Even Amy Winehouse's Drugs Are Mixed Up

Wine-o's in the basement, mixing up the medicine....

The Daily Mail reports that Amy Winehouse's most recent visit to the emergency room was the result of taking the wrong drugs.

Which wouldn't be news at all, except that this time, at least, the wrong drugs were prescribed by a physician.

Paramedics were called to Winehouse's home Monday night after the "Rehab" singer collapsed and suffered an episode of "fitting"—which is probably the only context in which the word fitting will ever apply to Amy.

The beehived headline-grabber was released from London's Royal College Hospital Tuesday morning. She had been treated for what a hospital spokesperson called "a reaction to medication at home" and being kept for a "comfortable night" of observation.

That comfort was partially due to father Mitch Winehouse, who showed up at the hospital with a bucket of KFC—which is apparently one of Amy's favorites.

Hmm; somehow it's doubtful that a lucrative endorsement deal will come from this particular case of product placement.

Quotables /

“Amy Winehouse was hospitalized last night after she apparently had a "reaction" to medication she's taking as part of an anti-drug regimen. Amy had collapsed at her apartment and her dad Mitch called paramedics telling them "She's fucked up, she's fucked up." But, in defiance of all logic and reason, she's somehow doing fine and will be released tomorrow.

Asked how she was, Mitch held up two bags of food and said: “This is how serious it is — I’m bringing her some KFC.”

For the record, Amy doesn't so much eat the chicken as she reinforces her beehive with the bones. Or at least tries to before giving up and smoking a crack pipe the size of a bus. Yet, somehow, God lets her keep living. I'm gonna go ahead and assume this has something to do with me touching myself at night. Not quite sure the punishment fits the crime, but whatever....”

The Superficial

“In an all-too-familiar scene, Amy Winehouse was rushed to a London hospital yesterday. Her rep confirmed to Us Weekly that the singer had been taken to the Royal College Hospital.

The explanation being given is that Amy "suffered a reaction to medication" with Winehouse being kept overnight with a likely release scheduled for today. I understand that her rep's trying to be discreet, but seriously "medication?"

Photographers just outside Amy's Camden home reported that she had been convulsing and had an oxygen mask placed over her face as medical workers wheeled her on a stretcher into a waiting ambulance.”

Socialite Life

“Amy Winehouse was discharged from the hospital this morning after she was rushed in last night to receive emergency treatment. Her spokesman said Amy collapsed after having an adverse reaction to "medication." Huuuuh, oh boy. Really? This again? Just die you worthless junkie bitch. I'm so sick of your ass.

The singer was rushed to hospital last night after frantic dad MITCH called 999 when she started having fits.
Paramedics gave her oxygen and bundled her out of the pad in Camden, North London, into the ambulance.
A spokesman for the singer said last night it appeared Amy had suffered a reaction to medication she was taking to help her off hard drugs.

I'm not trying to tell the cops in London how to do their job, but I have reason to believe Amy Winehouse might be using illegal drugs. It's a hunch I have. Many call me a wunderkind psychic, using my powers for good.”

“Amy Winehouse was rushed to a London hospital in a wheelchair today after she 'suffered a reaction to her medication,' her rep says.

She was admitted for care 'after an emergency call was received' and will be kept under observation overnight before being released back into the wild tomorrow.

The drug overdose allergic reaction comes a week after Amy's heroin hubby Blake Fielder-Civil was sentenced to two years in prison and hours after Amy completed a weekend full of boozing and punching things (again). This time, it was an inanimate object (a metal security blind), so at least Amy won't have to worry about another lawsuit.

Prior to Amy getting hospitalized and partying her bony ass off, there were actually signs that she was getting better. Last week she had her first personal training session, visited a rehab center, and was said to be really turning her act around.

One step forward two steps back???”

“I realize there are laws in the U.K. that probably prohibit a hospital from keeping a patient against their will, but if there were ever a time to play renegade doctor it is NOW.

I just don't understand how any medical professional in their right mind would release Amy Winehouse (seen here exiting a London hospital on Tuesday with a bodyguard and a bag full of candy, following her collapse a night prior.)

This isn't f***ing Halloween people! This is a woman's life; a woman who is severely addicted to drugs!

Strap the pop diva down and detox that b*tch! A'ight!?”

Amy Winehouse will outlive us all. Then she will urinate on our graves. But the urine will be 90 percent gin.
