KARACHI: Doctors have suggested the ailing legendary comedian Umer Sharif from travelling for the next 24 hours due to low blood pressure, ARY News reported on Monday.
Umer Sharif’s wife said that doctors advised him yesterday not to travel for the next 24 hours due to low blood pressure, on the other hand, the air ambulance administration gave a maximum of 12 hours to wait for transporting him to the United States (US).
She said that the doctors asked the air ambulance administration to wait for a day. She said that it would be a massive financial loss if the air ambulance departs without carrying Umer Sharif to the US for medical treatment.
She appealed to the federal and Sindh government to help extending the waiting period of the air ambulance.
