Kim Kardashian says her brain aneurysm diagnosis made preparing for the bar exam to be a lawyer even more intense.
“I did a Prenuvo scan and they called me today and they’re like, ‘Everything looks great, but you have an aneurysm in your brain,’” Kim told her sister Kourtney Kardashian, 46, on the Thursday, November 20 episode of The Kardashians on Hulu. “They’re like, ‘It’s been there for years. It was here a few years ago.’”
In the episode, Kim said she sent her scan to a brain surgeon named Keith Black, who informed her that she needed to make an appointment for imaging.
“Thank God,” Kourtney told her sister.
“I was like, ‘Can I wait? Because what makes it rupture?’” said Kim of her conversation with the doctor. “They were like, ‘Just stress.’ I’m like, ‘Well, I’m taking the bar exam. I’m studying 10 hours a day.”
Kourtney added, “Well, not to mention all the stress in your life.”

Earlier this month, Kim, who shares children North, 12, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, with ex-husband Kanye West, 48, shared that she did not pass the California bar exam.
“Well…I’m not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV,” she wrote on a now-expired Instagram story, according to People, referencing to her role on the polarizing legal drama All’s Fair. “Six years into this law journey, and I’m still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up – just more studying and even more determination.”
On the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim told Kourtney that her stress has been “next level,” adding, “to the point of hives.”
