Travis Barker returns to studio days after leaving hospital

Travis Barker has returned to the studio days after being discharged from hospital. The Blink-182 drummer was spotted heading into his recording studio in Calabasas, California – near the home he shares with wife Kourtney Kardashian – after battling pancreatitis following his hospitalisation last week.

Now, the 46-year-old musician – who has collaborated with the likes of Avril Lavigne and Machine Gun Kelly on recent projects – has been seen getting back to work and could be working on some new material.
He explained on his Instagram Story: “I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great. But after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalised ever since.

“During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube.

“This resulted in severe life-threatening pancreatitis. I am so very, very grateful that with intensive treatment, I am currently much better. (sic)” Travis was pictured being taken to hospital in a wheelchair earlier last week, and it was claimed at the time he was barely able to walk due to the pain he was in.

A source said: “Kourtney was worried yesterday. They both were. Travis was suffering from extreme stomach pain and could barely walk.
