This is what TMZ wrote:
Wayne was rushed to the hospital again, but this time he did not stabilize. He was taken to ICU, where he was placed in restraints because he was shaking uncontrollably.
We’re told Wayne is currently “unstable,” and has been placed in an induced coma. He is breathing through tubes.
The site also claims that doctors found high volumes of codeine in Lil Wayne’s system.
Despite the report, Lil Wayne sent out a tweet on Twitter saying he is okay.
“I’m good everybody. Thx for the prayers and love,” Lil Wayne tweeted.
