Edward Klein writes for the Washington Times<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Mr. Obama and Ms. Jarrett have been so worried about Hillary\u2019s health that they recently offered to arrange a secret medical checkup for her at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.<\/p>\n

Hillary declined their offer because she feared a leak to the media would prove fatal to her presidential campaign. Instead, she has been secretly visiting the New York-Presbyterian Hospital, where she arrives through a private entrance out of public sight and where she can rely on her doctors not to speak to the media.
\nSources close to Hillary tell me that her doctors have discovered she suffers from arrhythmia (an abnormal heart beat) and a leaking heart valve. They have recommended that she consider having valve replacement surgery, but Hillary has refused because she does not want to risk the negative political fallout from stories about such a serious operation.
\nIn addition to the arrhythmia and leaking heart valve, Hillary suffers from chronic low blood pressure, insufficient blood flow, a tendency to form life-threatening blood clots, and troubling side effects from her medications.
\nHer doctors have prescribed Coumadin, a blood thinner, and a beta blocker to treat her condition. However, these medications make her drowsy and tired, lower her blood pressure, and have led to frequent bouts of light-headedness and fainting spells.
\nHillary has suffered at least five fainting spells that the public is aware of, including the most recent one at the 15th anniversary memorial service of 9\/11.
\nIn addition, there have been many other incidents of fainting that have been hidden from the public.
\nFor example, after her 11-hour testimony before the Trey Gowdy Benghazi committee, Hillary swooned as she walked to her waiting Secret Service SUV and had to be carried into the back seat by her aides.
\nAmong Hillary\u2019s friends, it is common knowledge that she suffers from tension headaches, sits with her feet elevated, nods off to sleep while studying her speeches, gets dizzy and has frequently stumbled and fallen at her home in Chappaqua. She asks her closest aide, Huma Abedin, to rub her shoulders and bring her cold compresses for her neck and forehead.
\n\u201cHuma always kneels down, whispers to her, rubs her shoulders, and comforts her,\u201d said one of Hillary\u2019s closest friends. \u201cHuma seems genuinely alarmed at her condition, and looks agonized as well.
\n\u201cHillary also has a masseuse on call to work on her legs, which give her almost constant pain,\u201d this friend continued. \u201cIt reminds me of what I read about Jack Kennedy\u2019s constant back problems and how they were always hidden from the public.
\n\u201cHillary\u2019s campaign people are well aware of her problem and are doing everything possible to make her schedule as easy as possible, but it\u2019s hard to run for president and not work hard and spend a lot of time on your feet and constantly get photographed.
\n\u201cHillary believes that for the most part the press has been very considerate, withholding the worst pictures of her, particularly the ones of her looking like she is in agony, or worse, simply confused. I\u2019m convinced that if it was up to Bill, he would have shut down the campaign a long time ago. But Hillary would rather die than do that. I think it is fair to say that the biggest issue behind the scenes with the campaign is Hillary\u2019s health.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
