#SHOWBIZ: Wani Kayrie: I suffered a severe headache, blurred vision and vomiting
Wani, whose real name is Syazwani Abdullah, was taken to the Emergency Department of a medical centre in Petaling Jaya at around 2am on Wednesday, after experiencing symptoms of blurred vision and sudden vomiting.
"I was in the emergency zone from 2am to 6am before being transferred to the ward," she told Harian Metro. "After the MRI results came back clear, I was admitted to the ward on Thursday morning."
Wani was allowed to leave the ward late on Friday evening after requesting early discharge from her doctor, so she could celebrate Hari Raya Korban with her family.
"Even though I was allowed to return home, I still couldn't celebrate Raya as usual," she explained.
"My health isn't stable yet, so I just rested at home, celebrating Raya in moderation."
According to Wani, doctors confirmed she was suffering from a 'tension headache' – a type of headache caused by stress, lack of rest, and extreme fatigue, following a very busy work period.
"To be honest, my schedule has been non-stop since Hari Raya Aidilfitri," she said.
"It's been constant promotions for my song 'Nyam Nyam Ketupat', stage performances, drama filming, the musical theatre 'Kehidupan', and promoting my new song 'Cak Cak Cekuk'."
Wani admitted that the extreme fatigue meant she could no longer control her own body, leading to a debilitating headache that wouldn't subside even with rest at home.
"Normally, if I had a headache, I'd just sleep it off at home," she said.
"But this time, the pain was incredible. My head felt like it was going to burst; I couldn't even sleep. It kept coming back repeatedly. That's why the doctor performed an MRI to rule out anything serious. Thank God, everything is fine, it was just low blood pressure."
Wani further explained that her symptoms began after she played badminton last Wednesday night.
"I had just finished playing badminton. While packing my equipment, my vision suddenly became blurry; I saw stars," she said.
"When I tried to walk, my body felt weak. I attempted to drive but felt like vomiting and had to stop. At that point, a headache started coming and going."
Wani then sought help from her friend and fellow singer, Afieq Shazwan, who was at the same location, to take her to the hospital.
"Afieq immediately called my brother to get a car," she said.
"We went to the hospital together that night. That's when the long treatment episode began."
Despite being saddened by not being able to celebrate Aidiladha like in previous years, Wani is content.
She views this experience as a chance given by God to rest and spend quality time with her family.
"Every year, if I don't go back to my hometown, I'll take my family on holiday for Raya," she said.
"But this year, perhaps God wants to give me the space to stop for a while, rest, and appreciate time with my family.

Influencer Yang Baobei Mourns The Death Of Her Mother From Terminal Cancer
Malaysian influencer Yang Baobei (杨宝贝) recently shared some devastating news about her mother. The content creator revealed that her mother passed away from cancer, just a couple of months after getting diagnosed with the disease. Yang Baobei shared the news on 23rd July 2025 (Wednesday) through her social media account. The post included a photo of the influencer kissing her ailing mother on the cheek. In the captions, Yang Baobei wrote, 'Just over a week back home from the hospital, Mom has left us forever.' The social media personality previously revealed that her mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer earlier this year, amidst deteriorating health. In her captions, Yang Baobei revealed the pain her mother went through since her diagnosis, writing 'In just half a year, from being able to walk to being unable to walk, from being able to sit to only being able to lie down, received countless injections, took countless medicines, and suffered from illness.' Despite that, the public figure said she felt blessed that she could accompany her mother during her final days and until she is no longer in pain, adding that she has no regrets. However, Yang Baobei still couldn't hide her sadness, ending her post, 'But I still miss the food you cook, the movies I watched with you, and the walk with the dog. I will always miss you, always love you. Goodbye, mom.' The influencer never revealed what cancer her mother had.

Fatal pull: MRI machine claims life of man wearing metal necklace in New York
NEW YORK, July 19 — A 61-year-old man has died after being pulled into an MRI machine by his chain necklace at a diagnostic imaging centre in Westbury, New York, authorities said. The fatal incident occurred on Wednesday at Nassau Open MRI and is under investigation. According to a statement by the Nassau County Police Department cited by The New York Times, the man entered the MRI room at 4.34pm local time wearing a 'large metallic chain' around his neck. He did not have authorisation to be in the room, police said. The magnetic force of the machine pulled the man toward it, triggering what authorities described as a 'medical episode'. He was transported to a nearby hospital but died the following afternoon at 2.36pm. Police have not released the man's name. A spokesman said yesterday that the investigation is ongoing and that no additional information was currently available. Nassau Open MRI did not respond to requests for comment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines use powerful magnets and radio waves to generate detailed images of internal organs and tissues. The machines' strong magnetic fields can be dangerous if metallic objects are brought into the room, with the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering noting that items as large as wheelchairs can become projectiles. Patients and staff are typically required to remove all metal objects before entering an MRI room. People with certain medical implants may be advised against undergoing scans. Serious incidents involving MRI machines are rare but have occurred before. In 2001, a six-year-old boy in New York was killed when a metal oxygen tank was pulled into the machine during a scan. In 2018, a man in India carrying an oxygen tank died after entering an MRI room. Most recently in 2023, a nurse in California was crushed and injured when an MRI machine's magnetic pull dragged a hospital bed into her. Nassau Open MRI offers both closed and open MRI scans, with the latter designed to be more accessible for patients who experience claustrophobia.
