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.

What could be worse than, "Don't pee on me and tell me it's raining."?

Sounds like the reaction you get when you take any ibuprofen or some other drugs on an empty stomach.Simple.

Exactly what I was thinking, not a stroke, etc. like others here surmise. I've seen this quite often on the job working fire rescue.

Judge Judy,

I only know your TV personality, but you are the best in my book. Your show is sensible with real life examples of restoring order in the courtroom.

I wish you a speedy recovery.

Well said, great Lady.

I find it funny how some men are so paranoid about a strong, independent and intelligent woman that Judge Judy is.

By David

Judge Judy's show is the only platform existing on TV today where the public can witness justice dispensed with sense, wisdom and occasional humor. Frankly, I personally believe she would make an excellent Justice of the United States Supreme Court. I hope she is well and returns to her post behind the TV bench. We all could learn a lot more from her rulings.

Didn't think it could be a heart condition. She has a heart the size of a cherry pit. Love ya, baby.

Yeah, I'm really buying the story about the "dental work." Wanna bet she was popping illegal drugs herself? The same thing she berates others about. I wouldn't doubt that someone is covering her butt for her with the contrived dental story...

By uptownlady99920

Why do so many have a problem with a strong, independent and intelligent woman like Judge Judy? If you had to sit and listen to some of the asinine cases she does, from whiney people who haven't grown up yet, you too would get impatient.
