Travis Barker Hospitalized After Suffering From Pancreatitis: Everything to Know

News broke on Tuesday, June 28, that Travis Barker had been taken to a local hospital after suffering pancreatitis.

The drummer, 46, was transported to West Hills Hospital on Tuesday, according to photos published by TMZ. In the snaps, his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, was spotted accompanying him as he was treated inside. Barker — who wed the 42-year-old Poosh founder in Italy in May — was later transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

“God save me,” the Meet the Barkers alum tweeted several hours earlier, leading followers to speculate about his condition and offer their support.

“Travis I love u and im prayin for u,” Kid Cudi wrote via Twitter on Tuesday.

While neither Barker nor Kardashian initially publicly addressed his recent health scare, a source confirmed to Us Weekly that it was a result of pancreatitis. Per a Mayo Clinic definition, pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which can appear suddenly and last for several days.

He confirmed his diagnosis on Saturday, July 2. In a statement, Barker revealed that an issue during a routine endoscopy on Monday, June 27, resulted in "excruciating pain" later that night. "During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube," the DTA Records founder wrote. "This resulted in severe, life-threatening pancreatitis."

The Barker Wellness founder has since been supported by his wife, her family and his children. (He shares son Landon,18, daughter Alabama, 16, and stepdaughter Atiana, 23, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler.)

“He’s been receiving an outpour of well wishes, including from the Kardashians,” a second insider exclusively told Us on Wednesday, June 29, of the Blink-182 musician, noting the Kardashians stars have been “pretty concerned” about his prognosis. “He’s getting the best treatment and hopefully will be out of the hospital in the next 24-72 hours.”

The source added that Kourtney — who shares children Mason, 12, Penelope, 9, and Reign, 7, with ex Scott Disick — stayed at her man’s side. Daughter Alabama also “rushed” to his bedside. (Landon and Atiana, for their parts, were in New York City at the time of their father’s health battle.)

“Thank you guys for all the prayers and love, I appreciate you & love all of you,” the 16-year-old influencer wrote via Instagram Story on Wednesday, sharing a photo of her hand next to her dad’s.

Atiana, for her part, also thanked her supporters for their sweet messages and prayers on her Story. “Thank you for the outpouring of love and prayers sent our way at this time,” the daughter of Moakler, 47, and Oscar De La Hoya wrote. “It is heard, felt and appreciated.”

The “All the Small Things” performer was photographed being carried into the West Hills Hospital on a stretcher on Tuesday, June 28, after he experienced a health issue.

Us later confirmed that Barker has pancreatitis, and he explained his health issues on Saturday, July 2.

“I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great," the rocker said in a statement via Instagram Story. "But, after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since. During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube. This resulted in severe, life-threatening pancreatitis."

He added, "I am so very, very grateful that with intensive treatment I am currently much better."

A source told Us on Tuesday that despite the concern about Barker's health, he is “getting the best treatment and hopefully will be out of the hospital in the next 24-72 hours.”

“Please send your prayers,” Alabama wrote via Instagram Story on Tuesday before meeting her dad and stepmom at the hospital. Her sister, Atiana, also shared a supportive message via social media.

Hours before Barker was taken to the hospital, he tweeted a cryptic message, writing, “God save me.”

“Kourtney is by his side and will remain by his side. His kids are very supportive as well. Alabama rushed to be by his side,” a source told Us on Wednesday, noting he has been receiving treatment. “He and Kourtney have been asking for privacy as they battle through this together.”

Alabama was grateful for all the prayers and supportive messages on Wednesday, sharing a new snap of the father-daughter pair’s hands.

“Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern to my ex and father of my children,” Moakler, who was married to Barker from 2004 to 2008, told Us in an exclusive statement on Thursday, June 30. “I know he is in great hands and surrounded by loving support, the best medical teams available and his beautiful wife Kourtney.”

She also acknowledged her kids' emotions throughout the ordeal, noting, “I pray for a speedy recovery and for the comfort of my children as I know they are very concerned and worried.”

The model recognized the drummer's past health issues in her remarks about her ex. “Travis has beat the odds numerous times and I know with his support system he will do it again,” she concluded. “I will always be here for him and my children. Godspeed.”

“Oh what a scary and emotional week it has been," she said in a statement on July 2 via Instagram Story, moments after Travis broke his silence. "Our health is everything and sometimes we take for granted how quickly it can change. Travis and I went in for a routine endoscopy together and he ended up with severe, life-threatening pancreatitis.”

She continued, “I am so grateful to God for healing my husband, for all of your prayers for him and for us, for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support."

Barker revealed via Instagram Stories on Monday, July 4, that he was home. He shared flowers and a card from Kourtney’s mother, Kris Jenner, and boyfriend Corey Gamble. “Dearest Travis, Get well soon!!!! We love you, Kris and Corey xoxo,” they wrote.

Barker was photographed outside a recording studio in Calabasas, California, on July 5, one week after he was hospitalized. The rocker was spotted fist bumping a friend on his way into the building, as he headed back to work for the first time since his health scare.
