Serene Branson film gaffe caused by substantial migraine headache

The speech issues featured in the viral video of Serene Branson were likely the product of a migraine. Many individuals thought Branson had suffered a stroke or was three sheets to the wind in the film, which went viral. Branson was examined by doctors after the incident. She has been diagnosed with having had a migraine and has healed.

Reporter from viral video did not have a stroke

The after Grammy Awards coverage was supposed to be done by media reporter Serene Branson. KCBS TV sent her to do it. In the Serene Branson Grammy coverage film, the media reporter speaks gibberish and seems to have great difficulty talking, and the station quickly cut to another story. The video has gone viral and was flagged as a media reporter on air while intoxicated, and several people thought that Branson had a stroke. There were lots of tests done to discover out that Branson did not have a stroke. MSNBC reports that it was reported as a migraine. The speech issues were caused by her going numb on one side of her face while she also noticed she had a difficult time reading and forming thoughts.

Headache isn’t what a migraine is

In the brain, there is an event that takes place called a migraine which is worse than a headache. A "migraine aura" was what Branson experienced which is much like a stroke in the symptoms that are shown in it, according to the Los Angeles Times. A migraine aura, which doesn’t occur during all migraines, can cause changes in vision like seeing lights as blurry or incredibly bright, numbness, speech difficulties and other symptoms, according to WebMD.

Can really be painful

Those with migraines know how difficult it is. It can be hard to do anything. Many people just need to lie down for a number of hrs, however some headaches are incredibly severe. If you are experiencing migraine auras though, get medical attention. This is because they are often really bad. Risk factors like smoking and family history of migraines can increase risk although the cause of them is unknown.
