It led to Hailey undergoing a procedure to close a hole in her heart, which she is recovering well from now.
Hailey added that, by the time she got to the emergency room, she was pretty much “back to normal.” She scored a 0 on the stroke checklist once she got to the emergency room, she said.She said doctors at the hospital diagnosed her with having a small blood clot in her brain, called a TIA , “a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain, often called a ‘ministroke.’ It usually foreshadows a stroke, which is caused by a clot or blockage in the brain.
At UCLA, they did a more in-depth test to search for a PFO, and they found that Hailey had a “grade 5 PFO, which is the highest grade that you can have.” The conclusion is that Hailey had a blood clot that traveled into her heart and her blood clot escaped through the hole in her heart into her brain.
