@MrBudcole I see...

@OrderoftheHammer This is pretty common and very consistent with coronary and pulmonary damage caused by prolonged drug abuse. If you consider how many seniors who die of pneumonia-like symptoms when they go to the hospital for other reasons, you begin to understand what happens to the human body when it can no longer do what it is supposed to do. The heart and lungs are no longer strong enough to prevent congestive defects. Unfortunately, he prematurely aged his own life support system.

@TheMultijinx1 if he was around you think he'd respond, so in the end does it matter?

@OrderoftheHammer I'm not in the medical profession, but if I'm not mistaken it can present in any case where cardio-respiratory failure is occurring. Be that from heart failure, pneumonia, cancer, drug-related causes, I have heard the term 'acute respiratory failure' which from what I understand can 'come out of nowhere' but I'm not sure if the edema is a factor in that. Any respiratory techs on board here?

@pk33617 How does that occure though, can it comeout of nowhere and just...happen, or would it most likely be drug related ?

@OrderoftheHammer Pulmonary Edema. Basically yes, drowning...but from the inside.
