Elvis was a sleepwalker and would take pills to keep him from doing do. He suffered from a twisted colon and was diabetic. There is some talk from Larry Gellar and Prescilla that Elvis was in the early stages of bone cancer , which would explain the pain he was in during his later years.

YES.

As a child Elvis suffered from (including but not limited to); chronic sleep apnea, chronic insomnia, sleepwalking, Asthma, Allergies, painful headaches, and problems with his eyesight.

When Elvis became a teenager his asthma/problems with his eyesight improved. But Elvis recalled in an interview "by the time I could run without my lungs hurting or read a book without squinting I got bad acne.

As an adult Elvis' physical, emotional, and mental issues deteriorated. These included depression, (possible) bipolar, heart disease, heart attacks, mobility and pain in his knees, thyroid problems, low testrone problems, food allergies, chronic problems with his colon, problems with his eyes attributed by the "light show" when he performed in concert PLUS hundreds of flash bulbs going off during his concerts, eating disorders, sinus/throat infections, and depending on who you choose to believe (as an example Charlie Hodge said this during several interviews) ...cancer.
