Bret Michaels just recently performed for our troops in Baghdad and was also back there in 2007. God bless him..regardless, I’m a Poison fan.

When you’re packing equipment like he is, you’re gonna have problems with blood flow, I’m sure.

He has hd type 1 diabetes since he was about 6 years old. He recently needed to have his appendix removed, and his little daughter was just diagnosed with diabetes. So there’s been a lot of stress in his life.

I am a professional singer. When I was young and singing rock music, I used to get splitting migraine headaches which could only be relieved by laying on a flat floor with my head tilted back. I wouldn’t be surprised if his years of singing metal contributed to his present medical condition. Hope he’s OK.

What do you suppose is the connection between singing and your splitting headaches?

He is the drama queen on Apprentice but I hope he's OK. 47 is just too young to die.

I wonder if his diabetes was a contributing factor. Very sad news, he always seemed like a good guy.

Various news reports hint that it might be a factor, but he also had his appendix removed, and had the stress of his young daughter's diabetes diagnosis. All of that could be contributors.
