Amy Winehouse Has Early Stage Emphysema | Irregular Heartbeat


Amy Winehouse has been diagnosed with early stage emphysema and an irregular heartbeat. Unless she stops smoking drugs, she will have to wear an oxygen mask.

According to her father:
There are nodules around the chest and dark marks. She has 70 percent lung capacity.~ap

Amy Winehouse, 24, fainted last Monday after signing autographs from some of her fans traveling from Canada to meet her. She had walked back into her North London home before the unfortunate incident. She was admitted to a hospital as a precaution. She ended up staying for a week while doctors were trying to determine what caused her to pass out.

According to reports,
Winehouse will stay on schedule to sing at a concert in London on Friday celebrating the 90th birthday of Nelson Mandela, the South African Nobel Prize-winner, and plans to take part in the Glastonbury music festival the following day.~ap

It looks like Amy Winehouse is on the road to recovery. Let's hope she realizes she must stop smoking drugs so she can continue to enjoy doing what she does best and live a quality life. Her father has pleaded for her "drug-dependent" friends to stay away.
