FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Uni student with big plans for future complained about migraines weeks before death inquest hears - The Untold Story

A "kind-hearted and gracious" university student died a few weeks after complaining about tiredness and migraines, an inquest has heard. Johnny Alfrey, 22, who suffered fatigue and vomiting had spoken to doctors about his health problems in the weeks leading up to his death.

He died on June 24, 2022. Despite tests revealing Johnny had an irregular heart rhythm and 'abnormal liver function', doctors could not explain his symptoms.

On Thursday January 5, an inquest at Rochdale Coroner’s Court heard that Johnny, from Littleborough, began feeling 'seriously unwell' in May of last year. As reported by Manchester Evening News, his mum Julie Alfrey told the hearing that her son began complaining of fatigue and said he was experiencing ‘heaviness in his legs’ when walking.
