But I know Parkinsons, tragically, twice, and have seen other Parkinsons patients from time to time. I know the early and late stages. She lacks most of the early stage symptoms especially the shuffling gait.
It is possible she has Parkinsons and is on some new med and/or attached to a brain stimulation electrical device. There are new things now other than the dopamine replacement therapy. I can say for sure she does not have the dopamine overdose symptoms or the classic early Parkinsons symptoms. Under care Parkinsons patients can live for decades and die of something else, or they can fall and deteriorate from inactivity.
Thank you.
Others have commented in the past, that Hillary exhibits symptoms like Stage 3 Parkinson’s, and is clearly falling regularly. No doubt that they would have worked hard on disguising any telltale shuffling gait, during her brief, controlled appearances.
She has probably been living with her condition for some time already (perhaps over a decade), and it has been intensively managed. She has been repeatedly seen accompanied by board-certified neurologists just a step away at public events.
It is likely not her only problem. We know she has thyroid issues and is overweight, likely with some alcohol-related issues. She is 70.
In the past, posters have proposed vascular dementia, as the best diagnosis to explain some of her symptoms (like seizures). That was the diagnosis in her supposedly leaked medical records. She could have that, in addition to Parkinson’s, and it could have been triggered by her trauma in the plane crash when Secretary of State. Vascular dementia is slowly progressive, but faster than Parkinson’s. If that’s it, cognitive issues are about due to start, during this Presidential term.
