Clinton has pneumonia, her doctor said Sunday, hours after the
Democratic nominee stumbled and exited a 9/11 commemoration ceremony
early.
Clinton was diagnosed
on Friday with pneumonia, and "was put on antibiotics, and advised to
rest and modify her schedule," Dr. Lisa Bardack said in a statement.
"While
at this morning's event, she became overheated and dehydrated. I have
just examined her and she is now re-hydrated and recovering nicely,"
said Bardack, chairman of internal medicine at the Mount Kisco Medical
Group.
Bardack attended to Clinton at her Chappaqua home Sunday.
Clinton's
health came into sharp focus Sunday as she appeared wobbly and stumbled
as Secret Service agents helped her into a van to exit a memorial
service marking the 15th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks.
The Democratic nominee traveled to her daughter's nearby apartment and
the campaign initially said she felt "overheated."
