Hillary's Two Medical Minefields

Some of Hillary Clinton's health and medical issues are well known: a previous fall and concussion, blood clot, chronic anticoagulation, and underactive thyroid. Then there is speculation about other problems – neurologic disease including Parkinson's, post-traumatic brain injury, and seizures. And not idle speculation, either. There are numerous video clips of Mrs. Clinton's bizarre head movements and facial expressions, lengthy coughing fits, and unusual eye movements, plus her famous 9/11 collapse.

To the casual observer, whether a trained physician or someone without a medical background but with common sense, something is clearly wrong with her. A diligent press would be investigating, asking questions, demanding answers. Maybe in an alternate universe. In the present universe, the vast majority of the so-called media are circling the wagons around Mrs. Clinton, doing everything they can to avoid the issue and its implications, accusing anyone with legitimate questions about her health as a conspiracy kook – or their new term, a "healther."

Despite Mrs. Clinton and her media enablers avoiding her health issues, two serious minefields remain in her path to the White House, especially with the upcoming presidential debates. Whatever is wrong with her and causing her well documented episodes, it is neither predictable nor preventable.

Someone with severe respiratory disease can tell in advance when her breathing will become labored, due to air temperature, air quality, physical exertion, or other factors triggering a bout of wheezing and coughing. Same for a migraine sufferer, often having an aura before the skull-splitting headache. For someone working, driving, or in the public eye, such advanced warning is valuable, allowing the person to protect herself and others from potential harm.

I'm not a physician and I don't play one on tv. That said everyone knows, or should know that any kind of physical activity raises blood pressure. In Clinton's case her habit of yelling and shouting and flailing her arms around when she gives speeches will certainly raise her blood pressure and with any issues involving existing conditions like blood clots, photo sensitivity(to bright light), fainting spells and the like the more she pushes up her bp, the more of a chance she has of suffering a stroke. In which case I for one would be deliriously happy should the old slag have a stroke.

I want to shout out every time someone comments on her “collapsing.” There may be a collapse into the van here, but there is so much going on before she falls into the van! She can’t move, her right side isn’t working properly, etc.

The guy who took that video ( his name escapes me ) did more for liberty than he realizes.

You are so right about that!!!
