Actors replacing each other’s characters in daily soaps is very common. One such instance was noticed this year at General Hospital. Earlier this year, in June 2022, fans were left surprised when actor Robert Adamson appeared on their TV screens as Michael Corinthos. A much-loved character is flawlessly portrayed by actor Chad Duell.

However, Robert has just made another appearance playing Michael in a few episodes of General Hospital. Fans were perplexed by this development because there wasn’t much information available to clarify what was going on. However, we have all the solutions to your queries!

General Hospital: Chad Duell Addresses His Absence.
When Chad Duell took a break from General Hospital in June 2022, the reason was ᴄᴏ.ᴠ.ɪ.ᴅ. But, his recent absence from the show had not been addressed properly up till now. Hence, fans who had been missing him dearly on the show assumed that the devious disease, ᴄᴏ.ᴠ.ɪ.ᴅ, was to be blamed again! Incidentally, the talented actor himself charted his health issue to the same, owing to the ᴄᴏ.ᴠ.ɪ.ᴅ-like symptoms he was experiencing. However, Chad has finally cleared the air about what had actually happened to him in a recent talk show.
The most recent episode of General Hospital actor Maurice Benard’s YouTube discussion show STATE OF MIND has just been posted! Chad Duell was his most recent visitor. While it is fun to watch Maurice just be Maurice on film, this episode was made much more entertaining by the heartfelt exchange between the father and son characters. Chad eventually revealed the trauma he went through with a serious health problem when Maurice inquired about what had happened to his heart.
General Hospital: Chad Describes His Terrifying Medical Experience
Therefore, I assumed I had… again, Chad said. “I experienced its symptoms. He recalled having a strange headache in addition to having a fever and a cough. “I’ve had it a number of times before, but I’ve never had it like that.” Chad proceeded by saying that he continued to test negative and believed the results were just inaccurate due to a brand-new strain.
My chest suddenly began to pain so badly and like it was beating that it felt like a heart on the fourth day. Chad explained that he went to the hospital for a checkup because he believed the “…..” had reached his chest. He recalled that his blood tests revealed high troponin levels; according to the actor, “these suggest a heart condition.” It didn’t make sense to me why I would have a heart. “They performed an angiography while I was there for a number of days.”
The Long-Term Issues in Chad
The General Hospital actor went on to describe how he would simply lay there and let his mind wander. “Because if you think too much you’re going to make yourself panic and make things worse,” he said, “and it’s almost impossible to think too little of it all because it’s like what the hell’s wrong with me it was like an episode of House,” he made a reference to the well-known medical drama.
The talented actor was eventually diagnosed with acute myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscles, following a battery of tests. It is a chronic complication of, according to Chad. “Some people get in the brains. I think had in my brain actually, which is why my head is feeling so strange,” he continued. “Then it went to my heart.” Thankfully, it eventually goes away on its own, and the actor is now feeling much better thanks to the right medication and self-care.
The General Hospital actor continued, “Even though I’m doing better now, I felt like I was going to die.” “I am powerless to describe the suffering I experienced. They had morphine, but it wasn’t doing anything as I was rolling around in the bed. It’s easy to relate to Maurice’s shock at Chad’s revelation. We ourselves are a little shaken right now, and you might feel the same way. The story of Chad’s ordeal serves as a much-needed warning to everyone to not take our health for granted. Health is NOT one of the many things in life that can be replaced.
We sincerely hope that Chad overcomes his health issues and never has to experience this horror again. Please join us in wishing our cherished General Hospital star love and health in the comments. We would love to hear from you if you have a personal experience that is similar.
