Jake The Snake Roberts recently revealed a frightening brush with his health on his The Snake Pit podcast. The WWE legend shared that he was hospitalized after falling seriously ill, leading to a series of alarming diagnoses.
Im doing a little bit better, Roberts began. I had a pretty scary moment last week. I got incredibly sick, and I wound up going to the hospital on Friday night. Dont remember a damn thing. Its pretty scary. Come to find out I had pneumonia, and thats not a good thing for me. I already have COPD, and to get pneumonia is like youre flirting with disaster there.
Roberts explained that his hospital stay uncovered more health issues. I was in the hospital for four days, and very grateful to find out that Ive got a couple of issues I did not know. One is I had blood in my urine, didnt know that. Another thing is, apparently Im leaking blood somewhere in my gut, and thats causing my iron levels to be low. Thats not a good thing. Then to top it off, I got a problem with my ticker. But by going in, I caught it, and we got to go have a couple of procedures done, and itll be all hunky dory then.
The wrestling icon admitted the experience left him shaken. Ive got this cough, but Im doing better. Its quite the surprise, man. Next thing I know, Im waking up in a hospital. That was weird.
Roberts also discussed the symptoms leading up to his hospitalization, citing a fever, gut pain, and blood in his urine as signs that something was wrong.
Jake Roberts remains optimistic as he prepares for upcoming medical procedures, but his ordeal is a sobering reminder of the importance of addressing health issues early. Fans worldwide are wishing him a speedy recovery as he navigates these challenges.
