Lou Reed is rehydrated, discharged
By Aly Barchi | Published on Wednesday 3 July 2013
Lou Reed has been discharged from hospital, having been admitted to a medical facility in Long Island last Sunday with a bad case of dehydration.
TMZ claims to have heard that doctors initially feared Reeds’ condition was related to the emergency liver transplant he had earlier this year, which – given the length of his hospital stay – seems unlikely.
In partly relevant news, Reed has written (this pre his being taken ill) a review of Kanye West’s new LP ‘Yeezus’. Have a read via The Talkhouse, if you like.
