Well, now, the M\u00f6tley frontman has shared that he actually suffered at least four strokes \u201cthroughout the years\u201d \u2014 and this last one may just have been the worst.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t\u201cTwo of \u2019em I didn\u2019t even know I had. One of \u2019em was a mini stroke that happened, and I just lost feeling in my hand. And that was it,\u201d he told Eddie Trunk on SiriusXM\u2019s <em>Trunk Nation<\/em>. \u201cAnd I got over that pretty quickly. But then this last one, it was a big one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tNeil said doctors were able to discover that he had suffered the other strokes because they had \u201cscarred right around the same spot\u201d and that there were four scars in his brain due to strokes. The last of the health scares really affected Neil\u2019s mobility, and he was forced to learn to walk again.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t\u201cMy left leg wouldn\u2019t work, and my left arm wouldn\u2019t work. So I had to get help out of bed. I couldn\u2019t push myself up to get myself comfortable in bed. And I had to have help,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd slowly but surely, the sensation came back in my legs. And I had to learn to walk again. I went from a wheelchair to a walker to a cane to \u2014 I can walk now, but for five months it was just off and on, not knowing what\u2019s gonna happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tHe continued: \u201cAnd the doctor said that I probably wouldn\u2019t be on stage again. And I was, like, \u2018No, man. I can\u2019t do that.\u2019 And so I just tried. I worked my butt off to get back in shape to go on stage. And I was really sad to have to cancel those shows, but I just wasn\u2019t ready yet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tBack in March, Neil had shared that the band \u2014 which he comprises with Tommy Lee, Nikki Sixx, and new guitarist John 5 \u2014 would push back the residency from March to September over a vocal procedure. \u201cMy health is my top priority so I can bring you the awesome shows you deserve, and I can\u2019t wait to return to the stage,\u201d Neil\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DGykIAKS-Qc\/?igsh=eGx0ODRhbTlwMWF4\">said in a statement<\/a>\u00a0at the time.

While his voice wasn\u2019t affected, \u201cIt takes a while to get your brain to start moving your legs, for them to do what your brain wants to do. You try to walk, but it doesn\u2019t come out right,\u201d he explained, adding that he\u2019s around 95 percent back to \u201cwhere I was before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/pmc_0aaa4_rollingstone?q=https%3A%2F%2Fticketmaster.evyy.net%2Fc%2F256585%2F264167%2F4272%3Fu%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ticketmaster.com%252Fmotley-crue-the-las-vegas-residency-las-vegas-nevada-09-12-2025%252Fevent%252F2E00613CC327326A%26subId1%3DRS&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rollingstone.com%2Fmusic%2Fmusic-news%2Fmotley-crue-vince-neil-stroke-1235426749%2F&amp;ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&amp;event_type=click&amp;trx-iid=iid1758817533385ieb\">M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce: The Las Vegas Residency<\/a> kicked off at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas earlier this month.
