Kelsey Grammer has been hospitalized again for heart-related troubles. In early June he had a heart attack that has variously been labeled as minor and something that almost killed him – so it’s a little difficult to know just how severe the initial damage was. According to reports, Grammer felt faint and/or had an irregular heartbeat. Apparently it’s hard to get a clear and accurate account of what’s gone on, depending on the source. Grammer is being kept in the hospital for monitoring for a couple days, along with some medication changes.
A little less than two months after Kelsey Grammer suffered a heart attack in Hawaii, the veteran actor admitted himself into a New York hospital for an irregular heartbeat. The actor was in town to promote his new film, Swing Vote, when “he felt a little faint, so he checked himself into the hospital,” the actor’s publicist, Stan Rosenfield, tells E! News.
Rosenfield added that it was likely Grammer’s medication, which he has been taking since his June heart attack, that was to blame.
“Doctors felt a medication adjustment was necessary, so they are keeping him there for a day or so just to monitor.”
As a result of his unexpected hospital stay, the 53-year-old Emmy winner will likely skip several planned TV appearances. He was originally scheduled to guest on Late Night With Conan O’Brien tonight and Live With Regis and Kelly tomorrow.

On Thursday Celebitchy wrote about Grammer’s People interview in which he talked about his heart attack. His phrasing makes it sound like his reps originally said it was something minor, even though they had to restart his heart twice. Hopefully that’s not the case this time, and it really is a minor situation that can be corrected with a medication change.

this is not good

I remember Camille from her cameo in the Howard Stern Movie “Private Parts’.
Hope he is alright. I loved his show.

She could be a heartbeat away from all those “Cheers” and “Frasier” syndication profits…think of the bling, people…
Still, that doesn’t help me any. Get well soon, Frasier!

I just love him! His wit and defined charm always gave my brain a jolt. Hope he’s doing well! Hope they both are…

I will always be fond of this man & wish him the best.

I can’t look at this couple without thinking of them having someone else carry their baby because Kelsey didn’t want it to mess up her body. I can’t get her irritable bowel situation out of my head either. I feel there are certain things that are OK to suffer in private.
In regards to his heart situation,,,you can’t do mountains of coke and expect to have the heart of a cardio instructor,,,take it for what it’s worth. I will save my empathy for the deserving, whether I liked his shows or not. -
I’m wondering about this statement from the publicist.
An irregular heartbeat and feeling faint are two different symptoms. Also, a person can’t admit himself to a hospital, the hospital admits him. Sounds like he thought he was having another heart attack. They are probably keeping him for observation.
With the medical care available these days, he will likely be OK.
