Ozzy Osbourne has fully embraced modern medicine amid his ongoing struggles with his health.
The 75-year-old Grammy winner recently revealed he’s receiving stem cell treatments after disclosing in November that doctors discovered a tumor on his vertebrae while undergoing his fourth spinal surgery.
“I’ve just come back from the doctor after having some stem cells put in me,” Osbourne told his “Ozzy Speaks” co-host Billy Morrison on their SiriusXM radio show. “The thing is, you have it, and you go, ‘I don’t feel that great,’ but I don’t know what it would be like if I didn’t have it.”
According to the Prince of Darkness, the treatments — which he described as “kind of like a super f—ing stem cell” — are “pretty expensive as well.”
Osbourne said he’s due to return for follow-up treatment “in about six months.”
Morrison disclosed he also underwent stem cell treatments for “hip problems” that caused him difficulty getting into his car and out of bed: “I couldn’t tie my own shoelaces, so I had injections direct to the site, five of them, and it’s gone. It fixed it.”
