Dr. Sandra Lee has revealed that she is dealing with PTSD after suffering an ischemic stroke in November, which left her with impaired mobility and speech. The incident occurred while she was filming season two of her Lifetime reality series, and the stress of returning to work led to her PTSD. Lee is now recovering from the stroke and is monitoring her blood pressure and cholesterol, which were two major factors contributing to the clot. Despite the challenges of recovery, Lee views the traumatic event as "a blessing in disguise" and hopes to raise awareness of this issue.
