ZAKK WYLDE Issues Health Update - "All Is Peachy Keen"
September 1, 2009, 15 years ago
BLACK LABEL SOCIETY recently cancelled the remaining performances on The Pedal To The Metal Tour due to ZAKK WYLDE being diagnosed with blood clots in his lungs and leg.
Wylde checks in with the following update: "I spent three days in a hospital in Eugene, Oregon where they gave me a 24 hour drip of Heparin where they could monitor me. The next two days I received shots of Heparin into my stomach. Each shot lasted 24 hours. I was given a cat scan where they found three clots. I was then told each one of the clots passed through my heart. I just received an ultrasound. My left leg has a clot above the side and behind my knee, my calf and running into my heel. My right leg has a clot in between my calf and ankle. In a couple of days I'll have another CT scan to see how my lungs are doing. On the brighter side of Black Label they shaved off four inches from my love cannon so Barbaranne (Zakk's wife) won't be in such excruciating pain as I hammer and plough my love into her Thor style! Aside of that all is peachy keen!"
