Heath has been admitted to Campelltown Hospital with a suspected stroke which occurred whilst at the Camden One Day Event where he was to compete.
It is not a conclusive diagnosis at the moment, and an MRI will be carried out this afternoon, Tuesday 19 May 2009.
This scan will be invaluable in completing the diagnosis. It is also thought that his symptoms of headache nausea and unbalanced walking may well be caused form a virus.
Heath is in good spirits and as expected is out of bed as often as he can to see if he is totally back to normal yet! His wife Rozzie is with him and says that his spirits are great and they would both like to thank everyone for their support in this trying time.
