Watch it, buddy, you’re messing with a messiah of sorts.
LOL!

Yup. You’re right; it sounds like MS.

Cheers

I caught a bit of that too. Didn’t he mention turning to Buddhism for hope, something like that? I came in in the middle and only listened briefly, so may have misunderstood. Sounded like he was really down.

Does he slap his feet against the floor when he walks? Is it reported that he has trouble walking in the dark?

Our (male) friend was diagnosed with MS around 45-50. “Average” age is only that.

Or, a tumor...

-—Ever notice how people who rub the government the wrong way suddenly develop a brain tumor?

I think Glen needs to consider making an adjustment in his schedule. The tv show, the 3 hr. radio show, the book writing, and the appearances are too much.

Anyone under this much pressure could possibly find himself in a state of exhaustion.

Plus, focusing on liberals and their plots to destroy this country as much as he does, could literally make you sick.

I, personally, try to avoid thinking of Obama as much as possible.

Best regard to Glen.

Thank you for your long and impressive service to our Country. I certainly hope they figure out what is going on. Seems a lot of our Vets are having post combat issues.
God Bless,
Mc

One of my mentors was a retired three star former head of Defense Intel Agency.

He once told me, “When something odd happens that greatly benefits the enemy, ALWAYS BE SUSPICIOUS.”

Notice the parallel to Rush losing his hearing. “Autoimmune disease” often means the docs can’t figure out what happened.

Nerve poisons can be administered stealthily over a period of time to escape detection via food, water, air, contact with the skin, etc. Organized crime has the high priced hitmen who know how to do such things and the dims have plenty of contacts (Chicago?).

The Russian mode was to use multiple agents (bio/chem/rad) together at low levels to keep from setting off NBC detectors.

Would leftists really try to murder Beck? Read their vitriol and decide for yourself.

‘Whatever it is, I hope it’s not only treatable but curable.

All the best to Glenn and the Beck family.’

I agree and feel the same way...

prayers for Glenn and family

Big headline on Drudge right now:

Glenn Beck Reveals He’ll Undergo Medical Tests for Combination of Conditions (videos)

This is worrisome, IMO.

FReepers: Please keep Glenn Beck in your prayers...

Good post: you’ve got it exactly right - it certainly does sound like MS but people shouldn’t be jumping to conclusions. I’ve had it for about 8 years (that I know of) and your statements are accurate with one caveat:

I believe the cold-climate link does not really apply to the individual but rather his lineage: i.e., the further your ancestors lived from the equator, the greater the odds that you might have it. The speculation is that MS may be triggered by lack of vitamin D exposure (cold climates, less sun.

Also, in addition to men tending to have a more difficult course, if you are older when the disease manifests itself it tends to take a more aggressive form (progressive rather than relapsing/remitting).

I recall him mentioning having difficulty walking when he gets up sometimes. Very painful.

Does anyone know what hospital “out west” he is going to? I know a great one in Billings Montana that I would recommend in a heartbeat.

Panic disorder can totally mimic MS.

I’ll most likely get flamed for this, but, last night on his show he said he drinks Coke Zero...that stuff has aspertame in it. I don’t know what else he digests that’s ‘diet’ but it would be a good ingredient to eliminate from his diet to see if he is reacting to the chemical.

A lot of people react to aspertame in bad ways - I can’t touch the stuff anymore after a few years of ingesting it (stopped in the mid-80’s) If I consume a tiny bit now - I know it.

There’s a lot of info out there on different side effects. Most people say it’s conspiratorial and bunk but it’s good to eliminate the ingredient to see, if you are experiencing any bad health symptoms. I’ve read that aspertame can mimic MS symptoms, whether true or not - can’t hurt to rule it out.
