PROMINENT FORMER NAVAL & CONGRESSIONAL PHYSICIAN HILLARY DIDNT PASS OUT FROM DEHYDRATION. IT WAS CARDIO OR NEUROLOGICAL RELATED
Dr. Zuhdi Jasser M.D. joined Steve Malzberg on Newsmax TV to discuss Hillary Clintons health concerns. Dr. Jasser was a physician for the Navy and and physician for Congress told Steve Hilarys medical emergency was not caused by dehydration.
Dr. Zuhdi Jasser: What she had was a syncopal episode. She passed out. Thats either cardiovascular or neurologic. Now, her team wants us to believe it is dehydration. She didnt appear to be dehydrated and that doesnt get fixed in 90 minutes. So I can tell you that it really appears and if I let a patient with the condition of syncope leave my office, and not get admitted, and get evaluated immediately, that would be malpractice. So theres something going on.

it was something...
btw....it does strike my how nonchalant the SS people are....
I am not going to diagnose a patient I have never laid hands on. That said, logic, common sense, and experience leads to certain valid conclusions. Many posters seem to assume that even Hillary and her team have not pursued proper medical evaluation. Don’t bet on it. They may be covering up, in fact they clearly are. She has had the benefit of the best money can buy. Away from the prying eyes. The reason Dr. Barack is always at her elbow. Clearly something is wrong and they know it. Two, this is why they did not take her to the ER. They knew WHAT the problem was, they knew HOW to make it better, they knew how to do so QUICKLY. Whatever is wrong with her, these three things are true. Whatever diagnosis they float out if it doesn’t fulfill these three criteria it ain’t the whole truth.
I am NOT saying Parkinson’s but it has to be something like that. The on/off effect of Parkinson’s treatment can make dosing tough, especially in advanced cases I do believe. My background is in surgery to eliminate the tremor, which, I assure you is very effective. I have little experience in adjusting doses for advanced cases. But it does fit the criteria. The aspiration, the immobility, etc. if this is what she has somebody is damn near working miracles to get the doses just right for her events. Countering the dis kinetic effects of the drugs, etc. is a balancing act that I still say can not be done. You simply can not take a bed ridden Parky who is aspirating and medicate her for several hours at a time to a “normally functioning” politician. I say it can not be done.
So what ever it is it has to fit the three criteria we are certain of. This takes us back to our last firm footing. Transverse Sinus Thrombosis. As I recall the Fresnell lense was on the left so I assume the thrombosis was on the left, I hear she is right handed so this is dominant hemisphere. She suffered diplopia and I imagine mild right hemispheres is which both improved with Phyical Therapy. She is on Coumadin to prevent a recurrence. Managing Coumadin for an alcoholic would be a nightmare from hell so I would imagine she has stopped drinking altogether so all the supposed diagnoses of alcoholism don’t fit.
Seizures? No. No one would put an epileptic on Coumadin. Sure, the Sinus Trombosis could have left a small cortical stroke that would be very epileptogenic but in the part of her dominant hemisphere there is no way such a stroke would have left her speech intact. So we have eliminated Parkinson’s, alcoholism, seizures. What else?
Damned if I know. I suppose I need to back up once again to firm footing. I have seen patients who were wealthy and powerful insist on treatment and care that was not recommended or usual practice. I have NEVER seen that work well. There is a reason we do what we do in the way we do. But if Hillary and her team are “balancing risks” and bringing current events into the process usual practice probably is in the back seat or seats further back in the bus.
Weekend at Bernie’s begins to look more and more probable. If her medical team really has been told to take any risk to “get the product on the shelf and keep it there for 60 days” I frankly can not imagine what medical problem that starts with what we KNOW and is compatible with taking such risks and succeeding. It is the medical equivalent of putting a man on the moon with a slide rule. Actually I would rather do that.

This guy is a frequent guest on the Mark Levin Show.
Dr. Jasser should know very well that dehydration can lead to vagally-mediated syncope, that it in fact is one of the more common causes of syncope, and that hypovolemia can most certainly be "fixed" in less than 90 minutes.
