I just read that Paul has had some problems with his heart and is been in hospital in the fall. I'll do some research. Or was this in 2006? Never read it tho.
Wednesday, January 02, 2008 Paul McCartney's heart fixed
Mercifully, The Sun resisted the chance to suggest that Paul McCartney's heart trouble was due to Heather Mills turning it to stone, or ripping it out.
McCartney had a coronary angioplasty after complaining of feeling unwell. This all took place back in the autumn.
I thought he looked under the weather during the release of Memory Almost Full and a little while after . Just thought it was stress with the divorce. Think this is the same problem David Bowie had ? Take it easy Paul you've done enough for 3 life times .
McCartney Didn't Have Heart Surgery AP Posted: 2008-01-31 14:25:46 Filed Under: Music News NEW YORK (Jan. 31) - Paul McCartney says recent media reports that he had heart surgery last year are "entirely untrue."
Paul's Message to His Fans Hi everybody, Happy New Year!
I hope it?s a great one for all of us.
There?s been a lot of stuff in the newspapers over the past few months and as most of it is completely inaccurate, I have not bothered to deny any of it.
There is one report though, that is causing concern amongst many friends of mine which was a recent report about a heart operation that I was supposed to have had.
People are ringing and texting me saying ?are you ok?? and I hadn?t seen the report so I was puzzled by so many enquiries about my health. So I think it?s a good time to put this rumour to rest. What happened was, over a year ago during a routine medical examination, there was a minor irregularity which I needed to have tests for and which I have now been assured is completely fine. The media have only just recently reported an exaggerated version of this and that is why people have been asking me if I am ok. So this is where the story has come from. The media reports have, as usual, completely distorted the story, calling it an angioplasty, which is entirely untrue, and this is why so many friends have been concerned about my health.
I?m happy to say that I feel great and I have passed my most recent medical with flying colours.
I would like to thank all of you and my friends and relatives for your concern and I?m very happy to put your minds at rest, although I have secretly been enjoying all the sympathy I?ve been getting!
Once again, happy new year and remember?don?t believe everything you read in the media.
I look forward to a rocking 2008!
Love, Paul "People are ringing and texting me saying, `Are you OK?"' he writes in a posting on his newly redesigned Web site. "I hadn't seen the report so I was puzzled by so many enquiries about my health. So I think it's a good time to put this rumour to rest."
The 65-year-old ex-Beatle says that during a routine medical examination over a year ago, "there was a minor irregularity which I needed to have tests for and which I have now been assured is completely fine."
Recent media reports "completely distorted the story, calling it an angioplasty, which is entirely untrue, and this is why so many friends have been concerned about my health," he writes.
"I am happy to say that I feel great and I have passed my most recent medical with flying colours."
McCartney, who is nominated for a Grammy Award for his latest album, "Memory Almost Full," says he wants to assure friends and family that he's in good health.
