Krayzie Bone says during his recent health scare, doctors did not expect him to live.
In September, Krayzie was admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles, California after coughing up “large amounts of blood.”
Doctors gave the rapper a CAT scan where they discovered an artery was leaking inside one of his lungs. He was forced to undergo immediate surgery and was in critical condition.
“I didn’t even know how serious it was until I woke up. They informed me of everything that was going on,” he told Spin Magazine. “The doctors in the ICU, I don’t know if it’s what they see every day, but their outlook was grim. They were like, ‘He might not make it out of here. The lung function on the left side is completely dead. He will need a lung transplant.’ This is everything they’re telling my family when I’m in the process of waking up.”
He continued: “When I wake up, everybody’s looking grim. They tell me this and I’m like, ‘OK.’ They were gearing me up for a lung transplant, so they sent me right over to the Ronald Reagan Center because my primary doctor, when she heard them talking about a transplant, she was like, ‘Wait, let’s slow down here. This is my patient. I just had a visit with him and he just had one of the best breathing tests. We need to slow this down. I don’t think he needs a lung transplant.’ That’s why I was in the hospital for so long. They were doing a whole evaluation.”
Fans are happy the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony MC pulled through.
