When Lou Gehrig began showing symptoms of the disease is not really known but his performance on the field started to drop off during the 1938 season and he also complained about being tired a lot. He was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in June, 1939 and passed away on June 2, 1941. So he lived 2 years after being diagnosed with the disease and may have been showing symptoms a year before he was diagnosed.
To not be too facetious, I'll put it bluntly.He died from his own disease.Lou Gehrig's disease.You usually retire from your profession when you're about to abruptly die.To answer another question, which makes more sense: What is Lou Gehrig's disease?A disease of the neurons, or more specifically the motor neurons, affecting your ability to move. This eventually leads to total paralysis, muscle loss, and then death.
