Title: When you thought he couldn't get any weirder:
Post by: Perd Hapley on November 11, 2014, 07:35:10 AM

He went and got weirder. He's saying he's had some pretty serious and strange health problems, but is now recovering.

So after reading the article, I am still unclear as to the clinical nature of his problem and the cure thereto.  I am often skeptical of someone with long-standing problems that have undergone a million-dollar workup by competent physicians but then is 'cured' by unconventional healthcare practitioners or means.  Having said that, odd and inexplicable things happen in healthcare every day.

I'm pretty sure he was diagnosed with being smarter than the rest of us.  So smart, in fact, that it was killing him.  And now, he was cured and will be able to channel those smarts into saving us all!

If that was a disease that people died from a lot politicians should be long dead.

http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/medical_examiner/2014/11/glenn_beck_says_he_has_adrenal_fatigue_that_s_not_a_real_medical_condition.html

So I am increasingly convinced his diagnosis and cure are essentially quackery.
