Earlier this week, Howie Mandel collapsed while out grabbing coffee at Starbucks and on Wednesday he took to Twitter to give a quick update on the status of his health. Fans were shocked to hear that the ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge had been taken to the hospital after the incident, but thankfully it was nothing serious according to the 65-year-old.
I am home and doing better. I was dehydrated and had low blood sugar. I appreciate the great doctors and nurses that took such good care of me. Thank you to everyone who reached out but I am doing ok!

On Wednesday evening following his health scare, Mandel shared a tweet which read, “I am home and doing better. I was dehydrated and had low blood sugar. I appreciate the great doctors and nurses that took such good care of me. Thank you to everyone who reached out but I am doing ok!”
Thankfully, Mandel was not alone when he collapsed, and his wife Terry was reportedly by his side at the time of the incident. This was not the first time Mandel had been in the hospital that week, and over the weekend the AGT judge posted a comedic video to his Instagram after undergoing a routine colonoscopy.

Fortunately Mandel was cleared by doctors after his colonoscopy and has now been released from the hospital following his fainting spell. The 65-year-old posted another comedy video to his social media on Wednesday, evidently before the incident, and fans flooded the comments with well-wishes after hearing the news.
One fan wrote, “Hope you are ok howie just saw tmz live, wishing you much health.” Terry Crews even added, “GET SOME REST HOWIE!❤ love you!”
