Kim Kardashian's health took a scary turn, and as promised, the update was shared on "The Kardashians."
The reality star shared more insights into her recent brain aneurysm diagnosis and the potential outcome should she continue on the path of her physically and mentally demanding lifestyle.
Kim Kardashian discovered her condition after an MRI scan a while ago. Health scares are not exactly new to the reality star, as she also had two pretty difficult pregnancy journeys while she was married to Kanye 'Ye' West.
Kim Kardashian's Doctors Warned Her Against Stress

The mother-of-four stated that her scan, which discovered the bulge in her brain, escalated into a deeper conversation with her doctor. She expressed to her sister, Kourtney Kardashian, in an episode of their Hulu show that the doctors believed her brain bulge happened as a result of stress.
The reality star continued to tell her sister that her condition also stands a risk of rupturing, especially under severe stress, which is literally a part of her lifestyle.
From traveling around the world for movie premieres to keeping up appearances on carpets, studying to become a lawyer, and looking after her four kids, Kim's life has pretty much been defined by tight-packed schedules.
"I have four kids that depend on me. I have to be sane. It's stressful out there, but this aneurysm can't be stressed," the mogul noted later in the conversation. According to The Daily Mail, Kim added that the doctors also confirmed that the aneurysm has likely been there for years now.
A worried Kourtney later expressed her concerns in a confessional, noting that Kim definitely has a lot going on between her kids and work, and she does not want a brain aneurysm in her future.
The Business Mogul Is Pulling All Stops To Preserve Her Health

Since the result of her scan came in, the 45-year-old decided to run more scans at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Back in October, The Blast shared that she highlighted that her brain condition was discovered as a result of a general body check-up, which she takes very seriously.
During the Good Morning America appearance to promote her new movie All's Fair, Kim emphasized that the scan was helpful to help her check her entire system and stay on top of her health game. She then assured her fans that, barring an aneurysm diagnosis, her health seemed perfect.
MedlinePlus defined a brain aneurysm as an abnormal bulge in the wall of an artery in the brain. Most brain aneurysms remain without symptoms for years until they become large, begin to leak blood, or rupture.
The signs and symptoms of this condition may include droopy eyelid, pain above or behind the eye, double vision, and numbness on one side of the face.
Kim Kardashian Blamed Bad Marriage To Kanye West For Her Health Nightmare

Aside from her hectic lifestyle, the mother-of-four also made her own conclusions that her stressful marriage to the rapper may have added to her condition.
While the former couple began their journey with loads of love and a bond to die, things started getting messy towards the end due to Ye's mental health issues and unruly behavior.
The reality star eventually filed for divorce in 2021 after four kids and seven years together. Now, in hindsight, the mogul is convinced everything she had to endure during and post her marriage to Ye played a part in her aneurysm.
"People think that I have the luxury of walking away. My ex will be in my life, no matter what. We have four kids together," the star admitted in a confessional. Kim and Ye finalized their divorce in November 2022, and the rapper moved on with Yeezy architect, Bianca Censori.
The SKIMS Founder Also Has An Age-Long Battle With Psoriasis

Well, the mother-of-four now has an aneurysm to worry about right on top of her painful and very draining journey with psoriasis. The Cleveland Clinic defined psoriasis as an autoimmune skin condition that causes itchiness and discomfort.
Psoriasis causes thick and scaly areas of skin with no cure, except for the patient to carefully manage the symptoms throughout their lives.
The Blast stated that Kim has remained vocal about her struggle with the condition for years now and has tried many treatments, including applying Kourtney's breastmilk on her skin years ago.
The condition also comes with triggers that Kim has no control over, like in 2022 when she had a flare-up after losing 16 pounds to fit into her Marilyn Monroe Met Gala dress. She also had another round of flare-ups when she began filming her newly released legal series "All's Fair."
For the film, Kim starred alongside other famous faces in Hollywood, including Teyana Taylor, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash, Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, and a host of others.
Kim Kardashian's Alleged Assassination Plot

The actress came with a shocking revelation about a scheme to brutally end her life in an episode of "The Kardashians," on Hulu. The alleged plot comes nearly a decade after her experience with a robbery operation in Paris, which left her scarred.
Kim revealed to her family in the show that someone from prison uncovered the identity of the person responsible for the hit on her head. She recalled her private investigators informing her that someone close to her was after her life, and she needed to heighten security around her.
Sources close to the TV personality claimed that the revelation made her very suspicious of everyone in her inner circle, and her younger sisters, as well as the rest of her family, also harbored that fear.
"Kim's been through scary situations before, but this one felt personal because it came from someone close. It's made her question everyone around her," the source emphasized.
In response to this alleged threat, the doting mom has upped her security budget and even has guards stationed near her kids' schools.
