Yea I buy it. She had a stomach virus that led to dehydration that led to fainting which resulted in a concussion. It's not uncommon. Same thing has happened to me twice----once when I had the flu and once when I had internal bleeding from a ruptured ovarian cyst. The concussions were a setback but not nearly as annoying as the blackeyes and goose-egg on my forehead.

Yea. Is there a time limit you are aware of?

Had a girl on my daughter's soccer team that got a concussion during a game. It was over a month before she could consistently tell you what month it was or the name of her school, etc.

Not saying that they aren't pulling something in Clinton's case though...

Doesn't seem excessive to me. Not only because of my own health history, but in my career in nursing I have seen people with head injuries, with or without underlying infections or viruses, recover or die in one day or in 6 months. Same with strokes; some people go home or die the same day, others go home or die months later. I wouldn't dream of putting a time limit on anyone's recovery from any of those things.

Oh, Gee!!

exactly. Wild Cobra still hasnt recovered from an obvious brain injury. Matter of fact he is stupider now.

Usually, when it's called a concussion, it's the more mild for of these common head traumas.

mrsmaalox

12-28-2012, 12:14 PM

No, concussions can be very severe (my mom's death certificate says "closed head injury-severe concussion" on it). I admit that the fact that Clinton was not hospitalized is an indication of a mild concussion, but the care instructions for even a mild concussions estimate up to a 2-3 week recovery time. Then you can add that she is not only recovering from a mild concussion, but also a stomach virus that was severe enough to cause the extreme dehydration that led to the fall in the first place.

You just want it to be something else so you can holler "Cover up!" :lol

I fell and slammed the back of my head on concrete about a little over 6 months ago. I even told everybody my goodbyes in case I don't wake up the next day. I don't feel any effects or anything so you think I'm healed from it?

It could be real, but with the Clinton's you never know. I will accept the released reasons for now, but it will always be in the back of my mind, that she has some medical condition that would hurt her run for presidency. That is if she decides to.

6 months out of your injury should be healed, especially if you aren't having headaches. Incidentally, falling and slamming the back of the head is a common cause of death among drunks on barstools.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I was just wondering because I've heard stories of people getting brain scans coming out black because they never got checked out for a previous concussion.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been admitted to hospital in New York with a blood clot, officials say.

Mrs Clinton suffered a concussion earlier this month after fainting and falling down.

At the time, she was reported to have had a stomach virus and to have passed out after becoming dehydrated.

Mrs Clinton is due to stand down as secretary of state before US President Barack Obama officially begins his second term in January.

Doctors discovered the clot during a follow-up examination on Sunday, her spokesman Philippe Reines said.

Mrs Clinton is being treated with anti-coagulants. She was admitted to New York-Presbyterian Hospital, where she will remain for the next 48 hours so that doctors can monitor her medication.

She is expected back at her desk on Monday, Mr Reines said.

If you are speaking of me, I am not GOP. It is understandable to suggest that a Clinton would fake something to be unavailable for something else, but not for this long. Something really is wrong with Hillary. Past a a week or two, her future in politics diminishes if she wanted to stay in the high levels. Her mental health will now be a topic for any office she seeks requiring a vote or confirmation.

I didn't say she has a mental health issue. I brought up the fact that if something was fake, they wouldn't have carried on the charade this long. In politics, the truth be dammed, and innuendo is a powerful weapon.
