Now, a report from a source that has previously also commented on the weak condition of the Russian President is alleging new symptoms which are impacting him negatively in many ways.

Weak and dizzy

The General SVR channel on Telegram has been regularly raising claims that Putin has various kinds of cancer and is also suffering from Parkinson's disease.

The channel is believed to be run by a former Russian intelligence officer who is also said to have sources inside the Kremlin.

The latest report on behalf of General SVR claims Putin is not feeling emotionally well due to the medications he has been receiving, New York Post reports. It writes on Twitter:

he has become withdrawn, laconic, practically does not receive anyone, and, in general, looks deeply concerned in recent days.
Putin is undergoing a course of treatment that uses medication, which, besides their therapeutic effects, cause weakness, dizziness, a lack of appetite, which does not affect the president’s psycho-emotional state in the best way.

Further in the same thread it continued:

The war exists in the head of one terminally ill man with a disturbed psyche who is trying to take as many people as... possible with him to a mythical "paradise".

Unconfirmed reports

Up to this point, various public appearances of the Russian President have provided ample grounds for analysts to speculate about his health.

A short while ago Valery Solovey, a Russian historian and political analyst, claimed that Putin is on a western treatment to fight his battle against cancer. As a result, he is allegedly suffering from side effects and has become increasingly paranoid, Mirror reports.

[Putin] is afraid of any infection, even one that is easily treated. He has a very weakened immune system. He is weakened by the aggressive [cancer] treatment, the drugs that he is forced to take.

Although numerous reports have surfaced throughout the past months about the health condition of the Russian President, all remain unconfirmed and the mystery continues.
