Title: Get yer faintin' bronchitis here, folks!! It's a cotton-pickin' epidemic!!

This is why I browse the DUmp.  The notion that they can somehow prop up their sickly candidate by regurgitating stupid stories like this inside of an echo chamber is both hilarious and intriguing.  If you lived exclusively at the DUmp, you'd think there is a fainting epidemic sweeping the country.  Be prepared for a surprise, then.  Keep reading to discover that this really IS an EPIDEMIC, the likes that a DUmp denizen has never seen the likes of.  Oh, LAWDY!!

I've got bronchitis and for several days, I felt like fainting

Until the meds kicked in, I felt like fainting every time I got up. It was just awful.
I don't know how Hillary even managed to attend the 9/11 event and not totally collapse.

I've got a pretty nasty sudden strain of this stuff. Ironically it came on a few days after 9/11. I kept wondering if I was getting some "weird Hillary sympathy syndrome". My husband dragged me to the doc on Saturday and the doc could hear it in my lungs right away. He thought maybe it was pneumonia but it was just bronchitis. I'm getting the treatment: steroids, antibiotics and albutirol inhaler.

I've had bronchitis and pneumonia many times, but this is the first time that it constantly made me feel like fainting.

Oh well, thought I would share because it shows that Hillary is quite a trooper!!

And on to the rest of the Fainting DUmmies who queue up to share their stories of exasperating fainting tribulation:

1. I'm getting over a bad cold with no lung congestion

But Friday when I went shopping I got so lightheaded I had to cut my shopping short. I honestly thought I could pass out, was seeing spots in front of my eyes and blackness at the edges of my vision.

My husband took me to a restaurant where we sat down, drank a bunch of water, had a nice dinner and rested for a while. Instead of doing the other things we had planned one, we came home and I took a three hour nap.

Hope you feel better soon!

5. It also seems an unlikely time of year for this stuff...

At least for me. I'm in South Texas and if I catch anything, it's almost always Nov-Feb.

Hope your cold goes away soon.

Shut up, you!!!  Where is MIRT???  We've got a doubter over here!

2. Had a terrible case of bronchitis a couple years ago,

and ended up hauling myself to urgent care because I was so dizzy and had trouble breathing; I felt like absolute crap for weeks. So I have to hand it to Hillary for trying to keep her busy schedule. I don't think I could have done it.

4. Yep.

Been fighting something for almost two weeks now. It ain't fun.

Get off the floor, DUmmie.  You don't know how to play this game.  You don't actually have to faint to be a part of the crowd.

7. If that continues I'd have your O2 sat. checked.

You may need some supplemental for a few days. Take it easy. Your body needs you to rest.

11. They checked the O2 sat. in the office.

I didn't ask what it was. But, I was kinda wondering about that.

I think it is ironic that Hillary has a common infection, she bravely goes to an event, she stumbles, the world makes it seem like it is the most awful thing. I hope most voters will realize that feeling faint is a side effect of a common infection.

What about coughing for months on end?  Testing for neurological problems with an undercover nurse?  All part of the common infection, too? 





And here we are with a DUmmie concluding that the fainting really IS an epidemic.  No, really:

8. I had the same thought about Hillary. Some nasty virus is going around like crazy.

My Dad and sister in NC spent the entire month of August fighting it off.
My son and his girlfriend (much younger) were sick for two weeks in August.
My husband returned to teaching the August 22, and by August 30 was feeling really lightheaded, nauseous and sick, and he NEVER gets sick. Ended up barely moving for a week, and he STILL has a runny nose and chest congestion.

It hit me with a sore throat on 9/4 and 9/5, then massive head congestion that NOTHING would relieve, so no sleep, gradually worked its way to my chest. From the 7th thru the 18th, just walking from one end of the house to the other (a very small 1200 sq ft rancher) was enough to make me collapse and need to lie down. It's like a perpetual flu without the aching-to-the-bone feeling, completely limp. I do have asthma, but this is the first time since being diagnosed with that 15 years ago that I've had difficulties at all. This Wednesday will be my third visit to the doctor. Saturday, 11 days in to being a waste of space, I got an antibiotic and am finally recovering, but still not up to full power; maybe at 40%.

Everyone in my doctor's office had it as of 9/6, even my doctor.

It began to feel like I'd never improve; like this was a perpetual war between the virus and my body, a stalemate, and neither could win out. Never experienced anything like this in almost 61 years.



At the DU right now:

I know, right Carl?  They're bleating the same shit at each other PLUS telling each other sick stories to garner attention (they're being ignored), and they probably think they're campaigning hard as Hillary surrogates.

In what passes as their minds that is it.
As if normal people reading their filth site are impressed with them,between the laughter and revulsion they are the best campaign team Trump could have.

They'd be trying to outdo each other with stories of dick drizzle and cottage cheese in embarassing places.

     "Hillary shit her pants on live TV? Why, I must shit myself a couple times a day! I've got a couple of lumps of coal in my shorts as I write this. What about you guys?"

     "Same here....I'm good for a pants-crapping every couple of days. Pretty normal."

     "Yup, big drawer-loafer here. How Hillary does it and stays on message, I'll never know."

I have suspected right along that after a nasty coughing fit she probably has to go into the shop for a depends change.  "Ok boys get the talcum powder and depends team ready, "TurkeyNeck1" is coming in wet!!"   :rotf:  Also explains the fashion statement she makes.   :o :o

Every time that I get a cold it turns to bronchitis. During those times I have to use an albuterol inhaler, and the only cough syrup that will help is that thick yellow stuff that costs an arm and a leg. In all of the times that I've had bronchitis, which is once to twice per year for 20+ years, I have never stumbled around like I was drunk or been anywhere near fainting. There have been several times that I couldn't walk very far without being out of breath, but I never once have been Hilaryistic.

Hell, I've sung in my choir with bronchitis and pneumonia before.  It really forced me to concentrate on the tone and volume of the sound I was producing.  I didn't give it to anyone, either.

That sounds like a challenge!

Once, I had bronchitis and intestinal flu at the same time. I was afraid to cough.

I don't know how Hillary even managed to attend the 9/11 event and not totally collapse.
They had her propped up against one of those vehicle barricades before they dragged her unresponsive form to the van and tossing her in.

I swear, by the time this election is finished, Hillary will not able to walk on her own and will need people to move her legs and to keep her upright. The DUmmies will then be boasting about how everyone they know walks that way now.

Are the DUmmies also experiencing their eyes rolling around independent of each other?  Cause that's happening too, and people are talking.

Had some lung thing once that actually brought me to my knees. Felt like somebody punched me in the back. That winter air probably had something to do with it
