Antonio Inoki Provides Update On His Health

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Dec 22, 2021

WWE Hall Of Famer and Japanese pro-wrestling legend Antonio Inoki has provided an update on his health following hospitalization earlier this year.

Inoki, 78 has been dealing with issues related to lower back, diabetes, and systemic transthyretin amyloidosis, which impairs blood circulation. He also recently underwent surgery for volvulus, a twisting of the intestines.

During an interview Tokyo Sports, Inoki was asked about his health and thanked those around him.

“I’m often asked that question, but all I can say is, ‘I’m fine (chuckles). There are times when I have trouble sleeping. As with everyone, the more I try to sleep, the more I can’t sleep. When the schedules overlap, they overlap, so I’d like to sleep well before that.

“I was hospitalized repeatedly… It’s strange that I’m here now, but I’ve been pushed into a very strange situation. I couldn’t take salt in my meals. It makes me swell up. But the people around me take care of me, and I enjoy the food. I don’t get to go outside much, so I’ve never been hot or cold. Well… in other words, it’s been a good year.”
