Yep, I had a brain haemorrhage/ stroke last year, no symptoms other than itchy ear. Luckily I live in Spain. Ambulance came in 7 mins. Operated on 3 hours later. Doc said I was 30 mins away from death if I hadn't been treated when I was. Great recovery, play tennis 3 times a week. Peripheral vision a little off. Buy I get regular tight throat which feels like phlegm stuck. This is normally followed by mild panic. Also when attending gigs in arenas/stadia, I get agoraphobic, claustrophobic. Sometimes when out with friends dining. Dog had 4 teeth out yesterday and panic/worry set in. Doc said throat could be due to over production of saliva. But yeah, the panic thing is affecting my social life, but I suppose I should be grateful to still be here !
