“Wheel of Fortune” host Pat Sajak, in his first post-surgery interview,

shared the harrowing experience of his blocked bowel emergency a month ago.

Severe pain during a morning walk led to surgery. Sajak described enduring

severe pain during a morning walk with his daughter last November.

Hours later, he was writhing in agony, prompting doctors to consider surgery.

Recalling the pivotal moment, Sajak said the excruciating pain

persisted despite several medications until one finally brought relief.

Thankfully, Sajak survived the surgery, and he humorously

admitted that he was simply feeling the effects of the medication, not facing death. Sajak’s procedure was a “total success.

He playfully mentioned co-host Vanna White possibly taking over but remains confident in his role.
