— -- Nick Cannon doesn't want fans to worry about his recent hospital visit.
The "America's Got Talent" host on Wednesday posted a heartfelt and goofy caption to his hospital picture on Instagram.
"Temporary pit stop... Sometimes I can be a little too bull headed and stubborn," the 34-year-old father of two wrote.
He continued, "I gotta stop running my body to the ground. I be wanting to grind nonstop but the engine can't run on fumes. On the low though, I really think I'm a super hero... Now I'm not saying I'm Batman, but I am saying nobody has ever seen me and Batman in the same room together. LOL #ImGood."
Cannon has been working on various projects in addition to living with lupus for the last few years.
He told "GMA" in 2012, "It's a rare form of lupus that's just attacking my kidneys. They thought it was just kidney disease, and then they were trying to figure out why my immune system was attacking my kidneys and that was sort of the root of it all."
