Amy Winehouse Hospitalized
Here’s a bit of news that should come as absolutely no surprise whatsoever to anyone who is even remotely familiar with Amy Winehouse … last night the troubled chanteuse was carted away by stretcher to the emergency room of the closest hospital while her poor father, Mitch Winehouse, looked on. Officially her people are saying she suffered a bad reaction to “medication” but they failed to specify what sort of “medication” caused the bad reaction … tho, I have a few guesses, myself:

Amy Winehouse was rushed to the emergency room of a London hospital Monday, her reps say. “Amy Winehouse suffered a reaction to medication at home this evening and was taken to the hospital. Doctors have advised that she will be kept under observation overnight and is likely to be released tomorrow,” the singer’s American rep says. The troubled 24-year-old star was taken by ambulance from her home to University College Hospital, her U.K. spokesman Chris Goodman confirms to PEOPLE. No other details were provided.
As of this morning, tho, Amy has already been released … free to terrorize the streets once again:
Amy Winehouse was discharged from hospital this morning after receiving emergency treatment for a adverse reaction to “medication”. A spokeswoman for University College Hospital, where the singer spent the night, said she was ushered out via a private exit shortly after 9.45am. She was said to be in good spirits after a “comfortable night”. The spokeswoman said: “Our doctors decided to keep her overnight for observation. She had a comfortable night and will be discharged today.” Her release comes less than 24 hours after she was stretchered out of her Camden home and rushed to A&E. The singer was seen being wheeled out of her north London home just after 8.40pm by paramedics, her beleaguered father Mitch Winehouse watching on. Paramedics had been called by Mitch after Winehouse reportedly collapse after suffering an episode of “fitting”. Her father blamed the scare on a mistake with her prescription pills, saying: “She’s fine, she just mixed up her medication.”
Uh, yeah … just what sort of medication did she get mixed up? Why is she even taking medication in the first place? How much of the stuff is she taking that A.) there are so many to mix up and B.) would cause such a severe reaction? Any of y’all wanna guess what sort of “medication” Amy swallowed down and caused this episode of “fitting”?
In other news, Amy Winehouse’s wax statue doppelgänger is still alive and doing well.

Maybe it was anti-addiction medication. Like the meds prescribed to alcoholics so they get ill if they drink. That’s the first thing I thought off cuz the pics don’t seem like the medics were in any sort of ‘rush’ like it was an emergency or antyhing.

I think Sarah is right – other sources are reporting it was a prescription to help her beat some addiction or other. Let’s hope that’s the case… That girl looks about 60 years old.

“Why is she taking medication?”
Because she obviously is unstable!! I wouldnt be surprised if she were bipolar; Probably depressed at least. Some anti-depressants can have adverse affects on some people and make them feel worse.
I do pray for her. I know everyone views her as a joke because her troubles have been in the headlines so much, but I feel sorry for her. Addiction is difficult, and I can’t imagine it easier when there is paparazzi watching your every move.
