Kim Kardashian Stunned After Brain Scan Reveals “Low Activity,” Doctors Link It to Chronic Stress

Kim Kardashian reacted with shock after learning that a recent brain scan showed “low activity” in parts of her brain — and revealed that she’s had a brain aneurysm for years. 

In a new episode of The Kardashians, 45‑year‑old Kardashian visited Dr. Daniel Amen for imaging that highlighted unusually low activity in her frontal lobes, which the doctor said could compromise her ability to manage stress. Though Dr. Amen assured her she does not show signs of anxiety, depression or a high risk for Alzheimer’s, he expressed concern over the scan results. 

The stressors piling up for Kardashian reportedly include her intense preparation for the California bar exam and the emotional fallout from her divorce from Ye (formerly Kanye West) — pressures she and her doctor believe could be contributing to the abnormal brain‑scan findings. 

Responding to the news, Kardashian said, “That just can’t be… not accepting,” then acknowledged the need to address the findings, declaring: “I got to get on a plan to really figure this out because I have some s--- to do this summer.”
