No proof of this, just spitballin ideas.
I am trying to account for his going to Walter Reed at odd times, and for reasons he would HAVE to go to the hospital. Most things could be done at the WH and no one would be the wiser. I dont think that hyperbaric oxygen treatment is an approved thing for strokes, but they might do it anyway.
Does this seem like a reasonable guess? Anyone know if Walter Reed has a hyperbaric chamber?

(131,905 posts)It's used to get maximum oxygen to tissues that have been damaged by infection or injury, like diabetic foot ulcers or skin grafts - or unless he's been scuba diving in deep water and resurfaced too fast, which seems highly unlikely as well.

If he is getting the experimental fat jab from Lily, it may not be for weight loss. It COULD be for pulmonary hypertension. Apparently, this new drug has shown some promise in slowing the progression of pulmonary hypertension. And that disease maps reasonable well to other symptoms he's displaying.

(2,436 posts)My son (then 17) had a life-threatening strep infection and for a couple days, they had him on hyperbaric therapyuntil they discovered that his particular strep THRIVED on the extra oxygen. He ended up losing his leg to stop the infections progress.
I dont really see this as an option for stroke. No amount of oxygen could repair whats damaged in a stroke. A stroke victim can only attempt to retrain new areas of the brain to take up what the damaged parts can no longer do, and even then, youre unlikely to recover motor functions that were lost. My maternal grandpa had a couple strokes and whilst they didnt seem to affect his mind, he had progressive motor function failures and could barely shuffle with a cane at the end.
Shitler will only go downhill from here no matter what they try. Sadly, it wont be fast enough.

Maybe Trump is treated with dialysis because of bad kidneys?

(11,208 posts)father. Congestive heart failure was causing his ankles/lower legs to retain fluid like that, requiring repeat visits to the hospital to drain off the fluid. Then they would fill with fluid again and hed have to go back for more draining. When he reached that stage he was already within a year of death. Like I said Im guessing it, because it just looks so similar it could be that, but I could be wrong, of course.
