[quote][i]Originally posted by janerd75[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by CCharger[/i] ETA: Any idea what this "new test" that Bryan had done that convinced him to retire was? He said he had CAT scans and MRIs and visited neuro-psychologists. I wonder what this new test was that he spoke about was. Any medical folks on the bOOards have a clue? [/quote] I don't want to pile on with speculation regarding Bryan's condition, but outside of the concussion issue, of which there are varying degrees of pass/fail betwixt his and WWE's doctors, the first thing that came to my mind as the problem was some kind of underlying neurodegenerative issue they discovered and that would be Parkinson's Disease. The ultimate causal factors for getting it aren't known, but there are strong indicators a genetic predisposition combined with whatever possible environmental factors may help trigger it. Bryan's triggers could have been every time his head struck the mat. As for him only being 34, Michael J. Fox was diagnosed at 31. Muhammed Ali at 42. Though I believe Ali has Parkinsonism and pugilistic dementia (like Forrest Griffin in the UFC), which is vaguely less bad than the real deal, but you're really just comparing Granny Smith with Red Delicious apples at that point. I hope I'm wrong but it wouldn't surprise me to hear in the next few months or years him announcing he has it well after he takes time off for himself before that whirlwind of publicity starts up. Because given who Bryan is, I've no doubt he would fight the good fight like Fox does. Legal Note: Janerd is not a licensed physician nor should his advice be taken for anything other than gifs or sneaking in a [url=http://hugelolcdn.com/i/204427.gif]nudie[/url] shot without warning. He does, however, have personal knowledge and experience in dealing with a Parkinson's addled family member. [Edited on 2-9-2016 by janerd75] [/quote]
