(Updated) Heath Ledger Autopsy Inconclusive

Today, an autopsy was performed on the body of Heath Ledger to try and find out the cause of his sudden death.
According to the medical examiner, the cause of death hasn't been determined yet and the autopsy proves inconclusive!
New York City Medical Examiner spokeswoman told PEOPLE: "The autopsy was inconclusive. We have to do further testing including toxicology and tissue testing. Neither cause of death or manner of death has been concluded. We expect additional results in 10 days to two weeks."
Although Heath suffered from Pneumonia prior to his death, it seems it was not the cause of death.
Usually if Pneumonia is the cause, the lungs would be filled with water and not air! It would be easy to identify that at the time of the autopsy.
So ... natural causes have been ruled out ... could a drug overdose be it? Whether intentional or unintentional that remains to be discovered as well!

Update after the jump

Well, there were no drugs found at Heath Ledger's home.
Only prescription medicines like Xanax and Valium and a couple more, as he was suffering from Pneumonia and Insomnia.
The rolled up money that was found, was tested and turned out to be clean ... no traces of drugs were found on it. His death is still looking like an accident.

    You know what would be great? Just getting across the truth without spectualtion and only with true solid facts. So until the results of the autopsy comes out then all can speak. There are so many things flying around - and there are no evidence to back it up. To us it's a matter of days until we find out. But to the family and friends, these days will be the toughest - my heart goes out to all.

    I just wish that the press would be quiet and respect that.

    I don't mean to be rude here but I just have to point this out - Heath is dead! I think it would be respectful to have one of your articles posted as Editor's pick. It should be the first thing that people see as it is very tradgic. Whether people know who he is or not shouldn't matter - just show some respect.
    Thank you for reading this.
    Please don't take it the wrong way.
