The 'America's Got Talent' judge has given fans an update and revealed he was "dehydrated and had low blood sugar" when he collapsed in a Starbucks on Wednesday (13.10.21).
He tweeted: "I am home and doing better. I was dehydrated and had low blood sugar.
"I appreciate the great doctors and nurses that took such good care of me. Thank you to everyone who reached out but I am doing ok!"
Sources had told TMZ how paramedics were called to the scene and took Howie to hospital in Tarzana, though the 65-year-old star was able to sit up by the time the Los Angeles Fire Department arrived at the café.
According to insiders, the 'Deal or No Deal' host is a regular at the branch of Starbucks.
Meanwhile, Howie recently admitted he has been "teetering" on the brink of depression because his struggles with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and being a "world-renowned germophobe" has made living life amid the coronavirus pandemic difficult.
He said: "People have jokingly said you've been planning for this. It's a nightmare for me, it's really hard...
"Honestly, I'm really down and teetering on depression right now as we speak. You see a high wire act on 'AGT, they maintain their balance and don't fall, I feel that's how I live.
"I have a smile and I get to do wonderful things and have an amazing life and amazing family, amazing support, medically, but I'm not going to lie to you, this is really crazy hard."
Howie - who has three children with his wife - admitted he only sought help for his struggles after an ultimatum from his wife.
He said: "The thing that talked me into getting help was an ultimatum from my wife who said, 'You either get help or you leave', and I wouldn't leave, I'm still here and I got help."
