Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are updating their fans after his recent health scare.

Barker took to his Instagram story on Saturday and wrote, "I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great but right after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since." 

"During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube. This resulted in severe, life threatening pancreatitis."

The reality star continued: "I am so grateful to God for healing my husband, for all of your prayers for him and for us, for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support. I am so touched and appreciative.
