Lil Wayne has been released from hospital after suffering epileptic seizures over the weekend. He has been ordered by doctors to rest for two weeks.
According to a report from TMZ, sources close to Tha Carter V rapper say the seizures were a result of an extremely busy schedule mixed with a lack of sleep. The incident had nothing to do with Weezy taking sizzurp (a codeine-based cough syrup also referred to as ‘lean’).
TMZ said:
Our sources say Wayne’s been advised to avoid overdoing it on tour, and he’ll be taking 2 weeks off for some much needed R&R … his next show is September 23 and we’re told he’ll be there.
Wayne reportedly was healthy during back-to-back concerts before the seizures occurred but would hang out after shows and then head straight to the recording studio with no rest.
Weezy will now take a short break from touring before heading back on the road Sept. 23.
In 2016, Wayne suffered another bout of seizures on a private flight to California. As it often happens, fans of the rapper assumed the seizures were a result of the rapper’s use of codeine-based cough syrup sizzurp, but Weezy told TMZ the incident occurred after he didn’t take his epilepsy medication.
Wayne has reportedly suffered from epilepsy and seizures since childhood.
