Kelsey Grammer back in the hospital with irregular heartbeat

]]> Remember when beloved Cheers and Frasier star Kelsey Grammer had a ’small’ heart attack last month. Well, he is back in the hospital. It is so scary. Even for celebrities- remember they are real people as well.  He had just come out last week and stated how scary his heart attack was. Mr. Grammer said that he almost died and that his heart actually stopped and needed to be hit twice to revive him.

Television star Kelsey Grammer is back in hospital with an irregular heartbeat, two months after suffering a heart attack the actor has said nearly killed him.

Kelsey presented to the hospital feeling faint and tired. Most likely his irregular heart beat is caused by his medication he is taking to help with his heart muscle and post MI effects. Good luck to him- hope he is back on his feet soon!

Red Sox Star David Ortiz in Hospital for Irregular Heartbeat

]]> Psychosomatic? The Boston Red Sox is currently 71 (wins)-61 (losses) and has lost four straight games. Their star player, David Ortiz aka Big Papi, contender for the American League’s Most Valuable Player award has been experiencing irregular heartbeat.

He received his first cardiovascular work-up on August 19th after the Red Sox were defeated 13-5 by the New York Yankees. And again on Monday before they lost to the Oakland A’s.

Drugs, including anabolic steroids, can cause heartbeat irregularities, but people should not jump to that conclusion because there are many possible causes, [Dr. Michael A.] Coady said. Stress and overtraining can also make the heart beat unevenly.

As miserable as they already are (and my husband’s one of them), Red Sox fans can’t be happy to hear this.
