NewsBusters associate editor Noel Sheppard found himself unexpectedly tweeting from the emergency room and a hospital bed Saturday.

ER ordering a battery of tests.I bet they all conclude I'm an incurable conservative with a warped sense of humor.

So now I'm actually in my own room with a hospital gown on. All this to cure conservatism?

Time for blood tests. Dracula has entered the building.

Doctor says 90% of bronchitis cases are viral. So why give me antibiotics Monday?

Libs claim we need obamacare to stop people from going to ERs. I've got Cadillac insurance, went to urgent care, then sent to ER.

Gorgeous Dominican nurse just drew 3 viles of blood. Why couldn't it have been 4?
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 18, 2014

To all the haters claiming I have no blood, I just saw three viles full. So there.

Take that, haters.

This sure is a switch: my 81 year old mother is worrying over me in the hospital. Not what I expected this trip.

It's becoming likely that for the third Sunday in a row I'll be watching football in bed. Feel like I'm 100 yrs old.
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 18, 2014

So now they're setting up to give me IV antibiotics.

I know I'd become instantly better if Bill Clinton would feel my pain.

Radiologist saw something in my chest xray. Heading for a CT scan. Are we having fun yet?
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 19, 2014

In about 2 hrs I'm gonna be by myself in a hospital without my laptop and a dead phone. I've gone to hell.
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 19, 2014

I was complaining about having to watch tomorrow's games in bed. Never thought it would be a hospital bed. Wow.
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 19, 2014

I wonder if anyone at this hospital knows how to make a martini with bleu cheese olives.
— Noel Sheppard (@NoelSheppard) January 19, 2014

CT scan done. Now the big wait to see if I need a biopsy. Cross those fingers.

We at Twitchy send our best wishes for a quick recovery.
