[quote]Nobody was more surprised to learn that former Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz had a mini-stroke last Friday than the actor and musician himself.
"I consider myself to be very healthy," says Muniz, who spoke to PEOPLE from his Phoenix home Tuesday afternoon. "I'm home and trying to relax and get ready to get back to work. My biggest problem is I always want to be working, going non-stop. So it's a wakeup call to take a little time and relax a bit."
Muniz, 27, says after a morning workout he hopped on his motorcycle to pick up a few things at the home of his fiancée Elycia Marie Turnbow's mother across town. As he was driving, the vision in his right eye began to blur.
"I thought I had something on the visor of my helmet. I couldn't focus out of my right eye," he says. "By the time I got to her mom's house I pretty much had no vision in my right eye."

By the time Muniz got home from the short drive, he felt even worse.
"I was really dizzy and in a lot of pain in my whole body and my head. My hands were numb. I didn't really have good balance and I was almost dropping the bike. I never had this before. I was like 'What's going on?' " he says, baffled at how quickly the symptoms came on and then intensified. "I felt like I was getting stabbed in the head – the worst headache you could ever think of. I couldn't see anything."
Less Invincible
Turnbow was home when he arrived and tried to assess his condition. "But I was saying things and she said, 'You're not speaking English,' " Muniz says. "It was really weird."
Muniz, who plays drums for the band Kingsfoil, went to a Phoenix area hospital, where he was treated and released. He's resting and still under a doctor's care, but plans to head out on an eight-date Northeast tour with the band this weekend.
Though Muniz admits he eats "like a 7 to 10-year-old-kid," he lives a healthy lifestyle.
"I never in my life had a sip of alcohol or even touched a drug," he says. "I take a lot of pride in that."
But the incident did leave him shaken. "They say it is usually a warning of maybe what could happen in the future," says Muniz. "It's changed my mentality when I'm going to eat now. I feel a lot less invincible."[/quote]

Glad it didn't do any permanent damage, I actually like Frankie. He's a reasonably good actor, doesn't do stupid shit to get attention, and.. shit, I grew up watching MITM.
Frankie is a great guy, glad he's okay.

I'm certain that the guy he said that too was being an asshole.. as much twitards are.
Like a few months ago when a bunch of dicks were telling a chick to kill herself over Twitter

Idk if that's karma, that's pretty funny and the person probably insulted him based on the response.
it's weird how in my eyes he still looks the same despite having
facial hair
and like a jaw or whatever

Looking at this picture makes me imagine him as Jesse and that opens a whole new can of worms
It's so fucking weird seeing him as an adult. In my mind's eye he's still that kid from Malcolm in the Middle, he just randomly grew a beard.
Glad he's okay. He's one of the few child stars I actually like.

Fuck Karma, that was totally called for.
[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;38714917]Looking at this picture makes me imagine him as Jesse and that opens a whole new can of worms[/QUOTE]
that would be just too bizarre if he got the role of Jesse. It would be like a non-canon fan-fiction of Malcolm in the Middle.
First the Koalas now this? Poor Frankie...
40million, how?!
I love this guy, but i was worried it was bryan cranston.
[QUOTE=Puni;38715024]40million, how?![/QUOTE]
Malcolm in the Middle was a pretty popular show.
Didn't it end up having like four seasons or something?
[QUOTE=Puni;38715024]40million, how?![/QUOTE]
Malcolm in the middle was an absolute money printing machine

try like 7
[QUOTE=Puni;38715024]40million, how?![/QUOTE]
Malcolm in the Middle would have got him $100k per episode at the height of its success.
[editline]5th December 2012[/editline]
probably more since he was the main character.
Oh thank GOD it's not Bryan Cranston. But still, Poor Frankie. Strange at 27 he had a stroke however.
All that money at 19...
thought it was Bryan Cranston when I read the headline. He IS a shitton older than the other actors in the show, except for lois.
[QUOTE=Puni;38715024]40million, how?![/QUOTE]
It was a great fucking show
I always thought that if you worked out and lived healthily you could afford to eat a bit shittily. This is kind of worrying.
That thing he said about his right eye... I get that in migraines a lot
that show is probably the worst I have ever seen
[QUOTE=Nemisis116;38715330]It was a great fucking show[/QUOTE]
I had never seen the show until my roommate started watching it on Netflix. Its actually pretty damn funny.

Wasn't he a professional race car driver for some time too?
Not to mention the fact that he was in several movies too

he was probably a millionaire at 16..
I thought it was Cranston at first but then I realised he would probably be known as Breaking Bad star not Malcolm in the Middle star.
Why would anyone assume from the title that Cranston had a stroke. Do we actually consider him, "that star from Malcolm in the Middle" at this point?
All the best to Frankie. Always seemed like a cool guy.
