Hillary Clinton has admitted herself into New York Presbyterian Hospital
with a blood clot, so Philippe Reines, deputy assistant secretary of
state, confirms. Doctors found the blood clot when the Secretary of
State was undergoing a follow-up exam related to a concussion she
sustained earlier this month.
"In the course of a follow-up exam today, Secretary Clinton's doctors
discovered a blood clot had formed, stemming from the concussion she
sustained several weeks ago," Reines says Sunday, December 30. "She is
being treated with anti-coagulants and is at NewYork-Presbyterian
Hospital so that they can monitor the medication over the next 48
hours."
Reines further states that "doctors will continue to assess her
condition, including other issues associated with her concussion" and
"they will determine if any further action is required." The
spokesperson, however, doesn't mention where the clot was discovered.
Mrs. Clinton was previously forced to cancel a trip to North Africa and
the Middle East as she suffered a stomach virus. While recovering at
home, she fainted due to dehydration which then caused the concussion.
