Godfather Of Heavy Metal Ozzy Osbourne has given the first public update on his health since cancelling his set at this October’s Power Trip festival. The former Black Sabbath frontman, who earlier this month was replaced by Judas Priest as a co-headliner of the Californian weekender, has talked exclusively on his Ozzy Speaks radio show and revealed that he recently had a blood clot filter removed from one of his arteries.
“Last Monday, I went to have a filter removed,” Osbourne said (as transcribed by Revolver). When co-host Billy Morrison asked the singer what that meant, he answered: “When I had the blood clots in my legs, they put a filter in your artery to stop the blood clots going to your heart and your brain. It sounds worse than it is.
