Have you guys read this yet? It seems that Don Long is having double kidney failure and has to be on dialysis 4 days a week. They say that it is not from the gas and that he was born with one kidney bigger than the other and all the dieting, protein and water intake put all kinds of stresses on them. Then him and his wife divorced and all of the stress from that really aggravated them. I don't know, but I gotta tell you that one has to think that the gas plyed a role in the kidney failure. What are your thoughts on the matter. IP: Logged |

What about all the people in the world that suffer from the same ailment. 99% of them have never used gear. What are they going to blame it on? People who use gear can never get sick, because it will always be blamed on the gear. Come on now.... IP: Logged |

I am not sure, it may have had a small role in it. He said he only had one good kidney. Many people donate one of their own kidneys and live fine with just the other one. However most of these one kidney peolpe do not eat 1 gram (or more) of protein per body pound , take diuretics, gear, drinking gallons of water and go through various dieting plans. All of these might also contribute to making the other kidney fail. I also wonder how well is one good kidney might have been working or if it too was not 100% functional. Not matter what, I feel bad for the dude having made it so far than to have the rug pull out from under you like that would bite big time. IP: Logged |

When we are on juice, we take a calculated risk. Yes, its hard on the kidneys, yes its hard on the liver, yes it prob. contributed to Don Longs failure. One has to use wisely and use protective measures to minimize risk. Of course some guys just dont care about their health and just want to get big at any cost, stupid in my book, big and alive is better than freaky and dead! ------------------ IP: Logged |
