"Gallagher has been released from a Texas hospital following treatment for a cardiac arrest. The comedian was rushed to the emergency room last week after suffering chest pains. He was later diagnosed with a &amp;quot;mild to serious&amp;quot; heart attack and put into a medically-induced coma by doctors. The comic&amp;#039;s promotional manager Christine Scherrer confirmed on Sunday (March 18) that Gallagher had awoken from the coma and was in good spirits as his recovery continued. Scherrer provided an update to The Wrap, revealing that Gallagher was officially released from the hospital on Wednesday (March 21). &amp;quot;[Gallagher] is doing great, but still needs time... he is up to his same old antics though,&amp;quot; she said.  The comedian was previously hospitalized one year ago after suffering a separate heart attack while on stage in Rochester, MN. Gallagher is famous for smashing fruit with a sledgehammer as the climax to his stand-up comedy routine.
