FES is an uncommon yet serious complication that occurs due to bone marrow necrosis and is usually associated with increased mortality or damaging neurologic sequelae for the surviving patient.

She was then given steroids for her migraine which did not subside with the initial treatment.

Imaging studies showed microhemorrhages throughout the cerebral hemispheres, brainstem, and cerebellum. The imaging of her lungs confirmed severe acute chest syndrome.
