Tin foil hat time: What if she knows (or at least thinks she knows) what Julian Assange has to release this week. A fainting spell would give her the excuse to go offline for a few days, and also give her the sympathy vote with the press to stay away from "piling on" with her illness in full swing. This might be a head-it-off-at-the-pass move and it could have an additional benefit -- if she's ill, she might be too ill to prosecute. Lots of mobsters use this ploy.
