Shrewsbury star Ryan Bowman has successful heart surgery after being rushed to hospital with palpitations | The Sun

SHREWSBURY TOWN striker Ryan Bowman has announced his heart surgery was a success.

The star hit the headlines when he was raced to hospital on October 9 after coming off against Ipswich holding his stomach and chest.


Doctors at Portman Road for the League One clash had to shock his heart back into a beat.

Over the following days it emerged that it was not the first time Bowman had suffered a heart issue.

However, the previous occasion was a lot less serious than when the 30-year-old was forced off after 35 minutes earlier this season and taken to Ipswich Hospital.

Bowman complained of heart palpitations with his heart said to be racing at 250bpm.
