Queen guitarist Brian May suffered a health scare that might have ended his career.

Sharing the news of suffering a minor stroke, May wrote on Instagram:

“I’m here to bring you some good news — the good news is that I can play guitar after the events of the last few days. I say this because it was in some doubt because that little health hiccup that I mentioned happened about a week ago and what they called it was a minor stroke. It was a little scary, I have to say.”

While this is not the first time May has suffered a health scare that could have ended his time as a musician. Back in 2020 he suffered a “very near death” heart attack, despite regular exercise and apparent lack of vices.

The good news is that he is recovering and hopes to be working again very soon!
