From politico:
Bernie Sanders is “in overall very good health,” the attending Senate physician said in a letter released Thursday summarizing the Vermont senator’s medical evaluation.
“You are in overall very good health and active in your professional work, and recreational lifestyle without limitation,” Senate attending physician Dr. Brian P. Monahan wrote in a letter dated Jan. 20.
He has undergone surgeries to “repair left and right side inguinal hernias,” according to the report, and “a right true vocal cord cyst excision.” He also had an elective outpatient hernia repair procedure done late November, after his last examination.
Dr Monahan goes on to say that Sanders has no history of cardiovascular disease, and quite a bit more, none of it bad. The link in that blockquote takes you to the actual letter.
About what was expected, I should think. He is after all a responsible and active man who is 74 “going on 75”, and to expect him to have no health problems at all would be silly. It looks like he has kept up on whatever problems have arisen, and he’s seemingly as healthy as can be asked for.
But I’m very glad he released these all the same. Americans have every right to know what health concerns their President has, and it’s good to know that President Bernie will be just fine.
