Howie Mandel says he’s “home and doing better” after collapsing at a local Starbucks. The 65-year-old television personality updated fans on social media, after being hospitalized for a health scare. Mandel told fans on Twitter that he experienced low blood sugar, writing: “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!”

Mandel was with his wife and friends at a Starbucks in the Woodland Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles on Wednesday when he suddenly passed out. Paramedics responded to the scene and Mandel was taken to a hospital in Tarzana. A rep for the Los Angeles Fire Department confirmed they received a call at 10:03 a.m. PDT on Wednesday, of a 65-year-old male experiencing a medical issue.

Mandel serves as one of the judges on the NBC reality competition series ‘America’s Got Talent,’ which completed its 16th season in September.
