Tests find 'nothing wrong' with Limbaugh's heart

[47of74]

Source: CNN

Honolulu, Hawaii (CNN) -- Tests that were performed on Rush Limbaugh after he was admitted to a Hawaii hospital for chest pains "found absolutely nothing wrong," the conservative talk show host said Friday.

"It was a blessing," Limbaugh, 58, said at the Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, where he was admitted Wednesday.

Doctors gave Limbaugh an angiogram Thursday that revealed no evidence of arterial or coronary disease, he said.

The cause of his pain -- which he called "real" -- has not been determined. He said one possibility is a spasm in an artery.

Yeah, medically there may not be anything wrong with his heart.

[dionysus]

1. they were able to find it?

amazing...

[BrklynLiberal]

30. My exact thought.

[Xipe Totec]

45. It wasn't hard to find

Getting the key was another matter.

[bdamomma]

75. ........

:) :rofl:

[FarPoint]

51. My thoughts are he wanted

free narcotics......Until his cardiac blood test results come back...48 hours I think it was for my dad....they medicate the patient with morphine and stuff.

[dionysus]

54. interesting...

[wordpix]

71. lies re "taking medication for a back problem," then recanting own statement

snip: Limbaugh told emergency workers he was taking medication for a back problem, sources said. However, at Friday's press conference Limbaugh denied that he had been taking the medications. He declined to answer further questions. snip

80. Would erotic asphyxiation cause chest pains like this?

Just askin'

[cstanleytech]

64. Actually yes he has and its

a black diamond worth millions.

[saigon68]

67. Did they look at his Liver ?

[KamaAina]

90. Well, Queen's is the elite hospital in Hawai'i

they have the latest advanced electron microscopes 'n' stuff. :P

[Robb]

2. Two sizes

...too small.

[HopeHoops]

3. How can something be wrong with a thing that doesn't exist?

It was probably just another drug overdose.

[47of74]

6. My first thought was OMG he has a heart?!

[PSzymeczek]

25. My daughter lost her spleen

as the result of a car wreck. A few months later, she had to have an ultrasound for something or other, and the radiologist told her her spleen was normal. :wtf:

[Delphinus]

70. Now

THAT

is freaking scary!!!!!

[WriteDown]

78. Terrifying....

Was it the tech or the radiologist saying that?

[DJ13]

4. No really, its supposed to look like this for a Republican

[47of74]

63. Too big

[bdamomma]

76. could be Cheney's

[devilgrrl]

5. What heart?

:popcorn:

[BOSSHOG]

7. "it was a blessing."

Isn't that so sweet of rush, he's not only a fake patriot but a fake christian talking about blessings and all. No doubt getting him brownie points with the teabaggers who don't give a fuck about America and who are woefully ignorant of our countries history. How else could glen beck hoodwink them?

Three X wives couldn't be wrong.

[47of74]

12. Then that fat f--k was going on

Then that fat f--k was going on about how he got the best treatment in the world and that because of that there's nothing wrong with American health care.

[rpannier]

8. Shame really... NT

[buff2]

9. There goes my hope of having a good new year

:cry:

[BlueStater]

15. Some day...

And, yes, I would have been content if the fat fuck was no longer around to contaminate the planet. So sue me.

But only the good die young, I guess.

[Pool Hall Ace]

32. Fat fuck? I thought he lost a lot of weight recently.

Has he put it back on? If so, that can't be good for a person. What a shame. Yeah.

[47of74]

81. Doesn't matter how much he weighs...

...he's still not a nice person.

[Bucky]

10. Maybe he just got heartsick being exposed to the exotic foreign culture of this "Ha-Wai-I"

I'm with ya, Rush, you don't know what sorta freakish voo-doo those writhing savages were directing at your pure blooded American heart. Better juice up with some more good ol-fashioned "Vitamin OC", just like mama used to make when she wasn't too busy scrubbin' the kitchen floor.

[tomhayes]

11. It could have been gas/heart burn

No jokes - the first time I ever had heart burn i went to the cardiac unit thinking I was having a heart attack. I was 24.

[BlueStater]

16. Unlike most people, he farts from his mouth n/t

[Angry Dragon]

13. I do not believe he has a heart.............

[santamargarita]

14. I bet it's a hoax

:argh:

[Dr.Phool]

17. Did they check his head?

They'll find a lot of stuff wrong there.

