Actress Leven Rambin has revealed a shocking health scare after she underwent surgery. “Going in for the endometriosis diagnostic and removal, and coming out with a NICKED AORTA, emergency surgery and a scar the size of my forearm was not on the bingo card,” the actress, 36, wrote on her Instagram alongside several photos of her in the hospital. The actress, who played Sloan Riley in the hit medical drama Grey’s Anatomy, also added, “The road to recovery will be long but I am determined to heal & start my family.” Endometriosis is a disease that affects women in which tissue similar to that of the inner uterus lining grows outside of the uterus, unable to leave the body during each menstrual cycle and causing buildup. Monday’s post by Rambin follows a June announcement that she would be undergoing surgery to assess if she was infertile and a confirmation in a TikTok that a nurse said her body was “normal.” “Oh how I love being a woman,” the actress joked at the end of her post.
