Sharon Stone <\/a>is speaking out about what she feels is a misdiagnosis that could have left her dead after her 2001 stroke.<\/p>\n

In an interview with British Vogue, the “Basic Instinct” star detailed how she believed medical staff didn\u2019t listen to her concerns.<\/p>\n

She recounted visiting an emergency room in 2001, saying, “I remember waking up on a gurney and asking the kid wheeling it where I was going, and him saying, \u2018brain surgery.\u2019”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“A doctor had decided, without my knowledge or consent, that he should give me exploratory brain surgery and sent me off to the operating room,” she claimed. “What I learned through that experience is that in a medical setting, women often just aren\u2019t heard, particularly when you don\u2019t have a female doctor.”<\/p>\n

SHARON STONE RECALLS NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE AFTER 2001 STROKE: ‘IT’S SO PROFOUND’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

According to Stone, she had suffered from a ruptured vertebral artery, which led to a brain hemorrhage.<\/p>\n

“They missed it with the first angiogram and decided that I was faking it,” the “Casino” star claimed. “My best friend talked them into giving me a second one and they discovered that I had been hemorrhaging into my brain, my whole subarachnoid pool, and that my vertebral artery was ruptured. I would have died if they had sent me home.”<\/p>\n

Stone is still dealing with the lasting effects<\/a> of the brain hemorrhage.<\/p>\n

When she first left the hospital, she revealed she had so much bleeding, “that the right side of\u00a0my face fell, my left foot was dragging severely, and I was stuttering very badly.” says Stone, adding that she now takes medication daily to address the stuttering and severe brain seizures.<\/p>\n

“For the first couple of years I would also get these weird knuckle-like knots that would come up all over the top of my head that felt like I was getting punched. I can\u2019t express how painful it all was,” she added.<\/p>\n

She recently told People magazine she has to get a solid “eight hours of uninterrupted sleep”<\/a> to avoid seizures.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In June, she described living her life with a disability at the “Raising Our Voices” luncheon, given by The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n

“I had\u00a0a stroke in 2001. I had a 1% chance of survival. I had a nine-day brain bleed. I recovered for seven years and I haven’t had jobs since. My contract changed. I have a maximum of a 14-hour day. When it first happened, I didn\u2019t want to tell anybody because, you know, if something goes wrong with you, you\u2019re out. Something went wrong with me: I\u2019ve been out, for 20 years,” she declared.<\/p>\n

In her British Vogue interview, Stone credits Michael J. Fox<\/a> with encouraging her to be open with the public about her life and disability.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I hid my disability and was afraid to go out and didn\u2019t want people to know,” she said. “I just thought no one would accept me.”<\/p>\n

“I think many people identify with their illness as \u2018I am this thing,\u2019 and it cannot be your identity,” she continued. “In my case, so much was taken from me. I lost custody of my child, I lost my career and was not able to work, I was going through a divorce and being put through the ringer, I lost so much, and I could have allowed that to define me. But you have to stand up and say, \u2018OK, that happened, and now what? What am I made of?\u2019”<\/p>\n

Since stepping back from the Hollywood spotlight, Stone has become an avid painter.<\/p>\n

She is also a board member at the Barrow Neurological Foundation, and led a fundraising event, Neuro Night, with proceeds going to the Barrow Neurological Institute, which specializes in research into finding cures for brain aneurysms, tumors and Parkinson\u2019s disease.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
