*Not even a “neurological episode” can keep Bobby V away from his Millennium Tour fans.
The “Slow Down” hitmaker recently took to social media to share how he was hospitalized after experiencing a slew of symptoms that included a “racing heart, fever, and numbness on the left side of his body.” Following treatment, doctors laid out their synopsis of the situation, telling Bobby V his symptoms may have related to a potential “neurological episode.”
“Last night I got real sick,” the R&B crooner confessed in a video recorded April 7 at the airport. Although he initially wanted to keep his situation private, Bobby V opted to publicly address what happened via a follow up statement to The Shade Room.
“To be honest I wasn’t gonna say nothing about this but I was rushed to the hospital – heart racing, fever spiked, whole left side of my body went numb. The doctors said it might’ve been a neurological episode from exhaustion and dehydration. I laid there, IV in my arm, hearing them say I shouldn’t move.”
The incident could have sidelined him or worse, but it, nor a delayed flight to Memphis, wasn’t enough to keep Bobby V from reportedly spending $20,000 on a private jet to get to the Millennium Tour stop on time to give his fans the performance they craved.
