We directly spoke to Bam Margera who said he was swift to the hospice Sunday after a four day drinking binge -- not because of a possible drug overdose.
The "Jackass" star blames the "4-day bender" on marital problems, telling us "I may get a divorce ... booze helps."
Margera says his kidney and leg strength were a mess from not eating or drinking enough water -- but the hospital flushed out his system and he was released to his home after speaking to a psychiatrist.
Now, Bam claims he's in good health and he even sent us this photo -- taken after he was free from the hospital -- to confirm it.
