No and not much on his website:

“ALERT: Rush was admitted to a Honolulu hospital Wednesday and is resting comfortably after suffering chest pains.
Rush appreciates your prayers and well wishes. He’ll keep you updated via the website. Friday’s show will be a Best of Rush.”

If he isn’t out by next Monday, I hope they get him a mic and internet connection for his hospital bed! This past week has sucked during my lunch hours with him being away.

As long as his mind and voice are functional, get him on the air! lol

I can’t believe the lack of coverage on this extremely important story! Fox News has been NOWHERE on this, and even Rush’s website is giving scant details.

The media should leave 0bama’s Hawaiian vacation site and park out in front of Rush’s hospital. Even if the MSM doesn’t like him, at least FNC should be there 24/7!

I’m trying to hope that no news is good news but with each passing hour with absolutely nothing from any source I’m growing increasingly uneasy. Somebody has to know something . . .

I just did a google news search and found nothing new. They should have him diagnosed by now (angina? heart attack? esophageal spasm?) and should have issued a report (I am a physician). The blackout tells me that it IS something of a concern, likely a heart attack (myocardial infarction) or an "incomplete" heart attack of a sort known as "acute coronary syndrome."

Many different things they can do, so we must stay tuned. I would guess that we'll know something by the end of today.

Fox and Friends reporting this morning that he was up and about, joking with doctors and nurses.....but still also resting comfortably when needed.

I sure wish he was back on the mainland of the USA.

Needing emergency care is difficult enough over a holiday but being on the leftwing island makes me very nervous for Rush.

For what it’s worth - Drudge hasn’t done much to update his site in the past 24, but in the past half hour all links to Rush stories were removed.

Last I heard, he was having a series of tests done yesterday, so he could still be in the hospital until all results are in and it may also be that there won’t be any updates until they can clearly state what happened.

I hope we hear directly from Rush on Monday. He could do a simple call-in to the show arranged by his producer, and tell us how he is doing. He’s a private man in many ways. I’m glad his medical ordeal has not been all over the news. It’s his own business, and he should tell us only what he would like to share with his loyal listeners.

Get Well Fast, Rush!

I heard yesterday that he will be broadcasting his show Monday. That surprised me, but I think that means he’s fine.

To fellow Freepers: Like all of you, my heart sank when I heard about Rush and he has my prayers for a speedy recovery. The first time I heard Rush, I began jumping up and down and hollering, eventhough I was alone. During the following 20+ years my day has included 3 hours of Rush. Like a great teacher or coach, Rush has opened our eyes and minds to what the left is doing to America. To honor this great teacher, we should re-double our indivual efforts to defeat liberalism, and show Rush that his efforts have been succesful. Perhaps take a bit of the load off his shoulders. Becuase of Rush all conservatives have a louder voice that liberals will never silence. To honor Rush, let’s all make our voices impossible to ignore.

I heard yesterday - I think it was Walter Williams - that Rush was going to have a complete physical today. I remember thinking that would be New Year’s Day and a 3 day weekend.

Even if he receives the complete physical today, HI is 5 hours behind East Coast time.

I would not release any info until after the physical is done which could be Monday for all results etc.

This from ABCnews, Rush Limbaugh Camp Silent as Talk Show Host Recovers in Hawaii Hospital

...................Both the hospital and Limbaugh's camp have remained mum on his condition today, one day after a spate of statements and press releases said he was "resting comfortably" and undergoing a battery of tests.

Hospital officials, however, scheduled a news conference for 4 p.m. ET.

A spokeswoman for the Queens Medical Center told ABCNews.com today that any updates on Limbaugh's status would be made by e-mail, but that she did not know whether anything would be sent out today................
