Brad Rowe has been hospitalized.
It appears that Brad Rowe is facing some tough adversity. The bodybuilder recently reported that he’s been hospitalized with intestinal obstruction. It has proven to be a pretty rough week for the bodybuilding veteran indeed.
We often speak on injuries being a major issue for athletes. But internal health is something else many don’t consider until there’s signs of an issue. Unfortunately Brad Rowe has fallen pray to a nasty condition that has rendered him bedridden.
But besides the intestinal problems it appears that Brad Rowe is also facing other issues as well. The bodybuilder also reported that he’s suffering from knee issues as well. After spending a week in the hospital it’s clear that Rowe is at his wits end.
In the Instagram post below, Brad Rowe gives the full details on his current situation.
Its been one of those weeks!
Intestinal obstruction forced me to come to the ER this morning. They inserted a tube in my nose to my stomach to suction out in hopes the blockage releases. I may need surgery if it doesn’t or the surgeon feels there is a mechanical issue which caused the first obstruction last Thursday then this one that started to form yesterday. I’m here till late Friday night minimum they told me ?♂️
Monday I had an MRI on my knee and there is an area that isn’t healing efficiently. I have a nerve that is causing sharp shooting pain in that same area. We are hoping that after seeing a nerve specialist to freeze the nerve that there will be less inflammatory responses and allow the tissue to heal properly. If not I go under the knife to clean out some of the unhealthy tissue.
Add onto all that a few personal and professional roadblocks/challenges and it’s been an extremely trying week. But just keep my head down and take it moment by moment and I’ll get through it all like I always do and learn some things in the process.
I truly appreciate everyone that has reached out ? sorry if I’m not getting back to everyone but the messages are seen and appreciated!
This is certainly a tough break for Brad Rowe as he hints at both professional and physical hardships making his life a living hell at the moment. Hopefully he’ll get some good news and makes a full recovery.
