Ex-USC Player: Painkiller Injections Caused Heart Attack
 


An ABC News crew and reporter were ordered off the practice field when they tried to question USC coach Lane Kiffin about the use of the painkiller.
 
Later at a news conference promoting the Sun Bowl, where USC was defeated earlier this week, Kiffin said he had no idea when or if Toradol was being used on his players, or about its risks.

"Well, if that was the case then, yeah, I did not know that until you told me," Kiffin said. "You educated me, thank you."
USC and Dr. Tibone have asked a judge to throw out Armstead's lawsuit, and in a brief interview with ABC News, Dr. Tibone denied any wrongdoing.

Toradol is basically liquid Motrin.  I am not doctor or phamacist (I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night) but I doubt that gave someone a heart attack. 
 
GO BLUE!

I would be more concerned with the underlying traumatic injury for which the supposed "Toradol" injection was needed? 
A seemingly harmless enough injury can cause severe and rapid onsets of cardiovascular problems, including shunting and heart arrhythmias. Now with the inclusion of the Toradol on top of this could cause additional problems with the CNS. 
In other words, you can really make things go south very quickly, I know, ive got the teeshirts from being there.
 
I would love to read what the initial medical reports said......
Michigan vs tsiO rivalry: 58 wins, 36 losses, 6 ties, & 9 CHEATS  Hoke: 1-1  Urban 1-1 vs. UM