[RedCloud]

44. Not if there is nothing there!

[Faygo Kid]

18. SOB will probably live to be 100.

He's got the genetics going for him, and will try to kill every poor person or ethnic minority every day of his miserable, sniveling, twisted life to come.

Gawd. I just hate the guy and what he has done to this nation.

[Tx4obama]

19. He was probably faking so he could get in there to see Obama's birth certificate! n/t

[glinda]

39. supposedly there were "closer" hospitals but he went to Obama's Birth Hospital

[thereismore]

20. It was an anxiety attack, I'm telling you. Many happy returns! nt

[SpiralHawk]

23. I'm going with the anxiety attack theory, too

With all the crap crudding up his soul, he knows he will have Karma up the Wazoo...

[WriteDown]

79. That or indigestion. My Dad had something similar happen years ago..

After dinner he started having chest pains and my father NEVER complains. The ambulance came and took him to the hospital where everything was determined to be alright, but it was SCARY when it happened.

[goclark]

85. But he said it was "nothing"

Can't taking too many little pills make your heart beat faster etc ?

There is something wrong with him but he's to busy saying there is nothing wrong with the Health Care system in America.

This joker is in the hospital for two days and believes he is Lord over the Health Care System.

What a piece of ugly work.

[truthisfreedom]

21. Attention-seeking whore.

[rateyes]

22. There must be a problem with the testing equipment. nt

[NJCher]

24. I hate it when I'm right

I posted this when we first found out about his trip to the hospital:

snip
Nothing--and I mean nothing--will come of this. Know how I know? It's a universal law. The bigger the jerk you are, the longer your life and the more opportunities there are for ^$^$ing everyone else over while making mega-millions for doing so.

Example: (Cheney pic)


Even losing massive amounts of weight and using prescription drugs will have no effect on the bloviator. What might take down a Luther Vandross will have no effect whatsoever on a Rush Limbaugh.

He'll be fine and back in the studio within the week. Mark my words!!

snip

Growl. :(


Cher

[BlancheSplanchnik]

38. I saw that post... I've wondered about that metaphysical law

I doubt I'm the only one who wonders, too.

I remember reading a quote from the Buddhist teacher, Nichiren, encouraging a disciple in the 13th century. Basically, the disciple was being persecuted by his feudal lord. Nichiren explained by using the metaphor that when one stays within the borders of a town, the debt collectors don't bother you too badly. But when you try to leave, suddenly they are all banging at your door.

In other words, when you are playing by the dirty rules of the world, the universal forces offer little resistance---but once you try to do good, step out of that stream of accepted negativity, the forces of resistance align against you. So constantly strengthening one's energy to continue forward is very important.

[SoapBox]

26. Faking for attention...or, drug use again!?!

...adickted to those drugs again, are we Mr. Limpdong?

And, about that BIG weight lose? 'splain it please!

[Techn0Girl]

27. Please show some charity even to Mr. Limbaugh by sending him a get-well note along with a box...

of his favorite cigars.

The more that do this the better.
Send him lots of cigars, please.

[tavalon]

31. Actually, this time of year I'd say we should send him ham,

honeybaked ham and homemade butter biscuits. Let's get a committee together and send him lots. It's the Christian thing to do!:evilgrin:

[bobhuntsman]

49. . . .and a pound of bacon!!!

[jmondine]

28. Then they put it back in the jar on his desk

[daleo]

29. There's something wrong with his heart

It just hasn't gotten to the stage where it shows up on tests.

[The Wizard]

33. Maybe the doctors

were yanking his chain so he'll continue on the path of self destruction.
The bloated Nazi propagandist and talking ass boil should have his assets seized for attempting to overthrow a duly elected government. It would set a good example for the rest of the GOP.

[LiberalArkie]

34. Maybe it was something he had never experienced before like HUNGER

[CreekDog]

35. Tests for Limbaugh's heart came back negative.

go figure. :shrug:

[Joanne98]

36. He told the ambulance guys he was on pain meds. But today he's denying that.

[Ian David]

37. Medication Seeking Behavior? n/t

[Ecumenist]

40. Awww, F%ck!

However, you have to have a heart as a prerequisite.

