Brian May’s ‘Minor Stroke’ Adventure: Onward and Upward for the Queen Guitarist!
Brian May, Queen’s guitarist, recently experienced a minor stroke that temporarily impacted his arm mobility. He humorously updated his fans via Instagram, assuring them he could still play guitar and was recovering well despite being advised to take it easy. His fans expressed relief and support, showing the deep bond between the iconic rock star and his loyal audience.
Brian May, the iconic guitarist of Queen, shared that he had a little scare last week, culminating in a minor stroke that left him flailing like a fish out of water, unable to control his arm. In a candid Instagram video, the 77-year-old strummed his way through the ordeal, reassuring fans with his signature wit. “The good news is that I can still play guitar,” he declared, despite briefly losing mobility in his arm, which naturally led to a few heart palpitations.
He described the incident as a “health hiccup” that jolted him unexpectedly. After receiving stellar emergency care at Frimley Hospital—complete with flashing blue lights, so you know it was serious—Brian reflected on his recovery routine, which frankly sounds a bit like a very rock and roll version of a patient’s boring recovery manual. “I’m grounded, not allowed to fly or run marathons, just a gentle strum and stay put.”
Fans expressed their concerns with understanding (and more than a pinch of relief) as they flooded the comments with sweet sentiments. Krista exclaimed, “I’m so happy to hear everything is ok. We were worried!!” while others like Momoko shared warm wishes: “Thanks for updating and showing us your smile,” clearly not forgetting that Brian’s guitar prowess was still intact.
Interestingly, Brian’s health hiccup comes four years after a heart attack incident. He explained his absence from supporting his wife, Anita Dobson, at a BBC Proms performance, due to that cheeky little stroke deciding to crash the party—not exactly the kind of groove you want during concert season!
Brian May, famed guitarist of the legendary rock band Queen, has had his share of health struggles in recent years. After a heart attack four years ago and a gardening mishap that left him nursing an injury, this latest ‘minor stroke’ adds to a string of health hiccups.

May’s resilience shines through as he updates fans with his witty charm and warmth, reminding everyone that even rock legends aren’t invincible.
In a whirlwind of musical magic and health hurdles, Brian May has certainly shown that he’s still got the chops—both on stage and during recovery. His candid updates inspire hope and laughter, keeping fans engaged and concerned yet amused. It seems like the rock legend will be back to strumming in no time, as long as he takes it easy for now.
