(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Lindsay Lohan's father Michael went to hospital immediately after suffering severe pain in his brain.

The 52-year-old has experienced a slew of health issues in recent months.

Michael visited doctors this week as the discomfort he felt in his body became unbearable.

"I was in the gym lifting weights and started to get a really bad pain in my head and I thought I was having a stroke," he told Celebrityviplounge.com.

"It felt like someone had their hands on my head and were twisting my brain and then I went in and had a cat scan on my brain and it turned out that one of my veins seemed to be having some trouble getting some blood flow through and so they treated that but I have a heart stent and I'm on a hundred different types of medications so they were checking to make sure it wasn't an aneurysm."

Michael is happy that he is out of hospital.

"It was horrible. It really was," he said. "I'm feeling a lot better now. I rode my bicycle and I feel fine."

Michael suffered from a blood clot in his lung in December and underwent surgery late last year to unclog his artery and repair a blockage in his heart.

Michael remains estranged with his daughter Lindsay. (C) Cover Media
