I report you decide: Compare the symptoms of pneumonia with her past history with CST/DVT and the symptoms she is showing daily!
Symptoms of pneumonia caused by bacteria usually come on quickly. They may include:
- Cough. You will likely cough up mucus (sputum) from your lungs. Mucus may be rusty or green or tinged with blood.
- Fever.
- Fast breathing and feeling short of breath.
- Shaking and "teeth-chattering" chills.
- Chest pain that often feels worse when you cough or breathe in.
- Fast heartbeat.
- Feeling very tired or very weak.
- Nausea and vomiting.
- Diarrhea.
Concerns about Hillary Clinton’s health are “serious—could be disqualifying for the position of President of the U.S.,” say nearly 71% of 250 physicians responding to an informal internet survey by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS). About 20% said concerns were “likely overblown, but should be addressed as by full release of medical records.” Only 2.7% responded that they were “just a political attack; I have confidence in the letter from her physician and see no cause for concern.”
While more than 81% were aware of her history of a concussion, only 59% were aware of the cerebral sinus thrombosis, and 52% of the history of deep venous thrombosis.
CST and DVT are serious conditions and has become obvious in Hillary Clinton's decline over the last several months!
What is Cerebral Venous Thrombosis?
Most people associated blood clots in the brain with ischemic stroke, which is due to a blocking of an artery. However, clots can also form in the cerebral veins. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is believed to be less common than arterial stroke, but can also be more difficult to recognize.
What Are the Signs and Symptoms of CVT?
Because the veins drain fluid from the intracranial space, fluid builds up if the veins are blocked. This can result in elevated intracranial pressure, which leads to headache, nausea, and sometimes blurred vision. A headache is usually in just one part of the head, and gradually worsens over several days, though exceptions do occur. A headache may be worse when laying flat. Depending on the location of the vein, you may have focal deficits, such as weakness or numbness on one side of the body. Seizures are also common in CVT.
In severe cases, you can get changes in mental status that may progress to coma.
The mainstay of treatment for CVT is anticoagulation to thin the blood. Most of the time this involves a use of heparin. In some cases, an intravenous catheter may be used to remove the clot during an endovascular procedure, though there have been no well-controlled trials to study this technique. Symptoms such as seizures or elevated intracranial pressure must also be managed, which sometimes may require a stay in an intensive care unit (ICU).
What is the Prognosis?
Less than 5 percent of patients with recognized CVT die within the first 30 days as a result of their disorder. The risks are highest if the thrombosis is deep in the brain, or associated with severe altered mental status.
In the longer run, about 15 percent of patients suffer from death or a serious decline in the quality of their life over 16 months after a CVT. Men tend to do worse than women. Other risks of poor outcome include a CNS infection, cancer, hemorrhage, coma, or age over 37 years. The risk of recurrent CVT is relatively low at 2 to 4 percent.
