View StoryAccording to the Post acute myocardial infarction is “when blood flow to the heart muscle is suddenly blocked, causing tissue damage.”
The Mayo Clinic describes atrial fibrillation (AFib) as “irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm… The condition also increases the risk of stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications.”
Leukemia CLL or Chronic lymphocytic leukemia “is a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow” that affects the white blood cells, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Page Six reports there is no record that Hulk ever went public with his leukemia CLL diagnosis.
The docs also indicated Hogan may be cremated.
A spokesperson for the Pinellas County Forensic Science Center told Page Six, “I am not aware when [Hogan] will be cremated, only that we received a request for cremation approval.”
Paramedics rushed to the wrestler’s Clearwater, Florida, home on Thursday after a call for a cardiac arrest. He was taken to a nearby hospital, but later pronounced dead.
