The late entertainer had two health conditions, according to a record shared by a Florida medical office.
Wrestling icon Hulk Hogan died in Florida last week from acute myocardial infarction, or what’s commonly known as a heart attack, officials confirmed Thursday.
The 71-year-old’s death was listed in a cremation approval form as the consequence of him having a heart condition known as atrial fibrillation, which causes an irregular heartbeat, according to the record shared with HuffPost by the Pinellas County Forensic Science Center.
He also had a history of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which is a cancer that affects white blood cells, according to the document, citing his primary care physician as the source.
CLL is the most common form of leukemia in adults. It typically develops slowly and can take months to years before symptoms develop, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
The famed entertainer, born Terry Bollea, was taken to a Pinellas County hospital July 24 after a 911 call was placed at his Clearwater home for “cardiac arrest,” TMZ previously reported. He was pronounced dead shortly after.
