Too much of the wrong drugs will stop your heart in your 20s. One of my friends had his heart incident before reaching 30. After wards he quit drugs and was fine. (Disclaimer - not saying this is the case - just information) I read a book called Wasted. It was about the life of a bulimic/anorexic and her health. The heart is a muscle. Like any muscle, it can degenerate with poor nutrition. This is one of the unmentioned hazards of b/a. So, it could be a variety of problems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too much of the wrong drugs will stop your heart in your 20s. One of my friends had his heart incident before reaching 30. After wards he quit drugs and was fine. I would not be surprised if it was anorexia/ eating disorder related. She lost a huge amount of weight after Clueless. Went from a normal sized attractive young woman to a twig. Its pretty tough to maintain those Hollywood standards. A lot of you are too young to remember Karen Carpenter but she died young after struggling with eating disorders most her teen and adult life. She was recovering but the damage to her heart had already been done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And most can function in society and at work without anyone knowing there is a problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tigra 0 #31 December 22, 2009 Quotenever heard that she did heroin or coke. Me neither. I was responding to two people who said she looked like a heroin addict. I think those comments were more about how thin she had gotten - the look the fashion industry refers to as "heroin chic"? I was just pointing out that people who do heroin still manage to eat - in fact, I heard that it gives you a sweet tooth. There are plenty of plump heroin addicts out there ..............

MikeRMontagne 0 #35 December 22, 2009 She was really good in just married, and will be missed,the only question I have is if it's true that her husband didn't want an autopsy preformed? Maybe he sould have a blood and Pee test done,if anything to exclude any recreational pharacuidicals.Be Brave, embrace the fear, even if your not, pretend to be.

Remster 30 #36 December 22, 2009 Quote anything to exclude any recreational pharacuidicals. What business is it to us, or society in general to know what she was doing with her life? Let her family decide unless law enforcement feels her death was suspicious.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 798 #37 December 22, 2009 Typically in this country, an autopsy will be performed on any questionable death. I would think a 32 year old death for no obvious reasons would be included in that. Tox included. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
