My grandmother has parkinsons and has had many “black out” spells. The doctors seem to think they are a bunch of mini strokes that cause these. Looks exactly like what happens to the beast.
My dad does, too. Although he does not black out, his legs just do not cooperate.
Here is a doctor explaining Parkinson’s and Hillary’s symptoms...brave man

My mom did not have Parkinson’s, but she had mini strokes, and that is exactly what happened to her once in the waiting room of her dr’s office. Her knees, buckled and we had to prop her up Dr. referred her to a neurologist who diagnosed her with “senior onset epilepsy”. She had been having milder mini-strokes for months before that, but it was too late by then. Her brain had already been damaged. Another dr had already written her off as having Alzheimers, so she didn’t get the proper treatment.
There’s two forms of Parkinson’s. The well known one has the twiching, the other has hillary’s symptoms. This is actually an article about George HW Bush who has the lesser known version.

“While not meeting the criteria for true Parkinson’s disease (PD), vascular parkinsonism mimics many features of PD. As its name implies, vascular parkinsonism is often due to problems with the vessels in the brain regions that control movement and small strokes are the primary cause. Although small strokes will cumulatively worsen the symptoms of vascular parkinsonism, it is otherwise not considered a progressive neurodegenerative disease like PD.
People with vascular parkinsonism often experience a “lower body parkinsonism” and have trouble with walking and maintaining balance – much like people with classic Parkinson’s.”
