Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton was hospitalized over the weekend with a very serious and life-threatening condition–cerebral venous thrombosis. After suffering a concussion and stomach virus earlier in December, doctors discovered a clot and the condition is a treatable and under-recognized cause of a benign intracranial hypertension syndrome, and may also cause focal signs, seizures, and depression of consciousness.
Hopefully this will bring more awareness to IIH, we can only hope!
