Matthew Perry spent final days 'angry and mean' after testosterone shots says friend
Matthew Perry, who was best known for playing the funnyman Chandler Bing in the sitcom Friends, tragically passed away on 28 October this year.The actor was found unresponsive in his jacuzzi at his LA home, before being pronounced dead at just 54 years old. Recently, the late actor's autopsy report was shared, which confirmed the star had died from the "acute effects of ketamine." It also stated further contributing factors to Matthew's death, which included drowning, coronary artery disease and the effects of buprenorphine.The post-mortem explained that the latter can be "used to treat opioid use disorder." According to the document, Matthew had been "receiving ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety," but his last dose was reportedly taken one and a half weeks before he died.Therefore, the autopsy revealed that "the ketamine in his system at death could not be from that infusion therapy, since ketamine's half-life is three-to-four hours, or less." Elsewhere in the autopsy report, it states that a female friend had described Matthew's personality as "angry and mean" in the weeks leading up to his death.
