Epstein Barr Virus Edit: here is the wiki if you want to read up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epstein-Barr_virus
With regards to Lesnar it is not improbably that just because he is a very large atheltic man who was obviously at one point on a lot of hormones. His heart is going to be big to pump blood around his massive body. I see no issue with it possably being a heart condition. Odds are he just has mono.
good point, but why not disclose the other condition? it's gotta be something at least potentially embarassing. white has said it ain't HIV or cancer, so what is it and why hide it if it's not something that will cause controversy. since he's hiding it is it really way far out there to speculate that it might be somehow related to past drug/roid/gh abuse? guess it could be something like hep that is more personally emabarassing... i know health is private but in his case, he'd probably be best to disclose to end a lot of the speculation. anyway, hope he gets better.
I could very well be the effect of anabolic steroid abuse and I think all you locker room experts should stop bullshitting yourself about the long term effects of such abuse. (Source: WORLD JOURNAL OF GASTROENTEROLOGY Volume: 15 Issue: 23 Pages: 2920-2922 Published: JUN 21 2009) I did read up on the whole subject and the really short version is: Anabolic steroids (AS) in controlled pharmaceutical doses has been shown to have only lesser and reversible side effects like: Increased blood pressure, lowered HDL cholesterol level, acne, decreased quality of sperm, increased liver count and aggression Comment: OK so not all will have symptoms from a controlled and short-termed use of AS and symptoms should be reversed after a few weeks to months after the use of AS have ended Most users of AS take considerable more than pharmaceutical doses even though the pharmaceutical doses has a significant anabolic effect Comment: People use way to much and could cut down the dose considerably and still get most of the anabolic effect Case stories show that a long term AS use pose a lethal health risk but the total number of reported cases is not large enough to build a statistical base Comment: The lack of a statistical base of long term effects is often used as an argument by the locker room experts to deny the health risks but just because very few of the many AS users actually report their long term use isn't an argument for the safety of AS use The real risk of AS is the identity based addiction that often results in a cycle of abuse of AS that is difficult to break and so leads to an increasing health risk to the user Comment: Spot on. Some young man is probably not going to consider the long terms effects when the risk right now is low given he takes a clean product and moderates the dosage
Do you know the difference between "Suspect" and "fact"? I can explain it to you,if you prefer.I at no ti,e claimed this was a fact and get your FACTS correct.It was SHANE McMahon who met with Dana,not Vince. Your bore me with your half baked ideas.Get a life worth living and some personal skills instead of pretending to be some type of all knowing nerd.:nut
I am sorry to say, but so was yours. The whole point of this thread is engaging in baseless speculation. It is in the ****ing title.
I just heard over ESPN radio (on Colin Cowherd's show) that besides staph it involves a serious intestinal problem, that Dana knows what it is but can't say, and that it comes from when Brock "went to Canada and something bad happened." It would be an absolutely enormous loss for MMA if Brock Lesnar never fights again, or even if he misses out for a long time. He came in, took over the UFC division by storm, became what most sane people recognize as the second best HW (regardless of record), and now might have a career ending illness.
I thought it was Nog that had the Staph infection? :huh So Brock has Mono Staph and some Intestinal issues too?
The story now is that Brock had surgery for Diverticulitis which is when a pouch forms in the large intestine and feces gets trapped inside causing an infection. They cut out the pouch or pouches. He still has mono apparently. http://network.nationalpost.com/np/...snar-has-surgery-for-bacterial-infection.aspx
