Coal Chamber/DevilDriver vocalist Dez Fafara has newly issued the below update on his health. This past August saw Fafara postpone Coal Chamber‘s planned tour after a worrying health episode saw him rushed to the hospital by ambulance. Fafara‘s health woes have become more of a concern in somewhat recent years, as he had “a near-death experience” with COVID-19 that left him with lingering complications.
Speaking today, October 30th, Fafara stated of his status:
“HEALTH UPDATE After pulling my tour due to vertigo and now with months of doctors HERES AN update.
FIRST. Thank you for the outpouring of love and to every musician or crew member AND all my FRIENDs that checked on me I really appreciate you.❤️❤️
I as you know suffered a blackout and vertigo weeks before tour and I’ve now seen several doctors several times and as they dial in the diagnosis and treatment I wanted to let you guys all know it’s nothing that’s gonna KILL ME since I’ve had every cat scan and test run you possibly can do Thankfully ❤️
That being said I’m under doctors supervision in fact writing to you now fresh out of the ear nose throat doc and thought I should check in …. Sorry for the silence but I’ve been really focusing on family and health at the moment. PLEASE FOLLOW @devildriver and @coalchamberofficial as announcements are coming I’m looking forward to hitting the road hard with both bands next year as well as New music is coming ! ..please like and comment so I can get back in your algorithm.Have a Happy Halloween
