Michael Jackson's Supposed Drug Cocktail: Demerol, Dilaudid, Vicodin, Zoloft, Xanax...

The Sun:

Jacko, 50, was taking up to THREE powerful narcotic pain relievers at the same time when any more than one is deemed potentially fatal. Sources close to the singer's entourage said he was injected three times a day with Demerol - the potent painkiller given to him before his collapse at home in LA on Thursday.

Jacko, who suffered a heart attack, was taking another painkiller, Dilaudid. And sources said he had recently been prescribed yet ANOTHER narcotic pain reliever, Vicodin.

Dilaudid... Elvis' favorite. MJ warned Lisa he would go out like her dad.

This story is not about the autopsy report. If you want to comment on that, you're at the wrong page. This story is about his drug abuse.

This article has been on by the SUN is bogus. Why Huffington Post hasn't taken it down is beyond me. THe LAPD has already issued a statement acknowledging this.

From TMZ.
We've learned the story making the rounds detailing the terrible condition of Michael Jackson's body is a fake.

A report in The Sun gave harrowing details of the body, but we've learned the "autopsy report" was fabricated and completely false.

UPDATE: The Los Angeles County coroner just released the following statement:

"The report that is being published did not come from this office. I don't know where the information came from, or who that information came from. It is not accurate. Some of it is totally false.

Let's not forget two things about this doctor (who is now madly spinning, with his lawyer):

#1 he did CPR while Jackson was on his bed. EVERYONE knows CPR is supposed to be done on the floor. It makes me wonder if the doctor was in full possession of his faculties at the time. Really.

#2 he did not go with the paramedics to the hospital. That it a SHOCKING dereliction for an attending (and "on salary at the time") physician. He did not even drive his own car to the hospital to sign a death certificate.

Something is very very wrong with this man I hope he doesn't just go back to Texas, no questions asked.

I cant stop reading about this, and so far everytign that Ive read suggests raises a few questions.
First, the guy was a physical mess: balding, full of scars, practically anorexic with no food found in his stomach during the autopsy. Why didnt his family and entourage tell him, look , man...here's what we gotta do, or you are going to die? Either they didnt know cuz Michael jumped down their throats each time they tried to intervene on his behalf, or they just didnt care and were focused on the AEG O2 arena show and the Jackson return to glory (and DVD sales). The other issue that comes to mind is that if MJ had repeatedly rejected medical attention that told him he was falling apart, then it appears obvious that he was slowly kiling himself. MJ wanted to die. This was suicide without the gun or the bridge; a long, slow, suicide.

Denial. That's what killed Michael Jackson. Denial.

Maybe because a lot of UK papers are no better than the National Enquirer

[Harrier]

I think Dr. Conrad Murray will require legal help if he was involved with prescribing Demerol. I still cannot process the fact any doctor could allow that given the other safer choices available. I'm amazed a modern day doctor doesn't have the sense to take person off the bed and onto the floor when trying CPR. Apparently before the doctor arrived, it was the former nanny that saved MJs life by pumping his stomach. Clearly MJ was addicted and taking action to continue his addiction. But licensed doctors are not allowed to enable a drug addiction. I say this knowing the doctor, a cardiologist had been his personal doctor for 5 months...Long enough to get a program in place and on the right track

[Annemariefay]

Such painkiller doses and combinations would not even be used for terminal cancer sufferers.
If his personal physician knew about this and continued to inject him with Demerol, then he is
partly responsible, or at least, derelict.

[maryyooch]

That drug mixture makes no sense. If he was taking Dilaudid on a regular basis, then Vicodon and Demoral would not have made him feel any different. It would be like taking an aspirin.
Dilaudid is more like heroin. After your body adjusts to it, then the other two meds would have been a waste of time. He would just want more Dilaudid.
Let the rumors begin!

Could Michael Jackson have died from Lupus?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bonnie-fuller/the-real-reason-for-micha_b_221825.html

Lupus sufferers frequently die in their 40s and 50's from sudden heart attacks, caused by atherosclerosis.

[Fudgefase]

It was obvious for many years that he was surrounded by people who simply would not say no to him; whether in relation to his surgeries or his behavior or his health. He seemed to trust no one for years. That was what killed him - a lack of a real friend.

[adabar]

About Michael Jackson's 50 concert dates, can all charitable musicians donate a day or two of their time to perform covers of MJ's songs? OR Can all fans who bought tickets leave it as a charitable donation? Just a thought...

[KennyFox]

AEG is quiet on this, but Ive heard rumors that this will happen. Madonna speerheading?

[cyndeewi]

Why are you guys reporting what close sources are saying. Wait for the reports from the autopsy and stop trying to smear him further.

[lil11]

Excellent!

Paxil alone will send you out the freaking window.
