Glenn Beck: ‘I’m not Dying’

[RamboLiberal]

An update on Glenn Beck‘s health issues: He’s going to be fine.

On his radio show this morning Beck said doctors have ruled out cancer, multiple sclerosis and lupus. But he does have non-diabetic neuropathy — nerve damage which can be brought on by a vitamin B deficiency, trauma or alcoholism. Beck is a recovering alcoholic. Doctors say half of his vocal chords are paralyzed, which could be just a virus.

Beck spent the past four days at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Utah. “I had two MRIs, two CAT scans and then I was going into the PET scan, and they said ‘we’ve read all of the others we don’t think you have cancer.’”

“I want you to know, I’m not dying,” said Beck.

Nice you can afford all those tests Beck. But you have no f'in sympathy for those who can't.

2. IMHO Justice would be if his vocal chords were paralyzed enough

he couldn't broadcast.

3. Wow, I listed vitamin B deficiency as a possible cause last week from a simple online search.

[ejpoeta]

4. too bad all his vocal cords aren't paralyzed. and it must be nice to be able to

just go have a bunch of mris and other tests that you would say were unnecessary for someone whose insurance were having to pay for it. i'm glad he doesn't have cancer. i wouldn't wish that on anyone. but i wish he would gain some damned perspective.

[Ikonoklast]

14. Hey, someone said there was free beer in this thread?

I get here, and it's about Glenn Beck not dying?

What the heck?


No free beer, Beck is still alive...major bummer all around.

[nolabear]

15. Hysteria. Textbook hysteria.

He's seeing the wrong kind of doctor. I'm not kidding.

[Myrina]

17. +10

:silly: indeed.

[Mimosa]

27. That's how a doctor I know had diagnosed Beck when this story hit. n/t

[Javaman]

16. so the brain damaged one over reacted to gain sympathy from his moronic

audience.

color me surprised.

yes, mr. becker, you are dying. We all are. We start dying from the day we are born.

So yes, as unbelievable as it is to you, mr. becker, you will die.

18. Half of his vocal chords are paralyzed: proof of a loving Creator?

:shrug:

[Lucy Goosey]

26. Proof of a half-loving Creator at best

:)

[SoCalDem]

20. Fancy insurance, courtesy of that UNION job he has with the network

He's luckier than most..and undeserving too.

21. "I have never killed a man,

but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

I think that about sums up my feelings on Beck.

[SargeUNN]

22. Glad Beck isn't dying but

I am so concerned for his health I really think he needs to retire and fade into the twilight zone.

[johnnie]

23. Doctors say half of his vocal chords are paralyzed

Too bad it isn't the half that spews all the bullshit.

[Forkboy]

24. More's the pity.

[CBGLuthier]

28. Damn. That's a Shame. Cancel the Party.

[SOS]

29. $10,000 in useless tests

Which are unavailable to 51 million Americans who might actually need them.

What a hypochondriac.
Everybody over 40 has some "neuropathy".
It's called middle age.

[BlueIdaho]

30. Well shucks...

So much for the power of prayer.

[FirstTimeVoterAt37]

31. This is turning into a regular thing

Going blind, numb hands, cancer, anal implosion, he comes up with a new ailment once or twice a year. Yet another clear indication of the intelligence of his audience.

[thereismore]

32. He wants to better the "I'm not a witch" statement. nt

[Edweird]

34. Wait.

[lyonn]

36. Just gotta K & R this for the terrific responses and laughs! nt
