Bret Michaels never did drugs. He's been a type 1 diabetic since he was a child. People saw him giving himself shots of insulin and thought it was heroin.

I dont think he could have controlled his diabetes while strung out on heroin. He'd have been dead years ago if he'd tried that.

But yeah, his health problems this past week have been newsworthy. At least as a reminder that if anyone ever has a headache they'd classify as "the worst headache they've ever had" that they should head directly for a doctor or an emergency room. Because sometimes a headache is more than just a headache.
