Elvis Presley's personal physician has decided to set the records straight by revealing the true cause of the King of rock and roll's death.
Dr George Nichopoulos, also known as Dr Nick, was Elvis's personal doctor for the last ten years of Elvis's life. According to George Nichopoulos's uncorroborated speculation over his death being caused by his fondness for junk food like cheeseburgers is rubbish even though they would not have helped what seems to have been a physiological condition which Elvis suffered from for most of his adult life.
Dr Nick paints the final years of Elvis as quite tragic with frequent accidents on stage which meant he had to change his jump suit during performances due to the debilitating condition which caused him great embarrassment.
Apparently Elvis was offered a colostomy operation but refused because of pride but the operation was not regarded as acceptable treatment at the time which may have also influenced Elvis's decision not to have the operation.
Elvis's Autopsy revealed that his colon was massively extended due to his condition, which caused the bloated appearance he had towards the end of his life due his excessive weight gain.
So Elvis Presley conspiracy theorists may have to resign to the fact that the much loved singer really is dead and now is the time to let him rest in well earned peace.
This is not earth shattering news. A book came out years ago that said this condition contributed to his death. They even had a name for it. It is cakked a "valsalva maneuver".
With apologies to Kenny – the procedure he indicates is used in cardiac testing. He might have been thinking of the Soave procedure, used in some children who have Neuronal Intestinal Dysplasia (NID) … which has some commonalities with Hirschsprungs Disease and the sort of motility problem that Elvis may have had.
If Elvis had undergone an ostomy so he could better manage his body's waste, he would have benefited from the services of the United Ostomy Associations of America, Inc. as thousands do each year. Most UOAA members find they can return to all their pre-surgery activities … dancing, singing, teaching, gardening, parenting, bike riding … you name it.

I don`t believe you find it important after almost 33 years to write this rubbish, Elvis died of a heart attack FACT! I would not trust his doctor with a rat, he over prescribed medication to Elvis and medication does cause constipation, he should be prosecuted, I hear he is working now for FED EX, take him up in a plane and drop in out over the water.
I may be wrong but I think that the author was just trying to help put the myth to bed that Elvis was still alive and wandering the Earth, Moon and Mars.
Elvis is nonetheless the King. Though he was already dead because 1977, his music even now sounds extremely fresh and modern. His legendary songs can hear it once more and yet again. It can be so lousy that quite a few talented persons have big difficulties in authentic existence. Elvis would be the ideal!
Thanks for the posting. My spouse and i have often observed that most people are wanting to lose weight when they wish to show up slim as well as attractive. Even so, they do not often realize that there are more benefits just for losing weight additionally. Doctors insist that obese people come across a variety of ailments that can be perfectely attributed to their own excess weight. The good thing is that people who definitely are overweight as well as suffering from diverse diseases are able to reduce the severity of their illnesses simply by losing weight. It's possible to see a slow but identifiable improvement in health while even a minor amount of fat reduction is accomplished gywl512.
I think weather or not he died of drugs, or the reason drugs were taken we can be sure of one thing, that has been made public since day one..he was stubborn, he was a man's man and would want none of this to get to his adoring fans. Dr. Nick (as useless as he was) was probably doing what he knew Elvis wanted. We also have to consider the colonel from "hell" in this..his influence on Elvis to keep performing, his orders to dunk Elvis's head into a bucket of ice water to revive him, so he could perform…the man was ill and needed correct treatment, and for what ever reasons he did not get it and died. All we can do is love him, and his music and let him rest in peace….
