You’re welcome.

Going throught his myself has opened my eyes to how horrible it is for anyone sufferning from chronic, long-term pain.

I could not judge Rush when he had problems and could not judge him now.

It’s not an easy life, especially when you have people telling you to “just deal with it”, “give you what you love to do/life” or the hypocrites on the left smoking their bongs while condeming a man with a serious health condition when one of the most effective treatment leads easily to at least physical addiction/dependence.

“Limbaugh was sitting in a chair in his ninth-floor hotel room at the Kahala when emergency crews arrived, sources said. He told medical crews that he was taking medication for a back problem, sources said.”

Hmmm, SOURCES SAID...they’d better not reveal private medical information or they’re going to be sued!!!

Get well soon Rush. Prayers up!

From personal experience, when your quality of life deteriorates severely. When your body begins to be harmed from chronic pain (high blood pressure, heart problems, additional injuries are all common) a person weighs their options and decides if the risk is worth it.

Having a life back, for me, was worth the risk. I’m sure Rush fully understands this.

WE do not need to start rumor mongering or questioning what he is doing to care for himself. Let DU, TMZ etc handle that.

[...]

Excellent post.

Funny, I have recently fantasized how we could some how keep Rush “alive” forever by preserving his brain and attaching some mechanism to it that would allow a computer generated voice to broadcast his shows.

Thank GOD for Rush, truly.

I just heard news on ABC and they’re already bringing in his previous addiction. SOURCES said...who? No, it’s just an excuse for them to bring up his past. Creeps!

Normally in a situation like this I would go over to Twitter or DU to monitor people’s responses, but I can’t do it tonight. There’s just so much hate. It’s beyond me how someone can live a normal life with that much hatred inside. I would think it would get rather old eventually.

I wondered the same thing. He mentioned on the air, sometime in the last month, that he was in quite a bit of pain (in his back) but wouldn’t take any pain medication.

He implied that we know why.

Prayers up, Rush!

He needs a food taster...

When I first heard of his peril I was thinking exactly that. But I'll play armchair doctor and suggest he had a scare due to heartburn from the meds for his back.

Been there and got the t-shirt (though not from meds so much as more mundane upper GI issues and lousy diet). Acid reflux can cause many of the classic symptoms and indeed I have been prescribed nitro pills for the pain. Only took it one time because it seemed to just make things worse.

FYI Dear Reporter, Norco is just another form of Hydrocodone (Vicodin). I’m “on” Norcos for my recent hip replacement surgery. The difference is the amount of Tylenol in each. So they are basically one and the same. The Norcos have less Tylenol(acetaphetamine). Which is what f’s up your liver.

I think they just wanted to add it to the list to make it sound like he’s some strung out junkie.

And, btw, anytime ANYONE is taken to the hospital, it is always “serious”. It’s the word “critical” that is used when you should perhaps start to worry.

Love you Rush. Get better and tell us what really happened.

BTW, anybody, this new source, Lib???? Neutral???

Just in the last few weeks, Rush had been complaining about the severe back pain he had been experiencing—he even had to do the show standing up at some point. He mentioned then that he could not take any serious medication for it. I would imagine that the EMT/Paramedics want to know every medication he had been taking prior to the event...even Tylenol or Flintstone vitamins.
