Updating on his health, he further shared, “Haven’t pooped in 4-5 days and lost all ability to control my lower body since yesterday. I don’t know if this is permanent or if it is growing.”

“I don't know if the cancer or the constipation has caused the paralysis,” he added.

Adams also explained that he has a “pesky tumour” around his spine.

“The solution is to ambulance me to a facility to get radiated. They’re gonna try to radiate that tumour,” he said, expressing hope that successful treatment could help him return home.

Adam’s satirical take on corporate life made Dilbert a global phenomenon in the 1990s and 2000s.

However, he faced major professional turmoil in recent years.

In February 2023, various newspaper and his distributor dropped Dilbert after he made racial comments on his show Real Coffee with Scott Adams.
