Bush apparently is wearing a medical device for "persons at risk of cardiac arrest." It is a LifeVest wearable defibrillator. He started using it sometime after his January 2002 fainting spell, which was attributed to choking. Based on photos showing him wearing the device, one can conclude the fainting was due to atrial fibrillation (AF), which his father also had. His father's AF was caused by Graves' hyperthyroidism, which his mother also has. Bush likely has AF and less likely Graves', based on his family history and symptoms. The AF may have caused a stroke or TIA (mini-stroke), of which physicians watching the debates detected symptoms. Observers have noted psychological symptoms consistent with this and with Wernicke-Korsakoff disease. I have lone paroxysmal a-fib. There's virtually a zero percent chance of having a stroke from an A-fib incident that lasts less than 48 hours. In other words, there's no way that the President of the USA could have had undetected A-fib for 2 days that resulted in a stroke. You're assuming he's smart enough to know the difference between his chest and his knee - a significant fact if he needs to describe unusual symptoms to his doctor. Since we know he's not that smart, your comment is moot. |
