According to Radar Online, Lange was taken to the hospital on Thursday suffering complications from his type 2 diabetes. A source told the celebrity news outlet that Lange suffered a sudden drop in blood sugar that caused him to seek immediate medical treatment.
Lange was scheduled to perform on Saturday with fellow comedian Bob Levy, who took to Twitter to update fans on Lange’s status. He noted that Artie is getting antibiotics to treat an infection acquired as a result of diabetes, and is expected to go home early next week. The comedy club hosting the show has announced that it is canceled.
