Can you speculate anything based on the President’s look before going to the hospital or the treatment he received.
No. He can be very sick and medicated to appear on a video to make him presentable. He may be lightly ill and that’s it. /1
Can you speculate about President’s condition based on the treatment he received.
No. What happens in medicine is often random and defies logic. The presentation is often misleading. Desire to fix things just in case often leads to do something outright harmful. /2
As far as the list of meds the President is on, most likely an abridged version. A typical American man of his age and look with regular access to a doctor, most likely is on meds to reduce cholesterol and blood pressure, maybe control heart rate/rhythm. /3
Haphazard food intake warrants something for (in) digestion thus famotidine. Not uncommon to have laxatives. High pressure lifestyle may indicate sleep aids and stimulants, and/or anti anxiety or antidepressants. A handful of random vitamins and supplements. /4
Ultimately it doesn’t matter how he felt or feels or might feel or what meds he is on. We will know what we need to know when it’s time. /5
