This permanent A list singer/musician who is height challenged suffered a serious blood infection last month when he was injected with a B12 shot after a show. The singer was treated for three days in a hospital.
Someone did a crappy job and that needle was not clean. B12 can also be a therapy for older people who have memory loss issues. May could be Paul Simon people.
Rather than a dirty needle, consider poor skin cleaning around the injection spot. If somebody is dripping sweat after a performance, the primadonna needs thorough cleaning around the spot with alcohol, yet may not be compliant.
Thanks! How do you get them? Just ask your doctor? I have zero energy and would really like to have something that will pick me up, that isn't meth or cocaine lol.
I get B12 shots regularly from my doc.sometimes they make me feel better than other times. I think it's all psychological, but it's pretty cheap and I'm pretty easily fooled.
The other day I read an article about strange riders in rockstars contracts and Prince was down there for requiring a Dr for b-12 shots. This is almost definitely prince.
Prince

ReplyDeleteWell that was a s****y guess.
DeleteI had to look up intravenous B12. I assumed 'B12 shot' meant a regular old intramuscular injection and couldn't figure out how he got septic.
ReplyDeleteFirst thought was Paul Simon, but Prince is a great guess.
ReplyDeletePaul Williams?
ReplyDeleteOoh, both Paul Simon & Prince are permanent A list, singers & musicians. Could be either. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure Paul would be someone to do B12 shots.
ReplyDeletePrince would do, & especially while touring. He is really a little guy even in his platforms.
You can get septic from a B12 shot? Wow. Going with Prince here, there have been some rumors about his health for some time.
ReplyDeleteNo you get septic from a dirty needle.
ReplyDeleteSome people don't hold B12 and have to have shots every week. Maybe something like that?
Prince is my guess - maybe he does it for his epilepsy?
ReplyDeleteA vitamin shot? Escandolo!

ReplyDeleteUgh, blood infection. Sounds achy and tiring and fever-ey. No bueno.

ReplyDeleteBono?
ReplyDeleteMick Jagger
ReplyDeleteNot Bono I hope. I saw him in Lisbon back in May. He's so short. I didn't realize how short.
ReplyDeletePaul Williams.
ReplyDeleteIf ya told me Prince got sick from a shot in the butt, I woulda never considered a needle was the culprit.
ReplyDeleteRather than a dirty needle, consider poor skin cleaning around the injection spot. If somebody is dripping sweat after a performance, the primadonna needs thorough cleaning around the spot with alcohol, yet may not be compliant.
ReplyDeleteThat's because he didn't follow the musicians health advises injecting heroin and other drugs.
ReplyDeleteBeing healty sucks.
Haha Count!
ReplyDeleteAnyone here ever had B12 shots? I've always wanted to get one, see if it does anything.
I have Astra. In the inner crook of my arm. Intravenous. Best way to go.

ReplyDeleteB12 shots are no better than oral.

LOL! Glad I'm not alone. Paul Williams was the first name I thought of, too, :-D
Lots of people get B12 shots on a regular basis. Singer should be more careful about his needles and who is injecting him.
ReplyDeleteB12 makes you feel real good. I've taken it for long periods of time--and did my own injections. It gives you a ton of energy.

ReplyDeletePeople forget Jagger is not very tall.
ReplyDeleteIsn't Prince a Jehovah Witness? Would a B12 shot be against his religion?
