Long-term health issues that might not be sufficiently addressed by her current treatment could pose a major problem for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and — if she were elected — could hurt her ability to serve as president, according to nationally syndicated radio and HLN host Dr. Drew Pinsky.
“Why is somebody who’s running for the president of the United States getting such shoddy care?” Drew said. “My problem is the quality of the overall care she is getting.”
Clinton could be suffering from long-term health issues that are linked to a concussion and blood clot, according to concerns expressed by security and health officials in a recent news report. The Clinton campaign denies Clinton has health issues and reports her as “healthy.”
Dr. Drew, after reviewing Clinton’s doctor’s health statement, said Clinton had “peculiar medical histories.”
“Forget the politics… my physician senses are tingling and I’m worried about the human being who also happens to be a presidential candidate,” he said.
“She’s had twice a clot in her leg – these are serious clots that lead to something called pulmonary embolism, which can also cause sudden death. So, she has an underlying recurrent blood clot in her leg, a clot in her transverse sinus…why is she clotting?” he asked.
“And then why would you leave her on the oldest and sort of most treacherous anticoagulant? If you’re going to leave somebody on an anticoagulant, why the oldest, old fashion anticoagulant … Wouldn’t you think somebody who’s a candidate for president (would) have one of the newer anticoagulants that are safer?”
Dr. Drew said Clinton’s doctor noted she has thyroid issues, and she is using “treatment from the 1950s.”
“By the way, thyroid problems can lead to hypercoagulability,” he added. “She’s not getting the proper treatment for hyper thyroid.”

Alrighty, then. Let’s hope that Hillary never changes her doctors.
