Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been admitted to New York-Presbyterian Hospital for treatment of a blood clot following a recent concussion.
Spokesman Philippe Reines indicates that the head of the State Department visited her doctor Sunday for a follow-up exam and it was during this office visit that a blood clot was discovered.
Clinton, who recently told Barbara Walters that she was exhausted from four years of constant international travel, has been placed on anti-coagulant medications and will be monitored in the hospital for the next 48 hours.
According to Reines, doctors will continue to assess Clinton’s condition, “including other issues associated with her concussion.”
