1. Not good...

You are in my thoughts, Secretary Clinton...

[Mass]

4. They were actually saying it was good news, as it is not in the brain.

But still good luck to her.

11. Yes not good

No blood clot is good no matter where it is.
DVT surviver here
Week in the hospital, took coumadin for months afterwards.

16. Madokie, I'm glad you're doing well.

A DVT was what ultimately killed my stepmother. They had her on Coumadin but the dose apparently wasn't right and she suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke not long afterwards. Watch your dosage carefully if you're still taking it.

18. I'm off the coumadin

They almost let me bleed to death internally before they took me off though. Well I say almost, let me tell you what happened. I was remodeling one of our bathrooms and a piece of drywall that was maybe 2 ft by 4 ft tipped out and bumped me on the side of the face and immediately I started bleeding. The blood was coming out of the pores of my skin and not because of a scrape of anything, just because of a light tap.

2. That sounds bad...

5. This is why falling and hitting your head is dangerous.

[JaneyVee]

7. Exactly. ALL head injuries should be taken very seriously, even if someone "feels fine".

6. not good, but she's expected to make a full recovery nt

[spin]

10. At least that is positive. (n/t)

[Control-Z]

8. Noooo!

Can they really treat something like that in 48 hours?

I've been far more worried about Secretary Clinton today than the fiscal fiasco.

[Baitball Blogger]

9. No offense,

but your title sucks.

[malaise]

12. It's good news

Even better is that they discovered it before she had a stroke - get well Hillary!!

[CTyankee]

13. Oy...

my gawd...oy...

[Barack_America]

14. Yikes. That's much more serious than I had feared.

I'm glad she's getting good medical attention, those types of brain bleeds can be very dangerous.

[Blue_In_AK]

15. Oh, this isn't good.

I'm glad she's got the best medical care.

[smirkymonkey]

17. Sending you well wishes Hillary.

I hope she recovers soon.

[Glimmer of Hope]

19. Damn. Get better Hillary!

[DonCoquixote]

20. I may have had my arguments

against Hill, but I do hope she recovers.

[X_Digger]

21. Whew! That is actually better news than was being talked about. n/t

[Boomerproud]

22. Wolf Blitzer seemed genuinely angry that the location of the clot

hadn't been given until now-leading to nothing but speculation. I don't understand the lack of information myself-and I am no fan of Wolf Blitzer.

That being said-best wishes Madame Secretary.

23. Report on msnbc now: this is not subdural hematoma

in a vein outside the brain, rare complication with concussions..
