Legendary rapper Erick Sermon suffered from a heart attack last week while working on a new song. In an exclusive report given this morning on shade 45 with Sway, the Green Eyed Bandit spoke about the entire ordeal from beginning to end of the scare that could have been more fatal than not on that day.
Erick is quoted as saying "I got two sharp pains on my left-hand side so I said maybe I am sitting wrong…" read full story and quote. He further describes his trip to the hospital, finally, as the pains increased into the next morning, where it was upon walking through the thresholds of the hospital, that these sharp pains were at their peak.
Reflecting on the whole scare of that day(s), Erick wanted to particularly point out to listeners that one should never avoid the warning signs. It was his prompt response that next morning that could very well have been the deciding factor of life or death for the rapper, as doctors had to treat him immediately upon entering the hospital facility and learning that his blood pressure was 200/190.
