NEW YORK\u00a0\u2013 Has\u00a0Hillary Clinton disappeared from the campaign trail because\u00a0her physicians have temporarily taken her off of drugs to treat Parkinson\u2019s disease?<\/p>\n
That\u2019s a question raised by Dr. Theodore \u201cTed\u201d Noel, a retired anesthesiologist in Orlando, Florida, with 36 years experience who has a background in critical-care medicine.<\/p>\n
Noel has produced new videos from recent Clinton appearances that he believes provides additional evidence to support his contention that Clinton is suffering from Parkinson\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n
\u201cIs Hillary off the campaign trail because her physicians have put her on a drug holiday<\/a>?\u201d Noel asks, noting she also stopped campaigning for a prolonged period\u00a0before the second debate.<\/p>\n \u201cA \u2018drug holiday\u2019 is often prescribed for Parkinson\u2019s disease patients,\u201d Noel explained to WND. \u201cThe problem is that Parkinson\u2019s patients need increased doses of their medication as the disease progresses.\u201d<\/p>\n A drug holiday, he said, would \u201callow her physicians to get her drug-free for a while, so she can be on lower doses when the drugs are restarted.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe needs to be able to come on stage appearing to walk and smile normally,\u201d Noel said.<\/p>\n WND has compiled a list of more than a dozen physicians<\/a> who have raised concerns about Clinton\u2019s health.<\/p>\n They include Dr. Daniel Kassicieh, D.O., a dual board-certified osteopathic neurologist, who has catalogued for WND a list of documented health problems Clinton has suffered.<\/p>\n Signs of Parkinson\u2019s<\/b><\/p>\n In Noel\u2019s videos, he points to what he believes are clear signs of Parkinson\u2019s disease in Clinton\u2019s physical movements.<\/p>\n \u201cShe demonstrates unusual eye movements called \u2018loss of vergence,\u2019 commonly known as \u2018eye-crossing,\u2019 and \u2018pill-rolling\u2019 tremors in her hands,\u201d Noel explained to WND in a telephone interview.<\/p>\n The term \u201cpill-rolling\u201d is derived from the motions a pharmacist makes to place a pill in a prescription bottle.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cTo prevent others from seeing the tremors, she often places her hands in positions Parkinson\u2019s patients commonly use to hide them,\u201d Noel explained<\/p>\n Noel made the new videos to show that in the first and second debates, Clinton displayed signs that led him to suspect she has Parkinson\u2019s disease, as\u00a0WND reported<\/a> Sept. 19.<\/p>\n First debate observations<\/b><\/p>\n After the first debate, Noel published on his website the first of thee new videos<\/a>, titled \u201cHillary\u2019s Debate Performance \u2013 Parkinson\u2019s Still on Display.\u201d<\/p>\n Noel begins the video suggesting that prior to the first debate, Hillary may have engaged in a drug holiday<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIn Parkinson\u2019s disease, the drug dosing is a problem,\u201d Noel explains on the video, demonstrating with his hands that the same dose of a drug given to Parkinson\u2019s disease patients loses efficacy over time. To achieve the same effect, increased doses of the drug must be taken.<\/p>\n \u201cHillary, if she is going to be out in public for a debate, needs her drugs to last for something like two-and-a-half hours,\u201d he continued. \u201cIf you stop taking your drugs for a period of time, and then restart them, the drugs will last quite a bit longer. Unfortunately, this is a controversial practice because it can have some serious consequences. But it seems like a realistic possibility, because most of the time in the debate Hillary was able to keep people from seeing any real signs.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n He commented on the way Clinton walked on stage at the start of the debate, with \u201cstrides too long, with too much arm swing and her shoulders rotating more than normal.\u201d<\/p>\n Noel speculated Hillary\u2019s entrance could have a Parkinson\u2019s trained gait.<\/p>\n \u201cParkinson\u2019s sufferers typically develop a short, shuffling gait as their disease gets worse,\u201d he commented. \u201cIt\u2019s been known for about 20 years that if these people are trained to walk to a metronome, they end up with a much better gait and are able to get around more easily. Hillary\u2019s entrance to me looked like she was walking with a metronome in her head.\u201d<\/p>\n Next, Noel focused on Hillary\u2019s hands during the debate, arguing that the News conference on plane after first debate<\/b><\/p>\n In second video Noel published on his website on Oct. 5<\/a>, titled \u201cNBC Lied to Cover Hillary\u2019s Neurological Problems,\u201d Noel argues NBC altered video of Clinton\u2019s impromptu press conference aboard her campaign airplane following the second debate with Donald Trump.<\/p>\n Noel demonstrates what he believes is NBC editing done to hide an instance in which Clinton\u2019s eyes crossed as she was answering press questions. Next, Noel runs the video in slow motion to show what he believes is evidence Clinton suffered a \u201cbrain freeze\u201d when reporters shouted questions, requiring her to shift her gaze off to the right in order to reset her mind and regain composure.<\/i><\/p>\n \u201cThe truth is in plain view,\u201d Noel comments at the end of his video. \u201cBut we probably wouldn\u2019t have seen the Parkinson\u2019s freeze if NBC News hadn\u2019t gone ahead and doctored their video. NBC News couldn\u2019t allow Clinton to be seen with eyes that do not move in convergence. That couldn\u2019t be allowed because it would point toward Parkinson\u2019s disease, and their hero can\u2019t have Parkinson\u2019s disease. So NBC News doctored their video and lied to America.\u201d<\/p>\n Evidence from the second debate<\/b><\/p>\n Noel produced a third video after the second debate<\/a>, titled \u201cHillary\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s Can\u2019t Hide \u2013 Even at the Debate.