this are the causes of my cousin's death and the truth is, we can't understand the medical or technical term that has been used... can u translate it on layman's language?

immediate cause: cardiorespiratory arrest 2 degree to
antecedent cause: hypertension 2 degree to
underlying cause: myaesthenia gravis 2 degree to
other significant conditions contributing to death: pyelonephritis bilateral

i need it asap. It will be a great help! thanks.

It is unlikely that anyone here is going to give you free medical consultation on an internet forum...the liablility is just too great. Plus, in the event of litigation you run the risk of being subpoenaed(?) as expert witness.

Having said that, a little grammatical help might put you on the right course:

the "2 degree" that you are referring to...means "secondary to."

Agreed. SDN is not the place for medico-legal advice.

You can look up the terms in any medical dictionary should you desire to understand what they mean but it is not appropriate for anyone here to comment further. Thus I am closing the thread.
