    Anyone feel that Dana sensationalized the story a little?

    That's not a real good situation. Those pockets will always create a risk of future infection, not to mention the risk of rupturing.

    That depends on whether one of those pockets ruptured. If that happens, the infection can spread throughout the abdomen and be fatal, or at least damage other organs.

    I mean, I knew it was serious...but like, it just seems like Dana was over the top dramatic with it.

    Maybe not, anyways, good to see Brock on the path to recovery.

    He probably didn't have a clear idea what it was.

    Dana - "Doc what's the diagnosis?"

    Doc - "Brock has diverticulitis"

    Dana - "What the fuck is that?"

    Doc - "It's a rupturing of the stomach that can be fatal"

    Dana - "Holy Fuck. So Brock can fucken die from this? That doesn't fucken sound good at all. I better fucken let the fans know. Fuck"

    First and foremost Dana is a promoter and he'll sell any angle hard.

    Can't really tell from the jacket being on, but he does look thinner. Still looks big as fuck, though. Does that even make sense?

    He looks like someone who recently had diverticulitis.
