August Alsina: I Was in a Coma for Three Days

August Alsina
August Alsina’s fainting spell in New York City this week was much more serious than first revealed. Alsina was in a coma, according to his Instagram post Friday (Sept. 19).
“This is a bit graphic but i wanted to share this w/ every follower of mine," he wrote. "iWoke up out of a 3 day coma... &This guy @banggang_moneyteam right here never once left my side. What I'm tryna say is cherish the ones in life who cherish you & take good care of yourself. Your life can be gone in a split second. I'm recovering well and thankyou for all of your prayers & concerns.”
The New Orleans-bred crooner suffered multiple seizures after he passed out on stage Monday. He is being treated in the intensive care unit of a New York hospital. 
It is unclear if Alsina’s coma was medically induced. During medical sedation patients are given a controlled dose of anesthetics, typically used to protect and control “the pressure dynamics of the brain.”
