Experts: Clinton's Condition Could Have Been Serious

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was lucky that, being the top U.S. diplomat, her medical team had thought to do a follow-up MRI after her concussion last month, medical experts told ABC News on Tuesday.

The doctors said that Clinton's latest health update -- cerebral venous thrombosis -- is a rare and potentially "life-threatening" condition, but one from which the globe-trotting secretary of state is likely to recover from.

In an update from her doctors, Clinton's brain scans revealed a clot had formed in the right transverse venous sinus, and she was being successfully treated with anticoagulants.

"She is lucky being Hillary Clinton and had a follow-up MRI -- lucky that her team thought to do it," Dr. Brian D. Greenwald, medical director at JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Center for Head Injuries, told ABC News. "It could have potentially serious complications."

The backup of blood flow could have caused a stroke or hemorrhage, according to Greenwald.

And only the part of her brain that contained any memory of the Benghazi event will have been damaged to the point that she has no recall.

Where are the news reports of William Jefferson holding vigil at Hillary’s bedside?

Seems there’s disagreement in the medical community as to whether blood clots associated with concussion are treated with blood thinners or not.

Real doctors, experts in the field say “No”.

The ficticious doctors allegedly attending Hillary, are quoted as saying “yes”.

I’m trying real hard to understand Hillary’s present situation.

At first I thought she tripped over a footstool as a result of a drug induced stupor while playing snap-on-tools with one of her lesbian friends. Then, in order to avoid testifying, she hit herself in the head deliberately with a hammer.

Now she’s apparently injured herself seriously flying a fighter plane against the Syrian government forces.

Shove a steel plate in her skull and discharge her. Perhaps her entire brain will be revamped and we might actually understand the prattle that gets regurgitated from her ugly mouth.

Yeah and a hang nail could lead to a fatal infection. Hillary’s blod clot is a convenient diversion and she will never testify before Congress about the Benghazi fiasco.

Because, unfortunately, this event has affected her memory, and she is unable to recall.

All of which means that she’s lucky she was a government big wig, and not some poor rzlub on Obama-care.
