Hailey Bieber

Hailey Bieber underwent heart surgery after suffering a "mini stroke." She revealed she recently had a procedure performed to mend a hole in her heart.

“But I know for a fact that God has her in the palms of his hands, and that’s a good thing.” What typically happens is the heart will filter the blood clot to the lungs and the lungs will absorb it because they’re so big and they can handle it.” “They found that I had a grade five which is the highest grade you can have.

Though she is on the mend, Bieber said that she “felt a lot of anxiety” and had a “really really hard time” between her diagnosis and surgery. Bieber recently underwent surgery to close the PFO, and assured fans that everything “went smoothly” and that she’s recovering nicely at home. Mine was fairly large,” she said, noting that, as anxiety-inducing as the entire process had been, she was “grateful” to finally have a more concrete diagnosis. And I knew all the answers in my head, but when I tried to say it, I just could not get it out,” she explained. It wasn’t until Bieber underwent further testing that doctors were able to diagnose her with a PFO, a small opening in the heart that normally closes after birth. At the time, she didn’t reveal any other details, like what caused the blood clot in the first place, but now, over a month later, she’s ready to share it with her fans.

(CNN) Hailey Bieber is finally telling fans what led to her hospitalization in March. The model, who is married to musician Justin Bieber, posted a video to ...

"That I will be able to just move on from this really scary situation and just live my life." "[It was] definitely the scariest moment of my life," she said. "The biggest thing I feel is I just feel really relieved that we were able to figure everything out, that we were able to get it closed," she said.

Hailey Bieber opened up about her recent health scare in a 12-minute video posted to YouTube on Wednesday.

A small, button-like object was inserted through the femoral vein in her groin to close the small hole. Due to her PFO, the blood clot "escaped" through her heart and traveled to her brain. Typically, a blood clot is filtered by the heart and absorbed into the lungs.

Bieber's doctors say birth control, COVID and a long flight were likely contributing factors to the stroke.

She first announced she had undergone a small stroke in an Instagram post on March 12, and said that because it was already "kind of public," she wanted to give a full explanation. A small, button-like object was inserted through the femoral vein in her groin to close the small hole. Her scans showed that she experienced a lack of oxygen to her brain for a period of time, caused by the blood clot. They did not know how the blood clot had traveled to Baldwin Bieber's brain, and didn't believe that she was suffering from a PFO – a small opening in the heart that usually closes after birth. She scored a 0 on the stroke checklist in the emergency room and was no longer experiencing symptoms. "The right side of my face started drooping, I couldn't get a sentence out," she recalls.

More than a month since she was hospitalized following a brain-related medical emergency, Hailey Bieber is opening up about her health scare.

“[Doctors] were able to see that I had suffered a small blood clot in my brain, which they labeled and categorized as something called a TIA [Transient Ischemic Attack], basically it’s like having a mini-stroke,” Bieber explained. “I had so many things running through my head, number one being, ‘I’m having a stroke. “Definitely the scariest moment of my life,” Hailey recalled.

She later learned that she had suffered a small blood clot on her brain – called a TIA, or temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain – otherwise known as a mini stroke. While chatting with her husband, Justin, over breakfast, Bieber suddenly “felt a weird sensation” that travelled from her shoulders to her fingertips, which made them feel really “numb and weird”. When Justin asked her if she was okay, she struggled to form words to reply, and the right side of her face started to droop. She added that she was recovering well and grateful to the doctors and nurses who had taken care of her.

It was like my tongue and my mouth just could not form the sentences and the responses," Hailey said. Hailey said doctors determined that the cause of her clot was a perfect storm of three different things. It definitely feels like having a stroke except my body was able to resolve it pretty quickly. Do you know your name?' And I knew all of the answers in my head but as soon as I would try to say it, I just could not get it out.

Calling it an “eye-opening” experience, Bieber said she was very anxious leading up to the Closure procedure, but has felt better since and is now on a daily blood thinning and aspirin regimen. All those things combined into a “perfect storm” leading to the blood clot, though it was unclear how it traveled to her brain. Helpfully posting definitions of medical terms on the screen, Bieber said the doctors looked for a “PFO” (Patent Foramen Ovale), which is a hole in the heart that didn’t properly close at birth. But when the medic asked her basic questions about her name and where she was, Bieber said she could think of the answers but could not speak them. She called it the “scariest moment” of her life, but luckily after around 30 seconds of the kind of typical facial drooping caused by strokes, her face went back to normal. Husband Justin also thought she was having a stroke, so the singer asked someone to call 911 and, luckily for them, there was a medic on site where they were and that person began asking her questions and testing her arms.
