SHEEN DOWNED VODKA TO EASE HERNIA PAIN
CHARLIE SHEEN was admitted to hospital for hernia treatment after he shunned prescribed medication and downed vodka to ease his pain.
A wild night of partying in January (11) ended in a 911 drama for Sheen after he complained of abdominal pain, stemming from a hernia.
The star reveals he had refused to take drugs prescribed to him by a doctor for the condition and instead turned to alcohol to blot out the pain - which resulted in his hospitalisation.
He tells CNN chat show host Piers Morgan, "The reason it went bad is because I don’t do pills… I don’t do any of that nonsense.
"I had this hernia thing that was popping out, it was gross - the pain was like someone was driving a hot sabre through my gut. And because I won’t take a pain pill, because those things are like ‘wow!’, I maybe hit the vodka a little too hard to reduce the pain. That was the final push, that final drop down the falls. I guess somebody decided to call 911."
