"I underwent multiple CT scans, MRIs, a lumbar puncture, and a cerebral angiogram, an invasive procedure where doctors accessed an artery through my groin to examine the blood vessels in my brain. It was one of the most frightening experiences of my life," he shared. "In the end, I was diagnosed with RCVS (reversible cerebral vasodilation syndrome) which is reversible and gives me lot of hope."

 

The Cleveland Clinic says RCVS is a condition that causes sudden, severe “thunderclap” headaches and other disruptive brain symptoms. The symptoms often resemble those of medical emergencies like strokes or brain bleeds. 

 

 

Goldin is optimistic that everything will work out in the long run.

 

He is incredibly grateful to the medical experts for their tireless efforts and care.

 

"By the grace of God, and thanks to incredible doctors and nurses, I am here. My speech is still recovering, and I am recovering," he insisted. "This experience tested me mentally and physically in ways I never imagined. But I am determined to return stronger both on and off the court. Thank you for standing with me. Stronger comeback loading."
