Ozzy Osbourne was in constant pain

Ozzy Osbourne recently revealed that he has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. The 71-year-old British Singer admitted that he was in constant pain in 2019 before saying that it was the most miserable time of his life. While speaking in an interview, he said that his problems started after he fell in his home last April and underwent surgery because of that. Accompanied by his wife Sarah, it was revealed that he had “Parkin 2,” which may mean Stage 2 Parkinson’s, an early form of the disease.

Elaborating on his condition he said that he got a lot of numbness down his arms and his legs went cold. He added that at that moment he was unsure if it was Parkinson’s or not. Osbourne also revealed that both, he and his wife plan to travel to Switzerland to seek a specialist as they have already exhausted all the options in the US. The frontman of Black Sabbath had to cancel his show in Newcastle’s Utilita Arena twice due to his illness. The shows have now been rescheduled to October 23, 2020.

In December, Osbourne offered a $25,000 reward for the return of his late friend Randy Rhoads' stolen guitar. He said that he will be offering the money to anyone who can either return or provide information on the person who stole many of the heavy metal antiques, including Rhoads' very first guitar.
