The former 'Game of Thrones' star said a scan of her brain showed that 'quite a bit' of it was 'missing.'
The actor revealed that the first brain aneurysm happened in February 2011 after Season One of"Game of Thrones" wrapped. Clarke, then 24, was working out with a trainer when she experienced a painful sensation in her brain.
After being taken to a hospital, Clarke was diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage and underwent an emergency three-hour surgery., a condition where damage to the brain affects a person's ability to speak and write. Clarke recalled that at one point she couldn't remember her own name. While healing in the hospital over the next month, Clarke learned she had another smaller aneurysm on the other side of her brain. Doctors told her it could remain dormant and harmless for the rest of her life. They advised keeping a"careful watch" on it.
