Elvis, King of Rock and Roll, left an undying legacy and many interpretations to what ultimately killed him at such a young age of 42. It has now been revealed by his personal doctor and friend, Dr. George “Nick” Nichopoulos, that he was suffering and actually died from extreme constant constipation.
In a new released book by Dr. Nichopoulos, he explains:
“We didn’t realize until the autopsy that his constipation was as bad – we knew it was bad because it was hard for us to treat, but we didn’t realize what it had done. We just assumed that the constipation was secondary to the meds that he was taking for his arthritic pain and for his insomnia.”
Dr. George Nichopolous gave a detailed image of the state of Presley’s colon, describing that typically the diameter of a colon should be 2 or 3 inches and 4 or 5 feet long, while his was almost 6 inches in diameter and close to 9 feet long.
“It was really a physiological problem. During the last few years we were going back and comparing pictures, some of them were taken just two weeks a part but he looked like he’d gained 20 pounds when the only difference was that he had a good healthy bowel movement and then lost a lot of weight from that.
“Usually you pass it all in two or three days, but at the autopsy we found stool in his colon which had been there for four or five months because of the poor motility of the bowel.”
