Pacquiao rushed to the hospital due to stomach pain
Peopleâs champ and newly-elected Sarangani Rep. Manny Pacquiao was rushed to the hospital Sunday afternoon due to stomach pain and overfatigue. According to Jayke Joson, Pacquiaoâs chief of staff, the seven world division championâs condition is not serious and is now resting. Joson said Pacquiao experienced stomach pain early afternoon due to gastroesophageal reflux disease or acid reflux. Pacquiaoâs wife, Jinkee, accompanied him to the hospital where doctors advised the Filipino boxing icon to rest and be confined for two to three days. Joson said Pacquiaoâs stressful activity during the campaign, his failure to eat his meals on time and various appointments after the election are the causes of his sickness. "Now the doctor advised him to rest and avoid doing any stressful activity the rest of the day until tomorrow," said Joson. Pacquiao also suffered from acid reflux in 2006 where he was rushed at the Cardinal Santos Medical Center. â Jon Perez, GMANews.TV
