    Dallas McCarver autopsy report



    Dallas McCarver, IFBB professional bodybuilder, died after an unwitnessed cardiac event contributed to by of combination of coronary atherosclerosis (a buildup of plaque in the arteries) and an enlarged left ventricle (a thickening of the heart muscle that causes it to work harder). McCarver had a family history of cardiovascular disease (genetic predisposition) including both hypertension and atherosclerosis.
    Dallas was found on the floor in his living room with food scattered around his body shortly after midnight on August 22nd, 2017. Paramedics were called and he arrived at the hospital in full cardiac arrest. He was pronounced dead at 1:03 A.M. An autopsy was performed the following day.
    Noted at the time of autopsy was an enlarged liver and kidneys, nephrosclerosis (a hardened liver), heavy lungs, and a papillary thyroid carcinoma. Prior medical history includes cholesterol issues (high LDL/ low HDL), elevated aminotransferase levels, a chronic cough and shortness of breath, and childhood asthma.
    His testosterone levels were within normal range at the time of death, despite having an elevated epitestosterone level (indicating testosterone replacement, though not abuse per se). Trenbolone metabolites were also present. Screening for additional steroids was negative, although he tested positive for caffeine and marijuana metabolites (neither of which are mentioned as contributing factors in his death). No other recreational drugs or narcotics were present. (Did not use Narcs and Party Drugs) because remember he was prepping for a show and atleast Nubain Metabolites should have been detected
    Also noted (but neither tested for, nor listed as a contributing factor in Dallas’ death) was a prior history of hGH and insulin use.

              Anthony screwed up in his analysis of the labs/results:

              1) Nephrosclerosis is hardening of the kidney, and not the liver.

              2) His test levels were high, astronomically high, and not normal. If you look at the measure, it was 550 ng/ml. That needs to be converted over to ng/dl, and after that is done, his test levels were 55,000 ng/dl. I made the same mistake too until somebody pointed that out yesterday

                I seen that posted on MD. 55k test level is insane! I remember my highest level was 4500 years ago when running QV 750mg test e ew. In that same thread at MD someone calculated that he must have been running 6-7g ew of test to have that level. How true that is I dunno - BUT, it also said he had tren in his system. Wouldn't that show elevated test levels also? So instead of 6-7g ew of test, it could have been from running high test, tren and other compounds (ie, 3g test + 1g tren + 2g deca, etc) to raise it to 55k right?

                  you know people that run 6 grams a week of anabolics?

                  ive never made it to a gram a week. ive been close but not there.

                    100 mg/w puts me at 700 ng/dL. If it's linear and he is similar 55,000 ng/dL x 1mL/w/1400 ng/dL = 39 mL/w x 0.2g/mL = 7.8 grams/w. Given that he probably metabolizes faster than me due to his long term abuse the real amount is probably closer to 10 g/w.

                      10 grams a week? do people really do this?

                      let me do some math. as the highest concentration of test i have seen is 400mg / ml, for ten grams a week he would have to shoot 8 3ml shots and one 1ml shot for 9 total shots of supertest. of the more available 200/300 mg/ml were used he would have to take 17 for 200mg and 11 for 300mg


                      thats a lot of big dose sticks. somebody dropped the ball with this kid. he did not do this all on his own

                        Chad. But Dallas was a grown man & knew how to say no if he chose. I beleive if a guy is genetically gifted, he needs only a fraction of these doses. Guys nowadays look like they come off an assembly line. Not like that back in the day - everyone had their own look.

                          Also like to add - not trying to diss him by any means here - but seems logical that's the reason for so dramatic gut distension. Gotta think the intestines were in order with everything else - very very large.

                            I read once how Haney used to empty all his vials into a giant stack all in one large vial so it could be kept track off properly. I don't remember the amounts but I do remember thinking you would have to inject with a grease gun. Yikes!
                            The older I get the better I used to be.
