Hillary Clinton gets a clean bill of health

Washington, Aug 1: As the US presidential race hots up, Hillary Clinton's personal physician released a statement saying she is physically fit to serve as president with health issues resulting from a 2012 health scare resolved. The health declaration came amid release of her tax returns from 2007 to 2014 and a separate State Department release of emails from Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State. "Clinton is a healthy 67-year old female whose current medical conditions include hypothyroidiam and seasonal pollen allergies," wrote Lisa Bardack, Clinton's doctor since 2001, in a Health Statement provided by Clinton's campaign. The health statement said the blood clot, also known as a thrombosis, that Clinton suffered between her brain and skull following a fainting spell and concussion in late 2012 is completely resolved. "She had follow-up testing in 2013, which revealed complete resolution of the effects of the concussion as well as total dissolution of the thrombosis. Clinton also tested negative for all clotting disorders," Bardack wrote.
