Judge Judy Sheindlin was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital Wednesday morning after experiencing intestinal pain earlier today. An LAFD paramedic ambulance responded to a 911 call from KTLA Studios in Hollywood at 9:12 a.m.
The 68-year-old television judge, who was at the studio to tape a show, was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after “feeling funky this morning.”
Rep Gary Rosen told RadarOnline: “The judge was feeling nauseous and had some intestinal discomfort and decided to go to the hospital to get it checked out. They are keeping her overnight for tests.”
Judge phoned Harvey Levin at TMZ to chat about her medical condition. She mentioned that she missed a meeting this afternoon with some Vegas folks who wanted to talk about a Judge Judy slot machine.
Regarding her health status, she said: “I just needed a day to chill. I’m really fine. I wanted to go back to work this afternoon. I’m exhausted. I’m just tired. A lot of things just zoned together, including the bad news of the world.”
She continued: “At my age, I know my body. My body is fine. I’m gonna go home tomorrow. It was a bad idea to fly home tonight.”
