MC Quang Minh in deep coma suspected of using muscle-enhancing drugs

Patient Le Luu Quang Minh was admitted to the Ho Chi Minh City Hospital for Tropical Diseases in a state of gastric bleeding, acute liver failure, and deep coma.

Known as MC Quang Minh or De Minh, the 1988-born man was taken to the Ho Chi Minh City Hospital for Tropical Diseases by his family on the evening of July 18 due to severe stomach pain. Two days later, the patient fell into a coma and has remained in a coma ever since.

Family members said that Quang Minh had recently been lifting weights and often used muscle-building drugs of unknown origin. Suspecting that this drug was the cause of the MC's serious illness, the family brought the bottle of medicine the young man was using to the doctor to check the ingredients.

Quang Minh's sister said that her brother's health had been normal before. A few months ago, Minh had a routine health check-up and the results showed no illness.

According to doctors at the Ho Chi Minh City Hospital for Tropical Diseases, the patient suffered from gastric bleeding and acute liver and kidney failure. It is not yet clear whether the cause of the disease is related to the use of muscle-building drugs or not. Doctors are waiting for test results of the drugs the patient used.
