Travis Barker is in the hospital because he has pancreatitis, and doctors believe it could have been triggered by a colonoscopy, as gossip website TMZ reports.

Multiple sources connected to the family told the site that Travis' hospitalization yesterday was a result of pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas, which includes symptoms like nausea, intense stomach pain, fever and vomiting, per the Mayo Clinic. The Blink-182 drummer had a colonoscopy recently, resulting in these findings.

As we earlier reported, Barker, 46, and his wife Kourtney Kardashian first showed up at West Hills hospital Tuesday morning and was later taken by an ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Early yesterday, the Blink-182 drummer tweeted, “God save me,” although it's not clear if he was referring to his condition.

His 16-year-old daughter Alabama Barker wrote on her Instagram Story “Please send prayers” seemingly referring to her father’s hospitalization.

No further details have been made available as to Barker's current status.
