tRUMP's mind is rotting away fron Neural Syphilis from an untreated STD.

Trump is a notorious curb crawler.

This from 2017 when doctors first diagnosed him.

"Meanwhile, a debate is raging among mental health professionals about
Trump’s mental state, and whether it’s unethical of them to speculate
publicly about someone whom they haven’t examined (doing so violates
psychiatrists’ code of ethics, the relevant section of which is called
“the Goldwater rule” because of its association with a magazine survey of
psychiatrists about Barry Goldwater, the Republican presidential nominee,
in 1964). One online petition with nearly 24,000 signatures calls for
Trump’s removal because he “manifests a serious mental illness that
renders him psychologically incapable of competently discharging the
duties of President.” Another with 36,000 signatures declares that “Trump
appears unable to control his compulsion and displays characteristics of
all nine criteria to officially diagnose an individual with Narcissistic
Personality Disorder.”

Physicians like me have also taken notice of Trump’s bizarre, volatile
behavior. Given our experience, we can’t help but wonder if there’s a
medical diagnosis to be made. After all, many medical conditions exhibit
their first symptoms in the form of psychiatric issues and personality
changes. One condition in particular is notable for doing so:
Neurosyphilis.









Syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection, is sometimes referred to as
“The Great Imposter” because of its ability to mimic many other
conditions. It is commonly broken down into three stages. Primary syphilis
is the most widely recognized form of the disease. It is characterized by
the development of an ulcer, usually genital, a few weeks to a few months
after sexual contact with an infected person. If the ulcer is not noticed,
or not treated, it heals on its own, and the disease enters a dormant
phase. But during this time, the bacteria—a spirochete called Treponema
pallidum—spreads throughout the body without causing any symptoms.

A secondary stage of the disease is seen in some patients weeks or months
later. These patients may develop a variety of systemic symptoms, such as
rash, fever, and swollen glands. If not treated, the infection enters a
prolonged latent phase, which can last decades. During this time, it is
asymptomatic and it is not contagious. In some cases, this is followed by
a tertiary stage, which is the most serious and may involve any organ in
the body. It is seen 10 to 30 years after the initial infection, and is
best known for causing neurologic and neuropsychiatric disease:
Neurosyphilis.

The symptoms of neurosyphilis are protean, varying widely from one
individual to another. Commonly recognized symptoms include irritability,
loss of ability to concentrate, delusional thinking, and grandiosity.
Memory, insight, and judgment can become impaired. Insomnia may occur.
Visual problems may develop, including the inability of pupils to react to
the light. This, along other ocular pathology, can result in photophobia,
dimming of vision, and squinting. All of these things have been observed
in Trump. Dementia, headaches, gait disturbances. and patchy hair loss can
also be seen in later stages of syphilis.

Does Trump suffer from this condition? I cannot, of course, establish this
diagnosis from a distance. There’s a great deal of information I don’t
have access to, which could be critical in reaching the correct
conclusion. In Trump’s case, there are many diagnostic possibilities, and
we have very little background information because the slim medical
summary he released was vague, unverifiable, and possibly outdated.

On the other hand, every time I see a new patient, he or she comes to me
with incomplete information, or sometimes no information at all. Part of
my training is to ask the right questions to get a sense of what the
problem might be and make a list of possible diagnoses that could explain
the problem. This is called the “differential diagnosis.” From there,
additional questions, examinations, and tests are performed that narrow
down the list, usually to one unifying diagnosis.

Given the limited information available, neurosyphilis belongs in the
differential diagnosis. We know Trump was potentially exposed to syphilis
based on his own statements that he was sexually promiscuous in the 1980s,
a period when syphilis cases were rapidly increasing in the U.S. “I’ve
been so lucky in terms of that whole world,” he told Howard Stern in 1997,
referring to his dating life the decade prior. “It is a dangerous world
out there—it’s scary, like Vietnam. Sort of like the Vietnam era. It is my
personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider.”

If indeed Trump has neurosyphilis, he’d be in famous company. Al Capone
had it. So did composers Frederick Delius and Franz Schubert. Many others
were suspected of having it, including Hitler, Mussolini, and Ivan the
Terrible. What might enable us to eliminate Trump from this group? Two
simple blood tests, in combination, can determine whether a patient has
syphilis now or had it in the past. If both tests are negative, then he
doesn’t have neurosyphilis. If one or both tests are positive, further
evaluation, probably including a spinal tap, would be in order.

The importance—both to Trump and the nation—of establishing or ruling out
this diagnosis cannot be overstated, because this infection is treatable.
Without treatment, however, the disease is progressive: It can make for a
rather ugly end to one’s life. Whether Trump emerged unscathed from his
“personal Vietnam” is now a question that he should explore with his
personal physician."
