Tom Petty autopsy in...

Recommended Posts

BREAKING -- Tom Petty's autopsy report released, shows singer died of an accidental overdose.

 

"the singer was on several pain meds, including Fentanyl patches, oxycodone (Oxycontin), temazepam (Restoril), alprazolam (Xanax), citalopram (Celexa), acetyl fentanyl and despropionyl fentanyl. The reason doctors prescribed the meds was because of a number of medical problems, including emphysema, knee problems and a fractured hip."

 

 

Jesus....that's some heavy drugs.

Probably the first rock star to use drugs like that, hopefully other rock stars do not follow suit.

Given by doctors for a bum knee.

 

It is people's fault they abuse these things. But at the end of the day that is ridiculous amount of crap. It is like giving a guy heroin and telling him not to get addicted tho.

 

Lets ban weed tho. Lets try to put it same level as heroin. All about the money and big pharma is the nastiest.

Yeah I read that earlier. Hoped it wasn't drugs but deep down knew it was going to be the case.

 

Oh well dead is dead. He had a good life and excellent career.

I worked for a pain management group and believe it or not....all those drugs are normal for the patients that used our facility.

People who have cancer or chronic back pain are prescribed those drugs.

He asked his doc about all of those drugs the commercials told him to ask about. Unfortunately, he forgot that he was also supposed to tell his doc about everything he was taking.

All at once? Why woulf you need all of those for pain? A vicodin just doesnt do it anymore?

 

Doesnt say he had cancer. Meds are ridiculous. These sorts anyway.

That's what I thought when I first started that job. It's normal.

It blew my mind the drugs people are prescribed.

The doctor explained in a meeting that people are in pain and get accustomed to the medication. I could discuss this issue quite a bit....

The people receiving these drugs claim they need more actually and get angry that they have to come in so often to the doctors office.

We have to be sure they are actually taking their meds. Be sure they're not selling them or giving them away.

Some will self medicate if they don't get higher dosages.

While working there I knew of 2 suicides from people in constant pain and not having enough drugs.

I learned not to judge.

Which is the problem. Im no doc but it is easy to see.

 

Not letting people who abuse their meds off the hook. But that is why they end up like this. The crap is addicting. What is prescribed at first builds up a tolerance. And if you like the way you feel on them soon you will need more.

That ain't no accident rip

Probably was not. But that isnt my point. My point is how does one get on oxy xanex and fentynol? Not saying any one doc is to blame but the system is screwed. Even more screwed up when you r3alize that certain drugs are illegal yet killer addicting drugs are normal. If you cant regulate it then it is bad.

 

If big pharma could get ahold of weed or MDMA and regulate it to the point that people couldnt just produce it on their own....they would. They already do it with heroin.

 

Instead of new iphones and social media bots it would be nice if we could some how find technology in pain relief in some other form than poison.

There is no pain you are receding

A distant ship smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves

Your lips move but I cant hear what youre saying

When I was a child I had a fever

My hands felt just like two balloons

Now Ive got that feeling once again

I cant explain you would not understand

This is not how I am

I have become comfortably numb

Wow! Thats a helluva pharmacy right there.

 

Why are the talented ones always so troubled? :(

He got over demons in the 90's which was probably more recreational but I think this was more pain management gone wrong (Hip and knee)

Thats what is said. But im sure he knew he had a problem when on these. Im sure it was for pain but im sure he liked the drugs and knew one of these days he was going to mess himself up for good.

 

Big petty fan. Not ridding him of anything. Just sad to see these thins mess up so many lives and eventually kill people.

I know more about these drugs than I should. Is fentanol, idk the correct spelling not fot severe pain? How about the oxy? Why would he be doubling up on pain meds? Unless of course they were not prescribed. But articles make it seem like they were.

I'm not on any. Heck, I always got 5 pain pills prescribed for me. That's it. I don't know what you have to have or who you have to be in order to get pain meds like the ones in my last post.

I tried to find some sort of commonality.

Was it old people, young people, former military, fat people, white people, seemingly wealthier people, handicapped people...there was nothing. It's just people with the right health insurance and pain.

But you know what I noticed?

75% of the people had back complaints. That was common.

I often thought that people probably just needed a new firm mattress.

Back pain isnt a joke. I can see it. But give them a 7.5 vic and send them on their way. That right there is enough to f up their lives eventually. But all of what was on? A certainty.

WTF is wrong with you. This guy played the entire tour with a bunch of ailments, including a fractured hip which according to the statement on his website progressed to being completely broken. Dude was in pain. He wasn't getting high. I focking feel guilty for being part of the reason he felt so obligated to complete this tour instead of taking care of his health. I hope other artists learn that you can't always just play through it.

When I went to HS pill were huge. More so opioids pain meds. But any dramatic girl would have anti depresants.

 

Im not sure if I hate pain meds or anti depressants more as far as screwing up people's lives.

 

Ive seen too many people fall to this stuff. Seriously makes me sick.

My friend Dan. Don't exactly know how he got them, knew a pharmacist who want to make side cash I was told. This was late 80's early 90's.

 

They came in a blister pack 3 or 4 pills across and 10 rows down. So 30 (or 40) on a sheet. Sheets folded over 4 or 5 times

 

I don't remember exactly what I was paying but in relative terms it was cheap and a steal. Maybe $.50 a pill. 200 pills $100.

 

Dan could of gotten you anything. Glad he eventually moved to Vermont and I was able to quit my pill habit. With rehab.

why a waste? because he was into drugs and died? Made it to 66. Not bad considering.

 

wasn't he from Jacksonville? I think I have heard that area is underrated for music.

 

What more was he going to be to you at this point?

 

I never made a show although I was supposed to. Just not a concert guy and didn't grow up in that era. But my buddy just a few years ago went and said his live shows still rocked.
