Clinton released health information

Anonymous
I don't think team Clinton is giving us the full story. This statement seems parsed to death which is typical of the Clinton team. Hillary clearly has a neurological problem - probably Parkinsons. She is purposely avoiding obtaining an official diagnosis until after the election so she can claim she did not lie about this. The nonsense about she is fully mentally capable does not mean she doesn't have Parkinsons. A reporter needs to ask her point blank about possible neurological problems.

If Parkinson's weren't so serious (my dad also has Parkinson's and his parents died of pneumonia from it), it would be silly. It's just an internet rumor with no basis in reality. I don't know where it came from, where it started, nor do I care.

Might be the reason she has not had a press conference in over a year? Hmmmm.

You obviously don't have a clue about actuarial science. Just because her pulse and bp is good, and a ct of her heart and brain is normal, there are a 100 other things that can affect a persons health and mortality.


You mean the actuarial science that greatly favors a 68-year-old woman whose mother died at 92, over a 70-year-old man whose father died in his early 70s from Alzheimer's which she was diagnosed with in his late 60s?

No, the fact that isolating someones health to one or two areas, which is that the pp did, is not enough. Family history is nice but it only plays a more significant part if there is a history of major illness and death in close family members at a young age. No one that knows anything about this would make such a statement as above. There is a reason there are a lot of questions asked about a persons health and lifestyle to determine what group they might fit in. In Hillary's case we already have a history of blood clots. Did her mother have that same history?

BTW, she is taking the coumadin for DVT and we know that is an effective treatment yet it recurred even so. But, DVT is a life threatening illness and can strike at any time and there are additional risk factors in taking blood thinners.

So, this isn't an assessment of her overall health, just rebutting the silly notion that a ct of someone's heart and brain, along with good blood pressure and heart rate, makes her a low risk from an actuarial standpoint.


I can't speak to actuarial science, but I can say that the brain CT rules out Parkinson's and stroke.

"There is no specific test for Parkinson’s disease, making it sometimes a difficult condition to diagnose, especially early on. Parkinsonism - the group of signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease - may have other causes, such as dementia with Lewy bodies, progressive supranuclear palsy, as well as some antipsychotic medication, toxins, head injuries, and some types of stroke."

"most MRI or CT scans of people with Parkinson's disease will appear normal."

Is that so?

That's still an experimental technique. It's not something your doctor can actually use yet.

This explains the connection with her dementia.

You are right. The Clintons have no clue how the “little people” live. They are in an alternate universe.

Did you read this rather interesting report?
"Conventional MRI cannot detect early signs of Parkinson's, so the Oxford researchers used an MRI technique, called resting-state fMRI, in which people are simply required to stay still in the scanner. They used the MRI data to look at the 'connectivity', or strength of brain networks, in the basal ganglia – part of the brain known to be involved in Parkinson's disease."

It appears they are onto something and are pursuing it further.

But, this does not mean they are using this technique here. It is an evolving science. And, she had a CT of the brain, not an MRI.

She didn't get an MRI because she doesn't have Parkinson's. Except in your head
