Grammer, who suffered a mild heart attack in June, was in New York for several TV appearances to promote his new film, "Swing Vote."

He checked himself into a local hospital when he began feeling faint, which was a result of the medication he had been taking since his heart attack.

Rosenfield added that Grammer's doctor "wants to observe him with the new medication overnight."

    Relax Kelsey , I recently had an heart attack. Stay calm try not to overreact to your body's symtoms. Sometimes that can trigger an panic type attack in your mind. Good luck. Try hard to stay calm.
