Lisa Marie Presley, 54, was rushed to a hospital in critical condition and is in a coma after suffering a ‘full cardiac arrest’ hours after complaining of stomach pains, according to TMZ.
Her mother Priscilla was seen arriving at the West Hills hospital in Los Angeles on Thursday afternoon to be by her daughter’s side an hour after reports of the medical emergency.
Sources told the outlet she was found unresponsive in her bedroom by her housekeeper and that her ex-husband, Danny Keough, who she has been living with, performed CPR until paramedics arrived at her home in Calabasas.
They source added that ‘someone administered epinephrine’ – more commonly known as adrenaline – at the scene at least one time in order to help Lisa Marie regain a pulse.
According to the Mayo Clinic, stomach pain is a symptom of a heart attack in women.
In a statement on Facebook, Priscilla Presley said: ‘My beloved daughter Lisa Marie was rushed to the hospital. She is now receiving the best care. Please keep her and our family in your prayers. We feel the prayers from around the world and ask for privacy at this time.’
A source close to the situation told TMZ that Presley’s condition is not as the result of a suicide attempt.
Epinephrine, or adrenaline, is administered to treat many life-threatening conditions such as cardiac arrests, asthma attacks and allergic reactions.
LA County Sheriff’s Department told Dailymail.com: ‘Deputies from Lost Hills Station responded to an assistance request call LA County Fire, near the 9500 block of Normandy Drive in Calabasas regarding a female adult, approximately 55, for a medical emergency/female not breathing.
‘The female adult was transported by LA County Fire Department to a local area hospital where they were released to the hospital’s care’.
They would not confirm if the person was Lisa Marie, who will turn 55 next month, what hospital the individual was transported nor what was administered.
They told the Hollywood Reporter the fire department responded and was able to get a pulse on the female before she was transported to West Hills hospital.
Pictures of Lisa Marie’s mother, Priscilla, 77, rushing to hospital an hour after news broke of her daughter’s medical emergency have emerged.
She was seen making a quick dash to the entrance of the hospital where her only daughter is being treated to be by her side.
Lisa Marie is a singer and songwriter and has three children, including actress Riley Keough, 33.
