Charlie Sheen: Did he hurt himself laughing too hard?

Charlie Sheen was rushed to the hospital today with abdominal pain, according to reports.
But “Extra” explains, thanks Sheen friend Steve Brodersen, the source of the problem: a hernia injury worsened when the “Two and a Half Men” star laughed too hard at the TV.
“I’m not dying,” Brodersen quoted Sheen as saying.
Which is a relief. Because I’d sure hate to see the Sheen-is-acting-bad watch turn into the Sheen-is-dying watch.
Sheen could have surgery soon to repair the hernia, “Extra” reported. Sheen denied that drugs were involved, “Extra” added.
No word on what he was watching.
Could it have been his own CBS sitcom? It airs at 9 p.m. Mondays on WKMG-Channel 6.
There’s not a lot to laugh about in Sheen’s personal saga. But today’s explanation should produce a few chuckles, at least.
