🚨JUST IN🚨

The Washington, D.C. Medical Examiner’s Office has preliminarily ruled that Senator Lindsey Graham died from “Aortic Dissection due to Arteriosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease.”

This means a tear developed in the wall of his aorta as a result of hardening and narrowing of the arteries caused by long-term cardiovascular disease.

Holeeeey shit.

As someone who suffers from blood clots myself, I would not be surprised if, after Lindsey's long flight from Ukraine, he experienced a pulmonary embolism, which can feel like a heart attack when you're having it and is a real widow maker.

If your doctor has you on blood thinners, take them. It's not a joke. A pulmonary embolism can kill you before you hit the ground.

🫀Now that’s it’s been revealed that Senator Lindsey Graham died of an aortic dissection, I wanted to provide some clarity as to what it is (and isn’t).

As you see👇, the aorta is like the water main, a huge artery that sends oxygenated blood to the entire body. It’s under extreme pressure - every time the heart beats, it expands a little and has to withstand the force of blood pumping. To do this, it has to be elastic - able to bounce back after being stretched.

In some individuals with atherosclerotic disease (hardening of arteries), the inner aorta wall becomes hardened. Imagine a very old rubber band that is brittle and crumbles when you stretch it rather than stretching and bouncing back. The aorta wall crumbles slightly, allowing blood under high pressure to make its way between the inner and outer walls of the aorta.

After just a few heartbeats (insufficient time to really do much about it in many cases), the blood peels the inner and outer walls of the aorta away from one another, causing it to burst. I’ve treated a patient with it - and he didn’t make it. It’s tough to survive.

How to avoid this? Tough to detect in advance that it’ll happen. So… Eat well (including fatty fish with Omega 3’a), lower your cholesterol, keep your blood pressure normal (exercise and weight loss help a lot).

May Senator Graham rest in peace.