[Tx4obama]

41. Video Link Below: Rush Limbaugh Press Conference in Hawaii

[ronnie624]

73. What a loathsome, deceitful propagandist.

He can't possibly believe the medical care he receives is the norm for the working class and poor.

[RedCloud]

42. X-rays of his brain revealed nothing either.

[Historic NY]

43. he disappointed a lot of people........

[applegrove]

46. With blood tests they can tell if there has been any macro or micro

damage to the heart. I guess they found none. I hope his fans get that he must have been hysterical.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

47. I'm glad they didn't find anything. Maybe he'll drop dead next week.

[winyanstaz]

48. I think it was just that he is a big pain all over that is the problem

[Arrowhead2k1]

50. How can that fatassed drug addict have a perfectly functional heart still? nt

[UTUSN]

52. So. It's the DRUGS. n/t

[brooklynite]

53. "But I think that the most likely reason of all..."

"could have been that his heart was two sizes too small....."

[Sailing]

55. From Onion News. "Flawed tests find nothing wrong, where nothing exists."

[Hulk]

56. What a shame.

ZERO respect for this piece of shit. Disgusted he is even allowed to breathe the same air. Probably choked on a few too many pills at once, the f*cking idiot.

[marshall]

57. The jokes will write themselves

I'm already gearing up for the laughter because I can just imagine the field day the comics will have with this.

[penndragon69]

58. Nothings wrong if you cannot find a heart!

His chest pains were probably from too much
Oxycontin and Viagra in his booze.

[pitchforksandtorches]

59. Plenty of time this year to get hit by a bus.

[Suji to Seoul]

60. For a stroke, they will need to look up his ass?

[47of74]

61. Ahem...

[SemperEadem]

62. heart attack? sounds more like anxiety or cocaine/amphetamine abuse

to me.

You can't have heart troubles when you don't have a heart.

[JCMach1]

65. I had a case of pleurisy that must have been like a stabbing heart attack

[47of74]

72. I had pleurisy once myself

Pretty painful stuff, I couldn't draw a deep breath without racking pain running down my sides and my back. Fortunately it just took some medicine to knock it down.

[AlphaCentauri]

66. The problem is in his brain

thats how depress people feel pain in their chest

[panzerfaust]

68. Just cocaine induced vasospasm then

would be my guess

[katkat]

69. this situation is seriously endangering my karma. n/t

[Pharlo]

74. I think the man is a hypochondriac.

He always seems to be going to the hospital with something. It's fakers like this that drive up the cost of health care so much for the rest of us.

That's right, I blame Rush "Quick, run me to a medical professional! I need expensive tests and drugs for nothing!" Limbaugh and his ilk for the high cost of health care.

[KinMd]

77. He'll never use THAT dealer again

[muntrv]

82. What heart?

[dflprincess]

83. At least he could afford the tests to find out nothing is wrong

with the New Year comes a whole new set of dedcutibles and copays that will leave many Americans having to tell their doctors they can't afford a recommended test. I know a couple people with "coverage" who are in this situation because the test couldn't get schedule before January 1 (mainly because so many people were getting care they needed before the out of pockets reset).

[47of74]

84. Of course in the mind of that fat f--k...

...the people who can't have their tests now because their out of pockets reset are all socialistical communistical fascists who deserve whatever they got.

[TheWatcher]

86. So the Drug Addled Nazi, wanting Free Narcotics, and apparently ATTENTION

As well as wanting to serve some agenda that we will no doubt learn of later, Stages all of this for his amusement.

Does that about sum it up?

There are no words to describe the utter uselessness of this man's existence.

NONE.

[TheFarseer]

87. OMG - he's faking!!!

He's faking so he can provide cover for Republicans as they oppose healthcare! Also, he's covering up for Al Queda because they're trying to bomb our airplanes and he wants to make the Republicans look strong on terror and Obama look weak on terror!!! Don't you guys get it!!!!!!

sorry, just trying to think like dumbass Limbaugh

[kedrys]

88. Except for the complete and utter absence thereof

He prolly just had heartburn or cramps, that fat bastard... :nuke:

[CreekDog]

89. Tests found nothing wrong with my Rolls Royce also

:D

[woo me with science]

91. Nah.....Way too easy. nt

[LeftHander]

92. It didn't have anything right with it either...

cold and soulless...

Doctors said "I have never seen a black heart before...it works, pumps blood, just icy cold and coal black..."
