The 61-year old singer has suffered minor head, neck, and should injuries. It’s too early to say what the extent of his injuries are. Someone posted this video on YouTube, and the fall does look pretty serious to me. To just do a turn and lose your footing off of stage like that has to be pretty traumatic. Here’s the clip (the fall is about halfway through the video): We wish Steven well and hope he recovers quickly.

I think being famous would stink. Especially when you’re sick. With the recent report that one hospital leaked records from Farrah Fawcett’s recent medical stay is just one example. Now, Kaiser Permanente’s Bellflower Hospital has been fine $250,000 for “failing to keep employees from snooping in the medical records of Nadya Suleman.” While I think it’s a great idea that a hospital can be fined when their employees snoop into medical records, it’s an even bigger threat when that employee decides to sell that information to the tabloids. I know we all have a fascination for the lives of celebrities, but people deserve their privacy. Image: sxc.hu. Share and Enjoy: Post fro...

He found that men with longer ring fingers relative to their index fingers seem to be better at high-stakes, fast-paced stock trading as compared to those whose index finger was almost as long as their ring finger. Honestly. I’m not making this up. Researchers gathered together 44 male stock traders working in high finance arenas making quick decisions with large amounts of money and measured their right hands. The study then followed these traders for the next 20 months and discovered that those whose ring fingers were much longer than their index fingers made 11 times more money than those with the shortest ring fingers. Does this mean that if I’m looking for a stocktrader, I need to look at his h...

The deep-voiced soul singer died after he was found unconscious at his residence. Very sad- many prayers to his family. However, it was also reported that no autopsy had been performed. No official determination has been released by the medical examiner’s office or filed with the Memphis health department, which issues death certificates. via Perez Hilton and AP Tags: cause of death, celebrity health, died of stroke, heart-disease, isaac hays, music manShare This (Source: A Hearty Life) A Hearty Life blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1700992 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 21:06:35 +0100 1700992 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1512129&cid=t_186434_87_f&fid=34872&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthbolt.net%2F2008%2F06%2F12%2Ffarrah-fawcetts-on-a-wing-and-a-prayer%2F Former Charlies Angel Farrah Fawcett has been fighting a rare form of cancer since 2006 when she was diagnosed with anal cancer.  According to the American Cancer Society, anal cancer is rare (an estimated 4,650 cases in 2006) but the number is rising, with those most affected being female and in their early 60’s. Farrah’s spent the last couple of years fighting not only the cancer with chemotherapy and radiation treatments, but also the tabloids and paparazzi in an effort to protect her privacy. Having cancer is bad enough, but having to live it out in the eyes of the paparazzi and tabloids that ‘enthusiastically ‘ announce to the world that ‘”Farrah’s Cancer Is Back!” (as the National Enquirer did in 2007) must be the pits. Seems it&#8217...

Today, through his publicist, Paul Newman at age 83 stated that he is doing nicely. Paul Newman today reacted to a rash of internet and television stories that he has lung cancer by telling the world he is “doing nicely”. The American actor, 83, issued the short statement through his publicist, Jeff Sanderson. No further details were given. At age 83, it is impossible that a man doesn’t a health condition in one way or another. But the media is so harsh sometimes, especially to old celebrities who has retired from the limelight. Like Paul Newman. Let us just let him live in peace. Read more from UK Times Online. Tags: celebrity, celebrity health story, cele...

Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer earlier this year, Patrick has no intention of hidding in the corner. He’s undergone radical chemotherapy treatment at the Standford University Cancer Center in Palo Alto and the word is that the tumor has shrunk but not as much as his doctors had envisioned. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive forms of cancer with the 5 year survival rate of around 5% of those in the advanced stages. However, if diagnosed at the earlier stages and treated aggressively as Patrick’s has been,...

Unfortunately, Alba had told Extra that she was more paranoid about breastfeeding than giving birth! One can only hope she attended a La Leche League meeting, and read “Ten Tips on How a Pregnant Woman Can Prepare for Breastfeeding” and the blog carnival on “ what I didn’t expect when I was expecting.” Tori Spelling gave birth today to her daughter with Dean McDermott, Stella Doreen McDermott. She worked hard to breastfeed their first child Liam. Hopefully she finds it easier the second time around! Angelina Jolie also has experience breastfeeding, but let’s hope she has done some...

So expect to see some posts over the coming days featuring some of your favorite (or not so favorite) celebrites and what they are up to (or not up to) healthwise. Personally, I try not to follow the celebrity trail too much, but of course it’s often hard to miss. The media make sure of that. But there’s good celebrity health coverage and then there’s bad celebrity health coverage. I’m going to try and stick to the good, and avoid the bad and the ugly. For example… A new study in Australia has found that Kylie Minogue’s breast cancer leads to screening spike in young women. Seems that after the pop star announced, in 2005, that she had breast cancer &#822...

We are doing our first celebrity week here at the health and wellness channel. Yes, I will still be on topic about diabetes, but I will bring you as much information that pertains to Hollywood and alike as I can. I look forward to it and think it will be fun.  Who doesn’t want to know about Ms. Halle Berry being diabetic while pregnant or David Wells playing professional baseball with diabetes.
