Turf singer Joaquín Levinton, who suffered a heart attack at a Palermo bar last week, has been discharged from Hospital Fernández. In an Instagram video, he thanked the waiter who saved him, hospital staff, and fans, promising to return to the stage in a month.
Updating his condition after the heart attack detailed earlier, Joaquín Levinton shared a video on Instagram confirming he was discharged from Hospital Fernández following urgent treatment for a blocked artery.
The incident occurred past midnight at the Timón bar in Palermo, where regular customer Levinton sought help. Waiter Richard, who recognized the symptoms including chest pain, sweating, and a pulse of 16.10, calmed him, provided water, and promptly called SAME emergency services. 'Stay calm, breathe, we're not going to let you go,' Richard recounted to América channel. SAME treated him on-site and rushed him to the hospital.
'I had a heart attack because I had a blocked artery and suddenly my chest started hurting, I couldn't breathe. Luckily, the waiter from Timón helped me and then SAME arrived super fast,' Levinton said. He expressed deep gratitude to the hospital staff for swift care that allowed quick stabilization, and to fans for their supportive messages.
Now recovering at home, the musician assured: 'In a month I'll be back on stage doing the fantasies I do.' He left the hospital stable, despite the severity of the pre-heart attack episode.
