Sandra Lee, Dr. Pimple Popper, Reveals On-Set Stroke and Recovery Journey

TL;DR Summary
Dr. Sandra Lee (Dr. Pimple Popper) revealed she suffered an ischemic stroke on the set of her Lifetime series Dr. Pimple Popper: Breaking Out last November. She initially mistook symptoms for a hot flash, later experienced left-side weakness and trouble speaking, and an MRI confirmed the stroke. She paused filming, spent two months in physical and occupational therapy, and by January was back to work, though she still deals with left-hand dexterity issues and occasional slurred speech.
