Artist Health: Lil’ Wayne Still in Intensive Care Unit (ICU), TMZ Insists Condition has Not Improved

Lil Wayne Hospitalized for SeizuresThere has been a little brouhaha between Lil’Wayne’s camp and TMZ since my last report that the artist was in the hospital as a result of suffering from seizures. TMZ followed up with a subsequent report that Lil’Wayne was in critical condition. They are usually on the money with their reports. Nevertheless, they were attacked by Lil’Wayne’s camp as spreading lies and false stories. TMZ, however, refuses to back down and now reports Lil’Wayne remains in critical condition.

We will have to wait to see what exactly is going on. In the meantime, get well soon Weezy.

“Lil Wayne is still in rough shape … and remains in the intensive care unit at an L.A. hospital 6 days after being admitted for seizures stemming from a suspected drug overdose … TMZ has learned.

Sources tell us … Wayne’s condition has not improved enough to be moved out of the ICU … and he continues to be monitored very closely by staff at L.A..’s Cedars-Sinai hospital.

We know Wayne has been surrounded by friends and family since he was admitted to the ICU this past Wednesday … and we’re told the mood around Wayne’s bedside has been very serious.

Among Wayne’s visitors — Drake, Chris Paul, Nicki Minaj, Birdman and others.

TMZ broke the story … Wayne’s stomach was pumped at least 3 times after doctors suspected he had overdosed on the prescription drug codeine … the main ingredient in “sizzurp.””
