Hailey observed that her symptoms started to diminish with time and she was symptom-free upon arriving at Eisenhower Medical Center Rancho Mirage in California.
After undergoing multiple scans, Hailey discovered that she had suffered a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), or mini-stroke.
Further tests revealed she had another hole in her heart, the Patent Foramen Ovale.
“The conclusion was that I had a blood clot that traveled into my heart,” Hailey explained. “My blood clot actually escaped through the flap or the hole in my heart and it traveled to my brain and that is why I suffered a TIA.”
Hailey shared that after her health scare Hailey had undergone heart surgery, and it went smoothly.
She said, “I am recovering very well and really quickly. She shared that she feels great. The biggest feeling I have is that I am relieved we could figure it out and that the matter was closed. I can now move on with my life.
