Rush Limbaugh just addressed the media in Hawaii where he told reporters he did undergo an angioplasty, but he's doing just fine.

He did not suffer a heart attack or any kind of coronary episode and test show nothing wrong.

Limbaugh was hospitalized Wednesday night after experiencing chest pains.

Limbaugh made it a point to thank the staff of the hotel he was staying at, the Kahala Hotel and Resort, and he proclaimed (several times) the U.S. has the best health care service in the world.

He called the outpouring of support from fans very "humbling."

Uh, I don’t understand both having an angioplasty AND there not being a cardiac episode.

Arterial spasm, perhaps.

he did undergo an angioplasty...He did not suffer a heart attack or any kind of coronary episode and test show nothing wrong.

Angioplasty is the technique of mechanically widening a narrowed or obstructed blood vessel. There was something wrong.

He emulates me every chance he gets.

Glad to hear he is doing fine, the angioplasty sounds like no huge deal but I wonder if they put a stent in?

And maybe the Libs will shut up now...it is a medical fact...Rush does have heart!

Get well soon Maja Rushie!

He could have meant angiogram (a diagnostic test) instead of angioplasty.

They always find and use the least flattering picture of Rush — all the time. I have seen other pictures of Rush and I am convinced they deliberately make the selection they do.

He likely had an episode of angina, which is generally a precursor to a clotting episode (heart attack). Probably start nitro now and perhaps Plavix. He needs to drop another thirty pounds, too.

Angioplasty,eh? Well it looks like Rush would now be wise to change his position on the subject of exercise if he wants to reach 80....or even 70.
