Stone took to Instagram Stories on Tuesday with a personal message about her health
Stone took to Instagram Stories on Tuesday with a personal message about her health, saying she “just had another misdiagnosis and incorrect procedure” and went for “a double epidural” to treat her pain.
She then encouraged her followers to seek second opinions after saying a “large fibroid tumor” had been found in her body following a previous medical misdiagnosis.
The Oscar nominee said amid “worsening pain” she went to seek a second opinion from another doctor who revealed she has “a large fibroid tumor that needs to be removed.”
This comes 21 years after the beauty suffered a brain hemorrhage and stroke that nearly killed her.
The Total Recall star addressed women directly, writing, “Ladies especially, don’t get blown off. GET A SECOND OPINION. It could save your life.’
Stone said she “wouldn’t be in full recovery for four to six weeks” and thanked fans for their care, adding: “It’s all right.”
This isn’t the first time the Sliver actress has spoken publicly about her health issues.
Her 2021 autobiography The Beauty of Living Twice states that in 2001 benign tumors were removed from her body that she described as “gigantic” and “bigger than my chest alone.”

She said a plastic surgeon gave her larger breast implants in the aftermath of the medical procedure that she had agreed to undergo breast reconstruction after the tumors were removed.
Stone also suffered a stroke and brain haemorrhage in 2001, when she was 43 years old.
Appear on the Today show in March 2021, Stone shared details of the critical moments as she was hospitalized and a doctor told her she nearly passed away.
“The room was so quiet,” Stone said. “When the room is so quiet and no one is running around to fix you, you realize how close death is and how serious everything is.”

Stone would continue to recover, but she said the stroke had an impact on her career and the way she was treated by others.
“People treated me in a way that was brutally unfriendly,” she said Variety in 2019. “From other women in my own company to the female judge who handled my child custody case, I don’t think anyone understands how dangerous a stroke is for women and what it takes to recover — it took me about seven years.”
She added: “I had to lock up my house. I lost everything I had. I lost my place in the company. I was like the hottest movie star, you know? It was like Miss Princess Diana and I were so famous – and she died and I had a stroke. And we were forgotten.’
Earlier this year, Stone also revealed that he has lost nine children to miscarriage.
The actress – who is the mother of three sons Roan, 22, Laird, 17 and Quinn, 16, through adoption – insists women are made to feel that losing a baby is “something to be carried alone and in the secret with a kind of sense of failure’.
In an Instagram comment, she wrote: “We women have no forum to discuss the gravity of this loss. I lost nine children to a miscarriage. It is no small matter, neither physically nor emotionally, but we feel it is something to wear alone and in secret with a kind of sense of failure. Instead of receiving the much-needed compassion and empathy and healing that we so desperately need. The health and well-being of women left in the care of male ideology have become lax at best, ignorant in fact, and violently oppressive in their efforts.”
