Dr. Drew ‘gravely concerned’ about Hillary Clinton’s health care
Global News ^ | August 17,2016 | By Chris Jancelewicz

On his daily KABC radio show, TV personality and medical doctor “Dr. Drew” Pinsky weighed in on Clinton’s potential health problems.

Dr. Drew says that he’s “gravely concerned” for Clinton, but not about her health. He believes she may not be receiving the right treatment for her condition. “She’s receiving 1950-level care by our evaluation,” said Pinsky. “She had two episodes of deep-vein thrombosis, she also has hypothyroidism. She’s being treated for that condition with something called ‘Armour Thyroid,’ which is very unconventional and something we used to use in the 1960s.”

He goes on to describe Clinton’s doctors’ medication choices as “weird,” saying “certainly a presidential candidate would get one of the newer anticoagulants.”

Pinsky also notes the rarity of her CVST (of which he’s only had one other case in his entire career), and that in order to have it something has to be wrong with her coagulation system.

“Oh, by the way: Armour Thyroid [is] associated rarely with hypercoagulability. So the very medicine doctors are using may be causing this problem, and they’re using an old-fashioned medicine to treat it — what is going on with her health care? It’s bizarre. Maybe they have reasons, but at a distance, it looks bizarre.”

* CVST is a rare form of stroke, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. It occurs when a blood clot forms in the brain’s venous sinuses. When the blood clot forms, blood can’t drain from the brain — ultimately, blood cells break and leak into the brain tissues causing a hemorrhage.

It’s incredibly rare, affecting about five in one million people each year, according to U.S. estimates. The symptoms include headache, blurred vision, fainting or loss of consciousness, loss of control over movement in parts of the body and seizures.

I beg to differ. As a Catholic, I refuse to turn the other cheek anymore. And, there is the 9th circle of Hell that is waiting for her treacherous soul (if she actually has one).

Does the Left about to realize that Hillary Clinton is being treated medically like what Dr. Theodor Morell did with Adolf Hitler? Morell's treatments is said by many to make Hitler's medical condition from the effects of syphilis worse, not better.

In short, whatever medical treatment Hillary is getting now could result in a very early demise.

I’m not a fan of Dr. Drew either.

I have had patients who could “tell the difference” between Synthroid and Extract and did not want Synthroid. More than a few.

Good, good.

The earlier the better.

In fact, today would be fine.

Good! Let them continue the outdated treatment, maybe they will succeed in killing her! Maybe her doctors are Satan’s Angels!

I take issue with his evaluation of Armour Thyroid. Yes, it’s been around a long time, but not everybody can take Synthroid. I can’t, and I take Armour Thyroid. That’s about the only thing on which I empathize with her.

I’m gravely concerned too about her health: should she drop out before the election, methinks enough “NeverHillary” voters would vote for her replacement for Trump to lose.

< So “someone” in the media is finally admitting that Hillary has a health problem.

Now we just need a psychiatrist to admit that Hillary has a mental problem too. That should be easy to prove. Just go to the WH and try looking at her in person when she's walking in the halls and film her reaction. They say she goes crazy if you make eye contact with her. I'd like to see that on video posted online for all to see.

Maybe she should line up to get the kind of ‘healthcare’ they get in the UK or Canada, since she seems to love socialized medicine so much.

Looks like the Witch’s health and fitness to serve issues are getting real legs as we get into the really intense campaigning season.
