<p>Doctors &#8220;are feeling pretty confident&#8221; that Michaels will not suffer  another hemorrhage and will fully recover.</p>
<p>The rock singer and reality TV star needs four to six weeks of rest  before he can resume a normal schedule, Dr. Joseph Zabramski said.</p>
<p>His road manager announced last week that Michaels might be able to  resume his concert tour on May 26, but his doctor said he asked Michaels  to take it easy.</p>
<p>80s-Music.net is happy to hear Bret is recovering well and is released  from the hospital!</p>

The rehabilitation facility Steven has gone back to is the physical therapy facility in search of a &#8220;safe environment&#8221; to recover from several foot surgeries and physical therapy, according to Aerosmith&#8217;s frontman Thursday.</p>
<p>The injuries he had sustained over the years of physical performances lead him to have these corrective surgeries. &#8220;The doctors told me the pain in my feet could be corrected but it would require a few surgeries over time,&#8221; Tyler said in the statement. &#8220;The &#8216;foot repair&#8217; pain was intense, greater than I&#8217;d anticipated. The months of rehabilitative care and the painful strain of physical therapy were traumatic. I really needed a safe environment to recuperate where I could shut off my phone and get back on my feet.&#8221;</p>
<p>Steven Tyler, 60, was known for heavy drug and alcohol abuse in the 1970s and early 1980s and completed rehabilitation in 1986. After that Aerosmith enjoyed a very successful comeback.</p>
