'The amount of my brain that is no longer usable — it’s remarkable that I am able to speak, sometimes articulately, and live my life completely normally with absolutely no repercussions,' Clarke said.
The"Game of Thrones" actress revealed she suffered her first brain aneurysm in 2011 at 24 years old. While at the gym, she had to pause her workout due to unbearable pain and made her way to the bathroom where she became sick."The pain — shooting, stabbing, constricting pain — was getting worse. At some level, I knew what was happening: my brain was damaged," she wrote, adding that she started to recall"Game of Thrones" lines to keep her brain sharp.
"As I later learned, about a third of SAH patients die immediately or soon thereafter. For the patients who do survive, urgent treatment is required to seal off the aneurysm," Clarke said. Emilia Clarke reveals she got 'as drunk as humanly possible' thanks to Jason Momoa At the hospital, she underwent"minimally invasive" brain surgery. "This would not be my last surgery, and it would not be the worst," the actress said.
In 2013, Clarke once again had surgery after"growth on the other side of my brain had doubled in size."
