The symptoms that I have are very controlled, which are seizures or spastic seizures with strong muscular hyperactivity, which were so strong that for many days I was completely unable to control my body at all, but with the medication I am much better and I can now lead a practically normal life ».
Arrival to Madrid
Perales stressed that when he arrived in Madrid he was nine days entereden la UCI of the Hospital Sanitas La Moraleja, whose ICU and neurology teams thanked her for turning to her to find out the origin of her poor health.
“At first it pointed to be a picture of epilepsy. That is why in Tokyo they ruled out brain tumors, strokes and those things associated with such an acute and sudden crisis with those symptoms. However, already in Madrid and after carrying out the relevant tests, it was completely ruled out. All the tests that are being carried out on me are going well, although I still lack many results, “he added. Perales indicated that “the only really certain thing” is that he has “seizures controlled with medication”, but he still does not have a clinical diagnosis.