Look, I have no idea what's wrong with Hillary, and my default position is that whatever it is, she's probably lying about it. But medical doctors who are involved in politics, as Dr. Jasser is, shouldn't be spreading misinformation in the mistaken belief that it somehow helps the cause.
The video of her freezing up and then falling as she tries to enter the van looks, to me, exactly like my FIL who just passed away from Parkinson's.
However, if Parkinson's is the problem, I don't see why you would want to keep it a secret. It is a very slowly debilitating disease and it doesn't affect one's judgment, just muscle control.
Just heard on the radio this a.m. that a medical facility is registered at Chelsea address. Has anyone else heard this????
I remember my surgical internship in the early eighties. We were told a certain patient could only have two phlebotomist per week because of “who she was”. We were also told to start her on Coumadin. We were used to getting it done in three days. With three interns adjusting doses on two labs a week guess what happened. I got to scrub the emergency surgery we had to do at three AM.
I don't know exactly why Clinton collapsed, or if she has Parkinson's disease or not. But I'm pretty sure that electing a president with dementia would lead to some very big problems in this very dangerous world.
What are your thoughts? I am not asking for a diagnosis, just what disease could fit what we know?
Her nonexistent judgement is bad enough in itself. Her bad judgement in this matter only magnifies her dishonesty and her untrustworthiness.
The only thing I will say is that she appears ill, is probably concealing important information from her medical team, has certainly concealed it from her political team, and faces an uncertain future.
There are, as you know, many possible unifying diagnoses, and we lack a factual or evidentiary basis to affirm any of them.
Ali took decades to die.
I suppose it's all good for us if she continues to lie, but I think she would be better served by telling the truth.
Im a proud Deplorable, but I grow weary of people diagnosing a patient theyve never seen based on internet video....
I hadn’t thought about that - it’s an excellent point.
Makes sense; her sister hated water, too
Excellent, informed analysis. Thank you.
I would posit one other thought. It is very possible, even probable that some of things we “know” aren’t so which could/would be misleading. Perhaps she is not taking Coumadin. Perhaps she didn’t have a concussion in 2012 and had a stroke. Perhaps her event in 2012 was recovery from the surgery you perform to stop the Parkinsons tremors.
You are by far and away more informed on these matters than I, but we are talking about a congenital liar. I agree there is something neurological, cardio or cerebral vascular going on with her and she is trying desperately to hide it. If she has pneumonia it is a side effect, not a primary diagnosis.
If she had surgery for tremor it would leave bilateral thalamic lesions which on an MRI would appear to be symmetrical subcritical “lacunar” infarcts. If it were done with a gamma knife there would not even be Parietal burr holes in the skull. There may be some small evidence of frame placement on the skull but even that may be difficult to detect. Over time, even the thalamic “infarcts” would resolve to very small lesions. Four years later, or so, it might be hard to detect surgery for Parkinson’s in a patient determined to conceal it.
I've reviewed a VIP's medical records that included a meeting with three (3) medical specialists in the VIP's office!
Of course the VIP was told exactly what he wanted to hear, not what he needed to hear.
If Clinton does get good medical advice that isn't what she wants to hear, it's almost certain that it's ignored and another doctor is consulted.
The Clintons have never been forthcoming with their medical records, and that goes back to at least the 1990s.
In my residency training in the 80s I had to do 6 months of neurology. I recall one patient who had “maxed out” on the drugs. Max doses of L dopa and cogentin and he was still rigid as a board and immobile. You could passively “break” his rigidity and range an elbow and try to “tune” his cogwheel ing but he was bed ridden and immobile. I had the nurses start getting him out to a chair for several hours a day. He was “in there” aware of everything. He was there when I got there and he was there when I left.
I just can not imagine someone having a tremor so bad they got surgery several years ago being able to be “tweaked” up to the levels of performance we have seen from her yet still be so advanced as to have an event like the one on Sunday. There is either a piece missing or something we “know” is wrong. I don’t know what it is but to say we just don’t have enough data.
