Hulk Hogan is opening up about being caught in a «vicious cycle» when it came to prescription pills. In an interview with, the 70-year-old wrestling legend recalled no longer being in pain but still chasing after prescription pills at his pharmacy «like a dog chasing a bone.»Over the course of his illustrious career with the World Wrestling Federation (now World Wrestling Entertainment), the Hulkster endured dozens of major surgeries, including 10 alone on his back.
To treat the chronic pain following those surgeries, Hogan said pain medication always came into play. But he soon realized it was leading him down a dark path.«I had doctors writing me prescription after prescription, and all of a sudden, it became a vicious cycle,» he tells the men's health and fitness magazine.
«I was hitting the pain pills hard because I’d had to endure twenty-five procedures, including ten to my back, facial operations from being kicked, knee and hip replacements and abdominal and shoulder surgeries.»Hogan, born Terry Bollea and who got engaged to Sky Daily last month, then said about five or six years ago he was in such crazy pain that he «couldn't even function,» adding that his back, at one point, required surgery every four months. «I needed pain meds at that stage, that’s for sure,» he admits.
«But once things started to wind down, they continued giving me the same meds. It got to a point where I’d recovered from the tenth back surgery, and the pharmacy would call me and say, 'Your prescription’s ready,' and like a dog chasing a bone, I’d go pick it up.»Soon, Hogan says he came to the realization that he didn't need the meds because he was no longer in pain.
