Blues icon B.B. King is reportedly “feeling much better” after being hospitalised following diabetes related dehydration.
An updated message posted to his Facebook pages reads: “A Message from B.B. ‘I want to thank everyone for their concern and good wishes. I'm feeling much better & am leaving the hospital today.’”
King’s daughter, Claudette, told The Los Angeles Times on Monday that her father was rushed to a Las Vegas hospital for dehydration caused by Type 2 diabetes, which he was diagnosed with more than 20 years ago. In October, he was forced to cancel the remaining shows on his tour after suffering from dehydration and exhaustion.
