Queen's Brian May reassures fans after minor stroke and hand paralysis

Worrisome news has come from the United Kingdom. As shared on social media by Queen's eminent guitarist Brian May, a few days ago, he experienced a "mild stroke," which resulted in temporary paralysis of his hand. However, the rock legend reassures his fans.

Fans of Queen experienced a moment of fear as they followed the band’s eminent guitarist, Brian May, on social media. On Wednesday, September 4, the 77-year-old shared concerning news about his health. In a short video, he revealed that a few days earlier, he had suffered a health-threatening stroke.

Although the guitarist himself describes it as a "minor health ailment," many fans were worried about the news. Particularly troubling was the information about the paralysis that affected the well-known guitarist's hand after the stroke, preventing him from playing and creating music. However, he reassures, explaining that his health is slowly returning to normal.

So, good news is I’m okay. Just doing what I’m told which is basically nothing. I’m grounded I’m not allowed to go out – well I’m not allowed to drive, not allowed to get on a plane, not allowed to raise the heart rate too high, not allowed to have planes flying over, which will stress me. But I’m good — explains Brian May to his fans on his Instagram.

Brian May emphasizes that the minor consequences of the stroke are thanks to "fantastic healthcare." He also revealed that the ambulance ride was "extremely emotional" for him and shared the information about the stroke so late because he didn’t want unnecessary sympathy.

Nevertheless, fans in the comments did not hide their warm words and wishes for health for the legendary guitarist. Unfortunately, this is not the first time he has had to deal with serious health problems.
