During a recent chat with Billy Morrison on SiriusXM’s “Ozzy Speaks,” Ozzy Osbourne offered an update on his current health struggles. The singer says he recently had to have a blood clot filter removed from his body.
Osbourne and Morrison had the following exchange regarding his health:
MORRISON: “How are you mate?”
OZZY: “I’m battling through, like, for instance last Monday, I went to have a filter removed and I went…”
MORRISON: “You texted me that. What’s a filter?”
OZZY: “When I had the blood clots in my legs, they put a filter in your artery to stop the blood clots going to your heart and your brain. It sounds worse than it is.”
MORRISON: “It sounds terrible.”
OZZY: “So, on Monday I went to have it removed. The blood clots have jammed you all up. It’s just disappointment after disappointment. Just get this thing fucking done so I can go get on with my life.”
MORRISON: “What a pain in the ass. I’m so sorry you’re going through this.”
OZZY: “So, they put a thing down there in my neck, straight down to my groin.”
MORRISON: “What? Inside you?”
OZZY: “Oh yeah.”
MORRISON: “Oh my God. They put you out?”
OZZY: “Oh yeah. Bing.”
MORRISON: “We like that bit.”
OZZY: “Yeah, but they can’t even find a vein on me.”
MORRISON: “Ozzy, I had them send in for specialists to try and get a vein on me.”
OZZY: “Do you have that thing where they put a scan on you and find one inside?”
MORRISON: “Yeah, but then they’ve actually gotta get it and I always, do you ever have this? They go, ‘Right. Show me your arm.’ I’m like, ‘Listen, I’ve got more experience than all of you put together.’”
