Reason For Travis Barker's Hospitalization Revealed

Travis Barker is hospitalized due to pancreatitis, according to reports.

Barker was first rushed to West Hills Hospital and Medical Center Tuesday morning with wife Kourtney Kardashian by his side, but the reason behind the health scare was not disclosed in initial reports.

After he was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for additional care, unnamed sources close to the 46-year-old musician and his family told TMZ and People that Barker is suffering from pancreatitis, an inflammation of the organ that aids in digestion and regulating blood sugar.

Doctors believe that the Blink-182 drummer's pancreas became inflamed due to a colonoscopy, according to TMZ. It was not clear when Barker underwent the procedure, but sources told the outlet that it was "recent."

Symptoms of the disease include nausea, intense stomach pain and vomiting, the report said.

"He was complaining of cramps," a source told People of Barker.

Reps for Barker and Kardashian have not released a statement on the musician's current condition.

Barker's daughter, Alabama, asked for prayers on social media following his hospitalization. The 16-year-old shared an image of herself holding her dad's hand as she sat on his hospital bed. She placed a pink heart emoji over the hospital band on Barker's wrist for privacy.

"Please say a prayer," she wrote in the caption of the since-deleted post.

Barker seemingly tweeted about his condition, saying: "God save me."

Friends and fans of the drummer sent their prayers and wrote messages of support for Barker as he continues his health battle. Kid Cudi, a longtime pal of Kardashian's husband who collaborated with Barker for the 2011 rock song "Cool Head," was among them.

"Travis, I love [you] and I'm prayin' for [you]," he wrote.

"Prayers up for Travis Barker," one fan tweeted. Another user added, "Hope all is well, throwing this in rotation. Prayers out to Travis and his family."

Another fan said they believe Barker will get through this because he is a survivor. "If he survived a plane crash, then he can survive whatever this is," the user wrote.

Barker's hospitalization came weeks after he and Kardashian wed for the third time in a lavish ceremony in Portofino, Italy, in May.

The Poosh founder and the musician first tied the knot in a non-binding ceremony in Las Vegas in April. They got legally married at a courthouse in Santa Barbara, California, on May 15.
