Kevin Spacey Rushed To Hospital After His Entire Left Arm Went 'Numb For About Eight Seconds'

"House of Cards" star Kevin Spacey was rushed to the hospital after the actor felt his left arm go completely "numb for about eight seconds" during his appearance at a film festival in Uzbekistan.

Following the shocking health scare, Spacey was reportedly taken to the Innova Diagnostic Clinic in the city, where he has undergone several tests, including an MRI scan.

Spacey, who is presently facing several legal battles, was rushed to a hospital after feeling his entire left arm go "numb for about eight seconds," The Sun reports.

According to the news outlet, the actor was touring the Afrasiyab Museum in the ancient Silk Road city of Samarkand when the health scare happened. 

He was immediately taken to the nearby Innova Diagnostic Clinic in the city, where he had to undergo several tests, including an MRI.

Prior to the numerous tests, doctors were worried that Spacey had a heart attack. But they later realized he was fine and had no serious issues.

"Mr. Spacey was taken to a medical center over health concerns. He was treated professionally by doctors and staff and found to have no problem with his heart," a source shared with The Sun.

Following the health emergency, Spacey returned to the stage at the film festival, where he revealed he was feeling "normal."

"It made me really take a moment and think about how fragile life is - for all of us," Spacey said.

He continued, "I experienced something here today that was unexpected. I was looking at these extraordinary murals on the walls, and I suddenly felt my entire left arm go numb for about eight seconds."

Recounting the moment, he stated, "I shook it off, but I immediately told the people I was with and we went immediately to the [...] medical center. I spent the afternoon there having a variety of tests. Staff took care of me, and even put me through an MRI."

Spacey concluded: "Everything turned out to be completely normal, and I'm grateful it's not anything more serious."

After his recent court victories, Spacey was slammed with another lawsuit by a male massage therapist for sexual harassment.

As reported by The Blast, the lawsuit claims that Spacey arranged for a massage with a therapist to whom he made sexual advances. He also allegedly offered to pay for sexual favors.

According to the therapist, Spacey booked three 90-minute massages at the New York Edition Hotel in August and September 2016, where he made unwanted and inappropriate sexual advances.

In the court documents, the masseur alleged that Spacey indulged in some yoga poses, which led to his genitals being exposed, ultimately causing distress and discomfort to the therapist.

The suit states, "Spacey repeatedly became sexually aroused during the sessions and even offered extra money in exchange for sexual favors." 

The massage therapist claims the sessions with Spacey have caused him to suffer from anxiety, depression, and PTSD to this day. He also fears "for his livelihood as a massage therapist, husband, and father."
