She's Infected!

Filed under: Anglophilia > Amy Winehouse

winnno.jpg

She doesn't have tuberculoses, as the British media is reporting, but….

The still-hospitalized Amy Winehouse is suffering from a chest infection.

The Sun's report of Amy coughing up blood was refuted by a Wino mouthpiece.

As we previously mentioned, doctors reportedly discovered that the songstress has an irregular heartbeat, which - in addition to her severe drug abuse - could also be attributed to her years long battle with eating disorders.

A 'close friend' told the Brit rag, "Amy is in a bad way. Doctors are still struggling to control her heartbeat but the chest condition has been really worrying them."

Another source is quoted saying, "Things sound really bad, but at least now they have found something specific it will be easier to keep her in hospital and free from drugs.

Amy is still undergoing tests and doctors will soon decide whether she is able to keep her upcoming performing commitments later this month (Glastonbury, Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday celebration).

Her rep says, "She would really love to do the show – she always wants to do these things. But she will listen to her doctors."

We really hope that Amy stays on the right path after this latest hospitalization.

Don't count on it, though!

    meh she's supposed to be played oxegen in a couple of weeks but i'm guessing that wont happen
    didnt bother turning up last year either

    her health is more important i know but if she doesn't care about it then why should i. she shouldnt bother making these commitments if she isnt going to carry them out. decide what you want amy, a music career or drugs, because you cant do your job properly whilst doing both

    Perez, I hope they keep her in hospital for a year!!!! She is in very bad shape. It's a wonder she is even alive. I think she is an amazing talent and I want her to get well and make more music! She is probably suffering from malnutrition and her electrlytes are out of balance. If you don't have the right balance of potassium and sodium in your system it fucks up your heart really bad and can kill you. Her bones and her muscles are probably a wreck. I bet her organs inside are like some 90 year old!!! What a mess. She has eating disorders, she's an alcoholic and a hardcore drug addict. She is malnourished and probably is suffering npeumoia which is an opportunistic disease. She needs to really, really go away for a full year, or even two years and straighten out her health and her life. I think her parents are fucked up!!! Some of this stuff comes from her home life when she was growing up. I feel sorry for her. She is like a little animal. All fucked up.

    She is a walking corpse. I don't know why people hire her to perform when all she does is fumble and bumle on the stage and flash her stinky vajayjay. Why don't people put their money into people with better talent and wants to put on a good performance instead of this drug addicted arrogant piece of shit.

    It has been speculated that she is HIVpositive.All her symptoms are reminiscent of full blown AIDS malignancies.

  48. Chaka says – reply to this


    48

    This no joke. I have a suspicion that she has AIDS as well. It explains so much about her appearance, the skin legions and infections. This is all so sad. She probably contracted it through dirty needles.



  49. 49

    Re: lipst – i take great offense that you believe that all of the youth of today are the exact same. i'm almost 24yrs old. i've been to a bar once and to a club twice ( both were almost 2 years ago!) my fiace and i have been together for almost 7 years and have a beautiful son together. we both work very hard to provide for our child. besides working, i'm also going to college. am i a waste of skin? no, i think not!

    on another note, sometimes people need to hit rock bottom before they can get better. i hope that amy gets all the help she needs and turns her life around. i'm not really a fan of hers, but i wish her nothing but the best.

    Doesn't matter if she never does another drug in her life - damage is done.
    If this doesn't get her, the next thing will.
    We all need to move along and stop pretending that all she needs is our best wishes and she'll bounce back and never be a junkie again.

    She's gone…she did it to herself a long time ago.
    Thanks for the good album, TTFN.

    53

    I think it is horrible that these people get premium medical care while walking around giving Doctors and their Families the finger, taking their health for granted! All the while their are children and other people who struggle with finding medical care for NON-self induced issues such as Asthma and would give up anything to have the right if not just the means to the medical care these people think they deserve!