\u201d<\/p>\n At the start of the third video, Noel replays video of Hillary leaving the debate<\/p>\n The video shows Hillary clearly being assisted down a short flight of stairs by Bill Clinton supporting her right arm. When she reaches the bottom of the stairs, Noel utilizes slow motion to emphasize what looks like a Clinton \u201cfreeze,\u201d as she points at the security van. Noel believes it shows her \u201capparently unable to comprehend what she should do next.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n Next, Noel demonstrates in the video taken at the impromptu press conference aboard Clinton\u2019s campaign airplane following the second debate that Clinton\u2019s eyes did not always move in unison. Several times as her eyes moved right to left, her left crossed too far to the right.<\/p>\n Running video of the second debate, Noel demonstrates two of what he maintains are at least seven instances in which Clinton\u2019s eyes crossed during the debate.<\/p>\n \u2018Levodopa-induced dyskinesia\u2019<\/b><\/p>\n To explain this phenomenon, Noel cites a medical paper published by Jacqueline M. S. Winterkorn, Ph.D., M.D., titled \u201cNeuro-Ophthalmological Manifestations of Parkinson\u2019s Disease.\u201d<\/a> The paper accompanied a lecture to the North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society, NAMOS, in March 1999.<\/p>\n Noel suggests that Clinton withdrew from the campaign trail prior to the second debate because of a lack of physical stamina resulting from her ailments.<\/p>\n \u201cHillary evidently had to rest in preparation for the rigor of standing during a \u201cThe problem is that Hillary can\u2019t hide everything,\u201d Noel comments on the video. \u201cIn the course of the [second] debate there are a number of instances where Hillary\u2019s eyes cross. The problem is the incidents come very quickly and they go very quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n Noel tied his observations to medical explanations Winterkorn provided in her medical paper.<\/p>\n \u201cWinterkorn points out that in Parkinson\u2019s disease, the movement of eyes across to new targets, called \u2018saccades,\u2019 often is \u2018dysmetric,\u2019 meaning that the two eyes are different in their speed,\u201d Noel comments. \u201cBut if we add \u2018Levodopa-induced dyskinesia,\u2019 that is a side effect of taking the drug Levodopa for a long time and having a high level in the blood, what happens is that one eye will tend to outrace the other. And this is exactly what we have been seeing with Hillary Clinton.\u201d<\/p>\n Noel insists the eye movements fit a Parkinson\u2019s disease drug toxicity known in medical terminology as Parkinson\u2019s Disease Levodopa Induced Dyskinesia,<\/a> or PD-LID. He suggests the phenomenon suggests Clinton is experiencing serious neurological damage \u2013 a progressive problem he believes will only become more severe as Clinton\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s Disease advances.<\/p>\n In a blog post on American Thinker<\/a> Noel explained the significance.<\/p>\n \u201cIf Hillary Clinton merely has trouble moving, that would make her illness no more important than FDR\u2019s polio,\u201d he told WND.<\/p>\n \u201cBut Parkinson\u2019s disease commonly progresses to mental difficulties, List of documented health problems<\/strong><\/p>\n Meanwhile, Kassicieh also believes Clinton suffers from a neurological disorder that disqualifies her from the presidency.<\/p>\n A leading headache specialist who directs the Florida Headache and Movement Disorder Center in Sarasota, Florida, he has compiled for WND various videos and screenshots he believes make a compelling case that Clinton should release all her medical records. He believes she should also submit to a comprehensive medical examination from a qualified, independent team of medically-qualified professionals and make the results public.<\/p>\n Last month, WND reported<\/a> Kassicieh\u2019s suspicion, based on an examination of the available public record, that Clinton is suffering from a serious neurological disease that he believes could be post-concussion syndrome. He said Clinton appears to have brain damage causing her to suffer a serious and progressive memory disorder.<\/p>\n \u201cRonald Reagan had minor memory blips that no one thought was a serious problem,\u201d Kassicieh explained to WND. \u201cHe went on to develop full-blown Alzheimer\u2019s disease. The leader of the free world cannot be someone who is Early this week, WND published Kassicieh\u2019s findings that Clinton\u2019s health problems were first evident during a press conference on Whitewater dating back to April 22, 1994, and have continued through earlier this month when in response to the Judicial Watch written interrogatories authorized by U.S. Judge Emmet G. Sullivan, Clinton answered that she didn\u2019t recall 20 times.<\/p>\n \u201cHillary suffers from memory loss, lack of attention to detail, poor tolerance to confrontation, fatigue, exhaustion, lack of stamina, dizziness and gait unsteadiness, concentration problems and \u2018brain freezes\u2019 characterized by word finding difficulty,\u201d Kassicieh explained to WND.<\/p>\n Kassicieh catalogued for WND a list of documented health problems Clinton has suffered that include the following:<\/p>\n The following videos, selected by Kassicieh, are not presented in any particular order, nor was Kassicieh certain the health problems seen in thevarious videos would be related to the same issue. He emphasizes a diagnosis can be made only by the full and complete medical records, combined with a comprehensive medical evaluation performed by qualified medical specialists.<\/p>\n Coughing fits<\/b><\/p>\n A video captured Sept. 5 shows Clinton at a Labor Day campaign rally in Cleveland interrupted by a coughing spell, with vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine sitting on the stage in the background.<\/p>\n Hillary Clinton Coughing Attack in Cleveland:<\/i><\/p>\n

\n90-minute non-stop televised debate,\u201d he surmised. \u201cThe days off resting before a debate would have allowed Hillary to engage in another \u2018drug holiday\u2019 before the second debate, with the goal getting a more reliable and extended drug effect during the debate.<\/p>\n
