Hillary Clinton Blood Clot

Doctors treating Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday said that she suffered a blood clot in a vein between her brain and skull behind her right ear but predicted that she would make a full recovery.

Mrs. Clinton was hospitalized on Sunday with a blood clot stemming from a concussion she suffered earlier this month, a State Department spokesman said.

Her doctors said in a statement on Monday that the clot did not result in a stroke or neurological damage and that she was being treated with blood thinners.

In a statement, Drs. Lisa Bardack and Gigi El-Bayoumi, who are treating Mrs. Clinton, said: “She will be released once the medication dose has been established. In all other aspects of her recovery, the secretary is making excellent progress and we are confident she will make a full recovery. She is in good spirits, engaging with her doctors, her family, and her staff.”  (NewYorkTimes)

 

As Drudge points out, there have been many conspiracy theories, some not so far from the truth.

New York CBSLocal reports, "Clinton’s doctors said it is a “right transverse sinus venous thrombosis” in the vein in the space between the brain and the skull behind the right ear."

The official reports to the media emphasize that she did not suffer a stroke or neurological damage.

The National Enquirer (don't laugh, they have broken several legit news stories over the past few years) reports:  “Behind the scenes,Hillary has suffered blinding headaches, problems with her vision and memory, plus terrifying blackouts – and those closest to her say she’s hiding a brain cancer secret...”.

A right transverse sinus venous thrombosis, blood clot on the brain, caused by dehydration and/or concussion?  Hmmmmm?????  Not all physicians will agree with this report.

At least one reporter is questioning the report:

NBC News’ chief science and health correspondent, Robert Bazell, remarked on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton‘s recent hospitalization (for a blood clot) on Monday.  Questioning the link between the clot and her earlier concussion, Bazell said there may be more to the story. [snip]

“The problem is that concussions, when they lead to blood clots — the bloods clots are not usually treated with blood thinners, as they say she’s being treated. If she has a blood clot that occurred because she was sitting around or something, they would treat that with blood thinners, and that would be fine. But there may be more to this story that we don’t know.”  (Mediaite)

Paladin:

I thought maybe she was shacked up with Huma Abedin....

Or getting a facelift ....

[PALADIN]

Deb , from what i heard , Huma will be the adopted daughter....Anthony Weiner has fled to Katmandu and is living in Buddhist Monastery.............

If she is getting some skullwork done, maybe they will drill a hole in her skull so some of the shit can leak out and give her some relief........

Here's the story....

Hillery has brain cancer.

She is using the fall as a cover for her to be treated for the cancer.

She does not want to say anything because she feels having cancer, and her age in 2015, will hurt her chances at the Presidency in 2016.

It ain't funny, but I think this is the truth for the situation.

Still no budget, no fiscal law to avert the Fiscal Cliff, so Happy new Year folks...

[Susan Benton]

Any, all of the above work for me. OR she simply is letting the clock run out because she doesn't want to testify about Benghazi.

Of course, she really could have had a concussion, or a blood clot, or brain cancer - well, if anyone was going to get it I'm not sorry it was her.

[Tammy Swofford]

I viewed the image of Chelsea leaving the hospital and her face showed tremendous emotional stress. If her mother were talking, laughing, and behaving normally such stress would not have shown. As a nurse I have seen a wide bandwidth of emotional response to suffering during the care of my clients and their families.

Last night, and when I awakened this morning, my prayers were for Chelsea. She is an only child visiting a mother who is undoubtedly ill.

Tammy

[Debbie]

Yes, seriously, we don't wish any illness on anyone else. I read where Chelsea looked very upset and who can blame her. Hillary is her mother.

As with Benghazi, we may never know the real truth.

[Brian Sanborn]

I think it was Samuel L. Clemens (not Jackson) who stated " There are Lies, DAMN lies and Statistics." He obviously had these types of things in mind about the Fed back then as well as we do now.

[Mystical Time Traveler]

What did the Grouch say about this?

[Debbie]

Mystical Time Travelers: The Grouch is skeptical...

[PALADIN]

How anyone can feel for her is amazing.
I don't wish illness on her or anyone, but if recall back in September how she handled the murder of our people in Benghazi , then you 'll understand why a majority of people don't give a damn.

She is responsible for the murder of those people and the cover up.
And considering ALL the awful stuff she has done over the years...the lies the deceit, the corruption, why the hell should anyone feel for her !

She has ruined a lot of people.

And Chelsea from what i've read is a spittin image of her.

[Always On Watch]

I saw that photo of Chelsea.

As one who has twice faced down her husband's neurological crises (acoustic neuroma in 1993 and a major stroke in 2009), I know that look that Tammy alluded to in her comment above. Such a look is well nigh impossible to fake!

Is an MRI typical followup for a concussion? Not to my knowledge. For diagnosis of a tumor or an acoustic neuroma, an MRI with contrast is the diagnostic tool of choice.

[Aughra]

Wow you people are cracked!

Btw anticoagulants DO NOT DISOLVE BLOOD CLOTS!!
They help prevent new ones.

[Debbie]

@ Aughra:

Anticoagulant -

Drug used to prevent clot formation or to prevent a clot that has formed from enlarging.

I hope that the Secretary gets well and the Republican Party gets it's act together an beats her in the general election for the presidency...

She deserves to be beaten in the political arena because her ideas are skewed, not to languish with a medical disability that would prevent her from running for President.

I think that when anyone falls and has a concussion, as I have had, several times, get to the hospital and get checked up, dont sit at home and self repair.

As to Benghazi, Romney and his staff blew that one already on the third debate...

[PALADIN]

Jon if she runs she will win, just like Obamugabe did.
Her machine will steal the vote once again and she will win.
i'm willing to bet ya on it.

And yes Romney did blow it, but SHE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS OF THOSE PEOPLE AND THE COVER UP.
My opinion of her is : lyin, conniving, cheatin, corrupt, criminal, bitch.
Thats what she is, and thats all she will EVER be.
That she is lying in a hospital , i don't give a fiddlers fart.
What goes around comes around.
And no, i don't wish that on anyone.
She is complicit in the tearing down of our country with Obamugabe and while she was 1st lady.
And her and that turd of a husband of hers were never held accountable....so ya no tears here !

I did'nt respect her before she became injured and i sure as hell don't respect her because she got injured.....she's still the same turd she was and is.

I shed no tears for Bubba & Hillary since I found their close connections to The Muslim Brotherhood through Huma Abedin, and recently I made a bold

to inside rear window of my Volvo.
