No cause for the collapse determined, but he could play again late next week:

Sabres prospect Mark Pysyk, who was briefly hospitalized Feb. 28 after collapsing during a pickup basketball game in Rochester, skated with the Amerks on Wednesday.

 

Despite a battery of tests, the cause hasn’t been determined, according to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

 

“All the testing I’ve done since it happened, they didn’t find anything,” Pysyk told the paper. “So there’s nothing to really worry about now, I don’t think.”

 

The 23-year-old will be able to participate in a full-contact practice next week, according to the paper. He could play again March 20.

With all the flu bugs going around, it could have been anything including dehydration.  See a lot of this in the ER this winter with people in lesser condition than Pysyk.

Med prof isnt sure either but it is known certain severe viruses can either cause or create circumstances/ conditions where a seizure(s) can occur usually associated with a spiking fever.

Paging Greg House. I'm going with an environmental cause. He had a reaction to whatever they used to clean the hardwood floor at the gym. Murphy's Oil Soap can throw you for a loop. That, or a deer tick in his .

A little worrisome but not overly so, at least not yet.  It could be some kind of virus that just takes a while to work through the system.

 

 

Or it could be anxiety.  Or a real cardiac thing.  We don't know (insert number signs for a four-letter word).

I doubt it's a cardiac thing since they checked him out right after it happened.  But you're right; all the possibilities need to be checked.  Anxiety is a real possibility.  My wife once got taken to the hospital with chest pains and that's what it turned out to be.... that and a touch of asthma.

My girlfriend had one and never had another............She was out drinking the night before, and they sometimes can happen from alcohol withdrawal.  He might have been drinking after the game that Friday night.

Anxiety about what? That Murray might re-sign Beano and Mess and he'll miss his entire prime stuck in Ra-cha-cha because 2 guys that belong in the Swiss league are entrenched ahead of him?

An anxiety disorder. Come on.

Anxiety, or some psychiatric aspect, is within the realm of possibility.

 

I still think it more likely that this is part of some larger viral syndrome. Of course, what do I know.

 

What I do know: I'd have docs outside of WNY treating the guy. No slag on Buffalo or Rochester docs, but, if it's something unusual, you want major market physicians on the job.

Let's crowd source someone else's health crisis! I was thinking viral, too. You spike a fever and a seizure can result. The immune system has fought something off but the body is still worn down from the fight, even for a professional athlete. Feeling a little off after demanding workouts with the team wouldn't be surprising. But I need to know more about that gym. Aud, you get over to the joint. Look behind the lockers.

He's done for this year. They won't let him play. He can't do full workouts.

Thank you for this...maybe I missed it but was there a diagnosis of what happened ? Prognosis for recovery/ therapy?

They still don't know what is up with him. Still doing more tests.