    Your right Perez! She has no intentions on staying sober. They can't even admit the real reason she is in there to begin with. Are we supposed to believe that she is in there with a common cold when she struts around with a hypodermic needle hanging from her arm! You can't feel sorry for people who don't want to help themselves and we should quit waisting valuable medical resources to save a life that doesn't WANT saving. I can show you a couple of Babies that would love the chance to live a normal life.

    This is very serious. Irregular heartbeat + chest infection can = stroke. It happened to my father. He was in hospital for bad asthma attack, they noticed he was in Afib and then put him on medication. He threw a clot and had a stroke. He is, thank God, fine, but Amy's in a very dangerous situation. All you kiddies out there reading Perez getting a laugh at celebrity trainwrecks: think twice before using drugs. Wino is the posterchild for where they can take you. Hopefully this will be the kick in the ass she needs to clean up. Her system is in total revolt…if she doesn't get clean now we'll soon be reading about her death.



  62. 62

    How bout Perez, after stating the facts in a story like this you say something heartfelt and maybe give some words of encouragement. It almost seems like you want more bad things to happen to her so you have some "juicy news" to post.

    She should go ahead and cancel the Hyde Park gig. Everyone will know the reason behind it (and probably expected it anyway), so no need for the PR to spin on this one. Make her stay put until she completes detoxing and gains a few pounds to top it off. Then she can think about going in the studio or going on tour again.

    -She has been an IVDA for years sharing dirty needles with anyone causing the heart murmur from an endocarditis or growth on the heart valves

    -Has a continuous series of unexplained and unusual illness

    -From her medical history as described in the media she has full blown AIDS

    -Damn right "She's infected"!

    She needs a Brittany Spears type intervention, at this moment she is dying….

    Amy will be this generation's Kurt Colbain, Jimi Hendrix, Mama Cass Eliot, Jim Morrison. She never rose to their levels since she went out of control before she really became a real star. She was just around long enough to show some promise. She will die within a year. She will be missed by today's music fans. They will cry for a while. Then they will move on. As with the others, it will have been a huge waste…….for nothing. As Perez says, drugs are bad and will kill you.

    Recently saw a photo exhibit which contained a very beautiful photo of Amy.With one exception, I commented to my husband, a dr. that she had clubbed fingers, AN INDICATION OF HEART CONDITION. Look it up, you will see this is a fact. It's amazing it hasn't been diagnosed and treated yet. Possibly due to the fact the UK has socialized medicine!The girl is on a one way course of destruction.



  75. 75

    Screw the concerts! She needs to go live with her parents in the country away from all the gossip so then she might finally get better and live a long, healthy, drug FREE life.

    We have to try to be OPTIMISTIC about Amy and hope that this is her wake up call. Performing at shows and festivals and what not should be the last thing on her mind or any of her execs that signed her up…back off, give her the medical attention she needs and let her fully recover - then help her get back to work with a healthy mind and HEART!

    I was just looking at a picture of Amy and her Blake husband from about a year ago when they were out on the street bleeding from the fight they had just had. My thought was that despite all the blood, etc.; Amy looked so much healthier that night than she does now She had some weight on her and her skin was clear and pretty. She's really gone down hill quickly and will not be around much longer if she doesn't rehab soon.

    re=2425508]Re: jelen[/re]

    -this is a much easier concept to grasp than the immaculate conception

    -symptoms lead to a diagnosis lab work confirms

    -pictures have shown bacterial infection (large lesions) at her injection sites there were due to bacteria from contaminated injected media, bacteria from skin or shared needles most frequent cause of bacterial endocarditis and vegetations and murmurs

    -extreme anorexia nervosa can cause heart murmurs but is a much less likely cause weight loss most likely due to heroin or HIV known in Africa as "the Slim Disease"

    - both can murmurs a stethoscope or an echo would differentiate

    -her chronic and unusual illness the type of skin rashes and rare lung infection in summer continued weight loss with the IV drug use strongly suggests AIDS which is only transmitted by virus and in the Western World is spread predominately by dirty shared needles.

    Since nobody is going to force her into rehab, and i'm pretty sure that a chest infection and irregular heartbeats will not deter her from drugs, we should let her die, and i mean that in the nicest way possible.
