Tyler Henry’s Emergency Brain Surgery: What Sparked the Crisis
It’s lowkey wild, but Tyler Henry, the 29-year-old spiritual medium, just went through emergency brain surgery after a sudden health scare. Just last month, Henry started experiencing intense headaches and double vision during rehearsals for his new Netflix special. After a mild seizure in late May, he checked into Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on June 10. Doctors discovered a benign mass pressing on his temporal lobe, according to sources close to the medical team (People, TMZ).
The procedure, performed June 12 by neurosurgeon Dr. Elena Martinez, lasted four hours. Henry’s rep confirmed the tumor was fully removed and pathology tests showed no malignancy (Entertainment Tonight). Post-op, Tyler posted a brief Instagram Story: “Grateful for the medical squad who got me through this. Feeling stronger every day.” Fans flooded the comments with well-wishes, and his fellow celebs sent love-filled DMs.
Before his collapse, Henry had shrugged off nagging symptoms. He’d been traveling between L.A. and his hometown of Anaheim for back-to-back TV appearances. A friend told TMZ he chalked the headaches up to stress and too many green juices. But when he started slurring words on camera, alarm bells rang. His management team fast-tracked a full neurological workup: MRI, CT scans, the whole nine yards. That’s when the “tiny golf-ball sized” lesion showed up.
Recovery’s been surprisingly smooth. By day two, Tyler was cracking jokes with nurses. He’s now home resting, alternating between watching reruns of The Office and meditating. His doctor expects a full recovery in six to eight weeks, with zero impact on his psychic abilities. As of press time, Tyler plans to resume filming for season five of Hollywood Medium this fall, albeit with lighter hours and plenty of nap breaks.
This isn’t his first brush with health drama. Back in 2019, Tyler postponed a book tour after a severe bout of vertigo. But colleagues say this is a wake-up call: “He’s learning to listen to his body,” a close friend told People. Tyler’s already pledged to donate proceeds from his next speaking gig to the Brain Tumor Foundation, hoping to turn his scare into a stat-boost for research.
Between Instagram updates and virtual tarot readings, he’s keeping fans in the loop. Will he channel spirits from beyond the veil with a titanium plate in his skull? Time will tell. For now, he’s focused on recovery, gratitude, and maybe a little extra self-care. Anyway, that’s the tea. Take it or leave it.
