Last February, Playboy model Katie May died at 34 from complications from a stroke. Now, Chief Assistant Coroner of Los Angeles has found the cause of death was from a chiropractic session gone awry.
In the days before her death, she fell during a photo shoot and thought she pinched a nerve. She tweeted asking for home remedies for pinched nerves and later tweeted she was going to a chiropractor.
On Friday, she went in for a “neck manipulation.” This routine chiropractic technique ended up tearing her left vertebral artery, stopping blood flow to the brain. By Monday, she suffered a massive stroke and died a few days later.
The coroner ruled the death an accident and said he’d never seen a similar case. Asked if they would sue, Katie’s family made no comment.
This death is extremely sad, not just for horny boys on Instagram. Maybe we can all try to go to real doctors for our medical problems in the future.
Er… if you had a pinched nerve, a “real” doctor would send you to a chiro or physio… cause they are a type of “real” doctor that specialises in skeletal or muscular medicine. That’s why they go to medical school.
