In reply to the discussion: Sanders plans to release health records by end of year [View all]NurseJackie
(42,862 posts)26. I do not know. You'll have to ask someone else.
Why won't Joe release his medical records this year?
I do not know. So how much "before"?
Again, i do not know. But I'm flattered that you think I'd know the answers. I just can't help you with that.
What I can tell you is that Joe Biden isn't under a doctor's orders to "cut back" his campaigning, nor has he been hospitalized or sought emergency medical treatment twice recently. If he had, I'd be very interested in seeing his "medical records" as soon as possible too. But, as it is, there's really no sense of urgency around Joe Biden since he hasn't had a heart attack or stents for his clogged arteries and he hasn't had a fainting spell (or dizzy spell) and his doctor hasn't ordered him to cut-back.
Bernie is.
I think he should release them now. He's the only candidate who's recently had a heart attack, stents, and a "fainting spell" or "dizzy spell" (typically a symptom of afib... and considering his history of poor heart health and clogged arteries, it seems highly likely).
So... when was Biden's "brain surgery"? I hadn't heard about it, can you provide more information?
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Well, as long as everyone releases their health records before the year's end it should be OK...

Yes, everyone knows that Joe Biden had a brain aneurysm back in 1988, 31 years ago....

There's a sense of urgency around that candidate's health... we deserve to know the truth.

Correct, no other candidate has had two serious health episodes in the last few months.

It's strange that Joe won't commit to releasing his health records this year.

Yes... they all should. Especially the candidate who has had two "episodes" recently.

My question is also still not answered. And it's not a game, the medical records are important.

Biden's doctors disclosed he suffered from an irregular heartbeat as recently as 2006.

It's strange that Warren won't commit to releasing her health records this year.
