Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker was hospitalized a couple days ago with what was initially called an undisclosed illness – later revealed to be a nasty bout of pancreatitis. Good news, though – Travis revealed on social media that his condition is much improved.
While he’s still in the hospital at this time, Barker revealed that he’s feeling “much better” after the pancreatitis that he also revealed was “life-threatening”. We’re glad he’s okay and on the mend.
I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great.
But After dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since.— Travis Barker (@travisbarker) July 2, 2022
During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube. This resulted in severe life-threatening pancreatitis.
