Carman fell ill a few weeks ago and battled an intense fever, which doctors said was normal for cancer patients. He chose to reveal all in a message to fans and followers in a personal message on Facebook, where he has kept everyone updated on his health struggles.

"The problem with me was that I developed some sort of virus and they couldn't identify it until the fevers dropped or broke. So I was admitted with 104 temp, shaking chills and my thumb getting ready to type as fast as it could and post on Facebook. Cause I knew once this got to these 'Prayer Savages' I have on my team – the Devil was facing a series [serious] New Jersey beat down. They could not stop the fevers, the lowest they would go was 102. So I put on my 3 time UFC Champion and friend 'Royce Gracie' t-shirt I got for Christmas, just for attitude – I must have slept 15 hours and when I woke up I was soaking wet," Carman wrote.

After waking up soaked, nurses took Carman's temperature and realized, thankfully, that it broke, meaning that he was doing much better and turning a corner.

"I guess God put me in a deep sleep like Adam and pulled out a surprise," Carman noted. "Personally … I would have rather woke up next to Eve than a sweaty t-shirt, but the fever was more important at the time (ugh). The Doctor told me I will be released on Thursday… That was the last most difficult time I had to come through in this 8 months of treatment. I've been through 5 months of the most challenging stuff (oh lets [sic] just call it hell, it's been 5 months of hell) but in 3 weeks from now I'll be back in the gym lifting weights and running the treadmill – because the cancer will be gone."

Fans and followers have supported Carman throughout his cancer battle and are pleased to see him turn a corner and be released from the hospital. Hopefully soon he will begin the first leg of his new tour.
