Local radio DJ Divian Nair, known for hosting the morning show on Kiss92, recently shared a health scare that forced him to reassess his life. The 35-year-old took to Instagram on April 6 to recount his experience, revealing that his body “forced quit his primary functions” during a major migraine attack.
Describing the frightening episode, Divian wrote, “Two days ago, my body told me to stop… I suffered a major migraine attack that caused some paralysis on one side. At the time, when half my face began to droop, my wife assumed I was having a stroke.”
She quickly called an ambulance, and Divian was rushed to Singapore General Hospital (SGH) for urgent CT scans to check for a brain clot or bleeding. He was then placed in a high-dependency unit for further MRI scans. Fortunately, all the tests came back clear, with no signs of a stroke.
While doctors couldn’t entirely rule out a stroke, they concluded that the symptoms were most likely caused by a severe migraine triggered by stress and fatigue. Divian assured his followers that he is feeling better and is on the path to a full recovery. He expressed his gratitude to his family, friends, and supporters who sent flowers and well wishes.
In his post, Divian revealed that he had been under immense stress due to work-related issues in recent months. He shared that the scare has made him realize the importance of slowing down and resetting his priorities. “I’ll be off work and radio for a little while,” he said, “but I promise to come back fully charged. For now, I’m excited to try this thing people call sleep.”
