Bret Michaels and his press conference

Michaels is only 47 and ended up in intensive care in critical condition after a headache was diagnosed as a massive brain hemorrhage. When Dr. Joseph Zabramski, Barrow’s chief of cerebrovascular surgery, spoke to reporters about Bret Michaels’ prognosis, he said, “He’s just one of those lucky individuals, the 20 percent or so who have a subarachnoid hemorrhage who make a complete recovery and are able to resume all of their normal activities”. The doctor said angiograms failed to turn up an aneurysm, and he still doesn’t know what caused Bret Michaels’ brain hemorrhage.

Bret Michaels had an emergency appendectomy about two weeks before he was afflicted with the massive brain hemorrhage that put him back in the hospital. The New York Daily News reports that doctors don't think that the appendectomy could have caused the condition. Dr. Ezriel Kornel, a neurosurgeon and member of the board of directors for the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, explained to the New York Daily News that “It is highly uncommon for a prior surgery to produce a brain hemorrhage”.
