@drjencaudle: Catherine O’Hara had a rare medical condition called situs inversus. This condition is generally benign and people live healthy lives with it. News media are mentioning it as something she said she had so I wanted to explain it. As of this date we’re still awaiting the cause of death for her. To be clear, I’m not saying this caused her death (and neither are media reports), I am just explaining an unusual condition she had. #situsinversus #dextrocardia #catherineohara #drjencaudle
My son is a situs inversus kid! His twin is normal! 😂

When I was a med student we did an exam on a standardized patient….listened for the heart…no heartbeat! It was on the other side!

💕God bless Tasha & her kids💕 :
I have dextrocardia with situs inversus, I grew up in the Caribbean all my life and didn’t knew about this until I moved to the USA after I had an EKG. I am in perfect health 🙌🏾 I wish there a medical bracelet for this cause it is definitely a hold up in the hospital if doctors doesn’t know about it. Thanks for speaking about this

This comes from when a zygote splits and a mirror image forms from one of the halves. Often times this results in mirror twins. Catherine may have had a twin at one point.

My daughter has this but she ALSO has severe congenital heart issues (only 1 ventricle) and was expected to 💀 by age 2. Catherine's condition wouldnt CAUSE her to pass but could impact treatment of something if she was able to make it to 71.

I think it will come out that it was pneumonia that she passed from. It was heard that when medical intervention was called for her it was claimed that she couldn’t breath. 😢
