Lyor Cohen Recovering from a Pulmonary Embolism

300 Entertainment co-founder/CEO Lyor Cohen was hospitalized over the weekend after suffering a pulmonary embolism. Multiple news reports said it happened while he was attending the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame awards at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Cohen said on his SNAPCHAT account, “So it would take much more to kill me than a sub massive pulmonary embolism. If it wasn’t for my son, and my best friend Norm, I would have been a goner,” he continued. “There’s actually nothing I could do. Anybody could get it. It’s a little blood clot that goes right up the body into the lungs and heart.”
He continued “One thing I do know, the fact that I’m so in shape and worked out all these years, it helped me survive it. Had I waited, like I typically want to do, had it not been for [son] Az and Norm insisting … The doctor said if I’d waited another four hours, I would be toast.”
