Kim gives tips about a mini-stroke

American reality TV personality Kim Zolciak still seems to suffer from the residual damage after her September 2015 stroke.

Kim who first gained fame and recognition with her appearance on Bravo’s ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ in 2008 had posted on her Instagram about her recuperation from her stroke.

She also shared an email that her eldest daughter, Brielle, 20 had sent her regarding the tips for recognizing a stroke patient.

On 16^th July 2017, Kim wrote:

“Thank you @briellebiermann for sending me this! I wanted to share it with you! As you know I had a stroke in Sept 2015 and when Brielle called Kroy to tell him something wasn’t ‘right’ with me I remember him yelling, ‘Brielle get her in the car NOW and take her to the hospital fast every minute count!’ It’s TRUE!”

Kim added:

“And Im so thankful for everyone’s quick thinking. I’ve never seen doctors/nurses move as fast as they did the second I was wheeled in. I’m so thankful for my medical team,”

Kim’s mini-stroke

The reality star had suffered from TIA (Transient Ischemic attack) which is also called a mini-stroke. In this, there is a decrease in the blood supply to a particular region of the brain leading to numbness and loss of power of one side of the body. Kim had numbness on the left side of her body with a loss of speech.

Due to the quick action on the part of her daughter Brielle, husband Kroy, and the medical and paramedical staff, Kim could receive prompt treatment before the attack progressed any further.

During her examination and investigations, it was revealed that Kim also had an underlying congenital heart disease called PFO (patent foramen ovale) in which there is a hole in the wall dividing her heart’s upper 2 chambers.

This opening had not closed at birth and hence a clot had traveled from the right side of her heart to the left side via this opening and up her arteries to the brain, leading to less blood supply and stroke.

Her present condition

Kim said that she does have some residual problems due to the mini-stroke. She further wrote on her Instagram:

“I have almost fully recovered (sometimes my tongue slips when I speak, and sometimes I have the word on the tip of my tongue but it just doesnt come out) but I feel great!! I had my stroke at 37!! It can happen to anyone at any age!! When in doubt please always check it out!!”

She told her fans and followers to be on the alert about the dangerous symptoms of a mini-stroke and seek medical attention immediately.

Kim Zolciak had felt that her stroke was a blessing in disguise since it brought to the forefront her heart ailment as well for which she has not undergone corrective surgery. Due to this, her chances of further such strokes are minimized.

Kim’s family life

Kim Zolciak has two daughters from her previous relationships; elder Brielle, 24, and second, Ariana, 20. She was married to Dan Toce from 2001 to 2003. Kim Zolciak admitted in 2010 that she is bisexual and was in a romantic relationship with DJ Tracy Young.

They have four children together; Kroy Jagger, 10, Kash Kade, 10, and twins Kaia and Kane, 9. Kash had been bitten on his face by a dog in January 2017. He had needed plastic surgery for his face and a few days back, Kim had shared that he is absolutely ok now.

She did have a boyfriend before Kroy by the name of ‘Big Poppa’ who seems used to showering her with expensive gifts and also had purchased an Atlanta townhouse for her. But she has denied any relations with him at that moment and says that she is committed to Kroy.
