Trump releases his medical record

Washington: Donald Trump on Thursday released the results of his recent medical test, with his personal physician saying that the 70-year-old Republican presidential candidate is in “excellent physical health”.

“In summer, Trump is in excellent physical health,” Dr Harold N Bornstein said in a one-page medical report dated September 13, which was released to the press by his campaign.

Earlier on Thursday, the Democratic presidential candidate, 68- year-old Hillary Clinton released her updated medical record after a bout of pneumonia, with her doctor saying she is “fit to serve” as US President.

Trump, who is 6 foot 3 inches tall, weighs 107 kilograms, and his liver and thyroid functions are “all within the normal range,” the report said.

His vital statistics including blood and cholesterol are also normal, but he does take a lipid lowering agent (rosuvastatin) and a low dose aspiring, it added.

He does not use tobacco products or alcohol.
