Hi autopsy report shows distended bladder, doing some googling and this brings up acute urinary retention which in turn can cause the constipation. There are many causes of this urinary retention but I thought one of interest was injury or laceration of penis, which was also noted on his autopsy. No theories just putting some thoughts out there.
Another one of my (many many) outlandish theories involves kidney stones.
I was hospitalized with severe abdominal pain, and when I got to the hospital, the doctor immediately scanned my kidneys with the ultrasound (I think its called).
The stones were so big that they had to be laser blasted and removed, I was put under for the procedure.
Now, thinking about all this, I had thought about MH too (long, long before this discussion).
My urine was black, straight black about a week before it happened. I may have also had Rybdo in conjunction with kidney stones, but it was most definitely kidney stones that where confirmed.
Now, with the size of the stones, it makes me have gruesome and morbid thoughts about what may have happened to MH if he was forced to pass them. I don't know the exact science, but if my stones had made their way past the bladder, I could have been sharing a similar experience to what is described in MH's death.
This
just hit me too. About a month before my stones, my (left) foot was hurting so extremely bad that I could not walk. There was no explanation for this, as it was just a very unwanted surprise when I woke up that morning. There was no bruising, swelling, etc.
I mention the foot because of MH's foot, the one that may looked waterlogged. A possible explanation between my foot pain and the kidney stones is having the condition "gout". I never received a full explanation (army doctors) or official diagnoses, but its all interesting things to mention.
