IFBB superstar Tom Prince was recently admitted into a Los Angeles area hospital due to bleeding ulcers and kidney malfunction, but has since been released and is now recovering at home in Marina Del Rey. Prince told FLEXonline that his ordeal began after he saw a doctor for sharp stomach pain he had been experiencing for a couple of weeks. "I thought it was just the usual discomfort from dieting," said Prince, who was preparing to compete at the Night Of Champions on May 31. "But my wife Rebecca dragged me to the doctor's office, and after they ran some tests, the doctor told me to go immediately to an emergency room." The 34-year-old bodybuilder went straight to Harbor UCLA hospital, where he was diagnosed with bleeding ulcers and kidney malfunction. He was admitted into intensive care, where he was treated for a few days until being released.
Though still shaken by the diagnosis, Prince says he's feeling much improved, but has been instructed by physicians to hold off on bodybuilding-related activities for the time being. Also, he's been forced to follow a strict low-protein diet in order to help his body heal. "This diet is the exact opposite of a bodybuilding diet," he told us. "It's quite a change."

Prince hopes that his recovery will be complete, but he won't consider resuming his career until he gets a clean bill of health. "I'm not closing the door on my career, yet," he said. "But I'm not going to rush into it or do anything reckless. As you get older, you start to appreciate your life more, and think about the future. I definitely am done for this year, though."
 
Is it just me or does it seem like top bb'rs/wrestlers are dropping like flies? I can't recall all the names that have had problems recently, but, seems like there is quite a few. Its a bit disconcerting, considering we do a lot of the same stuff, just not as much.....
