Unusual symptoms suffered by a Manchester United supporter during matches of the team helped doctors spot a potentially severe condition. The doctors found out that the 58-year-old Manchester United fan suffered debilitating palpitations and light-headedness during close matches. They also believe that the stress involved when watching the matches have been the cause of these symptoms and might have even started them. The doctors ran a test with the fan to see when the symptoms were noticeable. When Manchester would play against lower league clubs the symptoms were entirely absent but when Manchester had to play against higher rivals these symptoms would start to show themselves.
I can relate to these feelings of stress when watching the matches though not combined with the symptoms. Football matches can take quite a toll on someone if the person is a fan or interested in football obviously. I experienced similar feelings when watching football myself but this was also only against the higher ranked opponents or the last World Championship cup final. I think that if the person really has these kind of ‘attacks’ during matches it might be better to skip them since doctors said it is a threatening condition if left untreated.
