affecting about one in every 50 individuals. Most patients may remain unaware of their condition until discovered during tests for unrelated issues.
Symptoms of a Brain Aneurysm
Most brain aneurysms are small and asymptomatic. However, larger aneurysms can present various symptoms, which may include:
- Headaches, particularly around the eye
- Changes in vision, such as double vision
- Dizziness and balance issues
- Numbness or weakness on one side of the face
- Difficulties in concentration and speech
- Problems with short-term memory
Kardashian’s Personal Struggles
In a recent episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast hosted by Alex Cooper, Kardashian shared her feelings of being “emotionally and financially unsafe” during her marriage to rapper Kanye West. His unpredictable behavior often left her in a state of worry. She recounted instances where West would give away their luxury vehicles, including several Lamborghinis, during episodes of erratic behavior.
Kardashian expressed her desire to support West, noting that she would often reflect on whether she should have stayed to help him. The couple, married for eight years until 2022, shares four children: North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six. Her primary concern remains shielding her children from the tumultuous narratives surrounding their father’s actions.
Future Projects
In addition to her reality show, Kardashian is set to star in the upcoming Disney+ legal drama “All’s Fair.” This series will feature notable Hollywood actors, including Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash, and Teyana Taylor.
