Arsenal midfielder Freddie Ljungberg has revealed the full extent of the migraines that have recently forced him to the sidelines.The talented Swede missed Arsenal's last three fixtures before returning on Boxing Day and has now spoken of his concerns.
Ljungberg has suffered with migraines from an early age and has conceded that they can strike at any moment - rendering him unable to play football on such occasions.
''It is worrying when it happens to me,'' said Ljungberg.
''I throw up and lose my vision and also lose all the feelings in my hands.
''It is quite severe in that way, although I know what it is because it's something I've had since I was 14 years old.
''When I got the migraine first of all it was really frustrating because I was starting to play well.
''The doctor told me I had to be off for a week to ten days but I rushed it a bit and had to take it easy for a week.
''The doctor told I'd been stupid and should have known better.
''But he told me that if I rest properly next time I shouldn't get another for two years or so, like before.''
