Los Angeles, Jan 2 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Radio show host Rush Limbaugh has said that the doctors didn’t find anything wrong with him. He was hospitalized earlier this week in Hawaii, with terrible chest pains that had him and his fans on the edge.
The fifty-eight year old Rush Limbaugh underwent an angiogram, which is in reality an imaging of the arteries and heart, to determine what caused the severe chest pains, “like I have never experienced before,” he said. “They found absolutely nothing wrong. It was a blessing. No arterial disease, no coronary disease whatsoever,” Limbaugh told reporters at Honolulu’s Queen’s Medical Center, where he was rushed on Wednesday from a nearby resort. The doctors said that he didn’t get a heart attack and that he doesn’t have any heart disease.
Despite the green signal by the doctors that they didn’t find anything wrong it was quite a wakeup call for the hugely popular radio show host. And it is still not known when he would return to his hosting duties. His radio host has about 20 million listeners weekly.
Even though he was unwell and was talking to the media about his health but he couldn’t refrain from taking a dig at the Democrats and their top policy priority — healthcare reform that aims to give coverage to 47 million uninsured Americans and lower costs. “Based on what happened to me here, I don’t think there is one thing wrong with the American healthcare system. It is working just fine,” he said.
