Al Jazeera Interview with Lamo: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-U-omBeZMxc To me he looks very sedated or on something for sure
Edit: Apparently it is, hadn't seen this before: https://youtube.googleblog.com/2018/02/greater-transparency-...
And Lamo was his name'o.

How fast could kidney failure have reached a critical point? Couldn't he have sought medical assistance?
I just read the article and the journalist did a really good job of getting the medical examiner to cough up a few more details, as well as other people in Lamo's life. Based on this evidence, I am relatively confident that Lamo died from acute toxicity that was accelerated by advanced stage kidney failure. The cause of this kidney failure is almost without doubt due to the quantity, type, and lack of purity of all t…
When I was in hospital for my kidney transplant one of the patients in my bay was an older man who was self dosing with zinc and due to a reaction with his prescription meds had a total shut down of kidney function.
I'm not a physician and could be wrong, but is not necessarily a voluntary overdose/suicide IMO. Looks like an accumulative problem. Valeriana root is a sedating but also has the effect to slow the ratio degradation of substances on liver. The liver is coping with more substances/drugs etc on a given time and the result is like a tetris effect. Drugs do not have enough time to exit the body. I assume that this could…
I'm guessing you mean something else there. "Physician"? "Pathologist"?

I'd have to go back and look at the report but I believe he was dead for around a week before being autopsied. I believe that the examiner said it was not possible to confirm or deny any marks on his skin that would have signified external trauma, such as that from a syringe or something if Lamo was "assassinated covertly". In all honesty, Lamo did a lot of drugs in his earlier years and in his later years he was ove…

I suspect living out in the country and with the USA's medical system he may not have wanted or be able to access suitable medical advice.

There are an awful lot of people turning up dead with connections to pending investigations and court cases lately...
To manage this stress wouldn’t it follow you’d see increasing rates of self-medication through drugs, alcohol, over-/under-eating, etc. within this population?
I independently investigated Lamo's death. The most likely cause of death is related to kidney failure as per the autopsy posted of the medical examiner's website. Whether the cause of the kidney failure was related to his diet or to some external actor is unable to be determined due to the decomposition of the body when they found it. RIP
> due to the decomposition of the body when they found it This gives me the impression that he was dead for quite a while before he was found. If that's true how do we have a precise date for when he died?
maggots can tell us that. And there are the last messages sent also, that will help a lot to narrow the date.
If the data obtained by maggots predates the last messages we could expect foul game (sending messages after their death would need some explanation), but this is probably not what the researchers will find.

That certainly looks like the cause then did they say what his Creatine level was. When I was in hospital for my kidney transplant one of the patients in my bay was an older man who was self dosing with zinc and due to a reaction with his prescription meds had a total shut down of kidney function.
I dont want to get the units or numbers wrong, but I remember it being something like 55 mmol when a normal score is 1mmol. It's been almost a year since I read the report in full. The examiner said that his creatinine score is higher than lethal injection recipients, hence the speculation about foul play.
Very interesting story you relayed~~ the kidneys are an incredibly sensitive organ compared to the stomach or lungs, it seems!
