Sharon Stone needed an EKG (electrocardiogram) done every day for 10 days after the incident took place. “I had to go get EKGs every single day for 10 days. It was so crazy,” she said. This is not the first time she had a brush with death.
Stone faced a health issue in 2001 after she suffered a stroke. The actress had a bleak chance of survival as she did not seek treatment right away. Stone urged women to visit the hospital if they experience a “really bad headache”.

“If you have a really bad headache, you need to go to the hospital. I didn’t get to the hospital until day three or four of my stroke. Most people die. I had a one per cent chance of living by the time I got surgery — and they wouldn’t know for a month if I would live. No one told me — I read it in a magazine,” Sharon Stone further informed.
