Judge Judy Rushed to Hospital One Day After Surgery [Updated]

By Zach Dionne Posted Mar 30th 2011 04:12PM

Judge Judy was hospitalized Wednesday morning, RadarOnline.com reports.

The 68-year-old TV show judge, full name Judith Sheindlin, was rushed to an LA hospital with nausea and intestinal issues, Radar writes. An ambulance came to the set of 'Judge Judy' at 9:12AM after a 911 call.

"The judge was feeling nauseous and had some intestinal discomfort and decided to go to the hospital to get it checked out," Judge Judy's rep, Gary Rosen, told Radar. "They are keeping her overnight for tests."

UPDATE: Judge Judy reportedly underwent oral surgery on Tuesday and "and didn't eat all day before the procedure and she had to take pain medication," a insider of the TV show tells RadarOnline. "She was told to take the day off but she said 'No, No I'll work.'"

UPDATE II: Judge Judy called TMZ to say, "I'm just exhausted, and my body was telling me it needed a day to chill." She added that she was "fine" and "at my age, I know my body."

"She was just sitting on the stand during her taping, and she started saying things that didn't make any sense," an insider tells Radar. "It was only during the second case. The judge said a couple of sentences that didn't have anything to do with the case, and then she stopped speaking and said she wasn't feeling well."

Judge Judy reportedly told her audience she would need to stop.

KARMA IS GETTING BACK AT THAT VISCIOUS JEW B1TCH

By John

Interesting, in my opinion a lot of things she says doesn't make sense. How did they know something was wrong?

By David

Mary, stop being an arse hole.

JORGE.....I would call you a moron but that would be so unfair and insulting to morons. Your rock is lonesome, go crawl back under it for the sake of humanity

By Rae

Sounds like she also had symptoms of a stroke. I hope she's okay.

By Lillian

I agree. When your speech is impaired it could be a mild stroke. I certainly hope not.

By Kevin

Maybe she was yelling too much.

By Laura

I totally agree with you. I sure hope that our thoughts are incorrect however really does sound like she may have had a minor stroke and if caught early she more than likely will be fine. I am deally with this issue as I type with a loved one. though they have not been so lucky. To all get your blood pressue checked do not wait get it checked. Dealing wiht high blood pressure is much easier and the lesser of two evils then dealing with the side effect of a stoke. Peace to all !

By Joe

More likely just an adverse reaction to the pain meds exacerbated by not eating anything.

By Jan

No stroke here folks, a problem with the pain meds. Taken on an empty stomach causes GI distress and can make you somewhat goofy too. She should not have been on the bench with those meds on board and she should have been advised not to make any important decisons while on the pain meds and to take them with food in her stomach.
