LADY Gaga’s dog walker Ryan Fischer, who was shot by dognappers last month, has finally been released from the hospital.
He revealed his hospital stay kept being extended because one of his lungs kept collapsing, and he eventually had to have a part of it removed.
Gaga‘s beloved pooches, Gustav and Koji, were nabbed by armed thieves from the star’s dog walker Ryan, while he was out walking them last month.
He was shot while trying to fend off the attack.
On Monday, Ryan shared an update on his “complicated recovery,” revealing he was finally leaving the hospital after a month-long stay.
He posted a video of himself sitting up in bed, wearing a hospital gown and preparing to take his leave from the facility.
Slowly, he started to switch out of his gown and into regular clothing.
He first slipped on a pair of pants before standing up and ripping off the hospital-wear.
Ryan showed off all of the bandages and markings still on his bare chest as he moved behind the bed and started dancing to Carly Simon’s Coming Around Again.
The video ended with him putting on his last piece of clothing – a blue-and-black tank top – before he could leave the hospital.
In the caption, he revealed he was re-admitted to the hospital just a week after the shooting because his “lung had collapsed.”
He wrote: “Along with accepting the the news that I was about to be readmitted, several nurses and doctors told me how they had been in the room when I came in with my gunshot.
“How they didn’t think I was going to make it.”
Once he was back at the facility, he said his lung collapsed once again, even with “the new chest tube poking at my insides.”
After it continued to collapse, over and over again, doctors realized “the bullet wound had scarred [his] tissue like a burn.
He ended up having to have surgery to remove portions of his injured lung.
Ryan also realized during his hospital stay that hde had nerve damage in both his right shoulder and tricep.
Now out of the hospital, he said he’s finding that “triggers are real and working through trauma is WAY more than dealing with one unfortunate moment in life.”
He was shot on February 25 after the gunmen took Lady Gaga’s two dogs that he was walking in a brazen dognapping attempt.
Ryan was shot four times in the chest as the robbers made their getaway.
He was then listed in critical condition but improved almost immediately as Lady Gaga and her family pled with the gunmen to return her dogs and say Fischer didn’t deserve to get shot.
It wasn’t until a week later when he returned to the hospital with more complications.
The dogs were eventually returned to a police station by a mystery woman who said she found the two stolen French bulldogs tied to a post days after the attack.
