KEVIN SORBO was known for his physique while playing the role of “Hercules.” But the actor reveals in the new issue of Neurology Now that behind the scenes, his physical health was suffering. Sorbo says he suffered from three distinct strokes. “I felt like I had been transformed overnight from a youthful, carefree jock into someone who needed to grasp the backs of chairs and counters for an arduous five-yard trip to the bathroom,” Sorbo says. “I went through two years of hell before I began to feel like myself again.” Kevin’s book, “True Strength: My Journey from Hercules to Mere Mortal and How Nearly Dying Saved My Life,” comes out next month.
