sleep apnea is bad news, and nightly CPAP therapy is a small price to pay to stave off dementia, high-blood pressure, daytime tiredness, and premature death ...
Yeah, this is like telling someone with stage IV liver cancer that drinking alcohol is risky.
I have afib and my cardiologist (whom I see 3x a year) has me on Diltiazem (for BP) and Xarelto (blood thinner). Been doing fine - the only side-effect is I have to be off the Xarelto 3 days before a surgery.
I’m surprised that Congress did not fabricate a story that DJT wore a CPAP device and then impeached him for not telling them he did.
Bad headline, so I fixed it.
If anyone had listened to Biden speak 20 years ago, they would have come to the same conclusion...
He was always best described by words like: ludicrous, bumbling, incoherent, idiotic, etc....
So let me see if I understand the latest BS coming from the Whitehouse.
From 2008 - 2016 Joey the Sniff was VP and had the BEST MEDICAL CARE in the US. In 2008, Joey The Sniff was told he had sleep apnea. Between 2008 and TODAY, we have no idea if Joey The Sniff did ANYTHING about his sleep apnea. So ALL his annual physicals 2008-2016 NEVER MENTIONED sleep apnea. Since assuming the Throne in 2021, Joey The Sniff never mentioned sleep apnea nor has any of his doctors that perform his annual physicals.
Sleep Apnea is serious stuff.
So NOW, we learn that Joey The Sniff is using CPAP machine and that his sleep apnea impacts/caused his dementia. There ain’t hip waders high enough to wade through ALL THE BS coming out of the Whitehouse. That mark on Joey The Sniff’s face could really be from CPAP, but those marks DON’T LAST MULTIPLE HOURs AFTER taking the mask off.
Either Joey The Sniff takes naps FREQUENTLY throughout the day or he is getting special medical inhilation treatments just prior to going out in public.
FWIW, my CPAP strap mark lasts approx 30-40 minutes after waking up. YES I checked today!
The fact he’s got apnea to begin with id concering.
Apnea is largely due to being overweight.
If your neck is 17” or larger, you almost certainly have it, whether you have been diagnosed or not (other than very rare, large framed individuals).
Biden is not obese, so his apnea is not caused by weight, so that means something else is very wrong. It’s not hard to understand excess weight in your neck causing the windpipe
to narrow/collapse once you are unconscious... but that’s not his problem his problem is his BRAIN isn’t telling him to breath enough, or his muscles are too weak to suck air.
RE: “Covid will no longer be an excuse.”
The Left always has another excuse. Recently malaria found in US, earlier ebola and West Nile Virus. Flesh eating virus.
They’ll announce: put on your masks and go inside and stay there.
Photos of the Leader of the Free World.
Has anyone else thought Biden’s eyes look like he either has Asian style epicanthic folds or a new narrow shape as opposed to his look last year? Sort of squinty eyed now?
Definition:
An epicanthal fold is a skin fold of the upper eyelid covering the inner corner of the eye. It is often seen as a normal finding in very young children and is also common in people of Asiatic decent. An epicanthal fold can be an important diagnostic finding in conditions such as Down syndrome.
Usually. But not always.
BS.
