Doctors Say President Trump Could Be Discharged On Monday, Health Improving

“Since we spoke last, the president has continued to improve. As with any illness, there are frequent ups and downs over the course,” Sean Conley, his physician said.

US President Donald Trump’s doctors stated on Sunday that he has “continued to improve” and he could be discharged as early as Monday.

His oxygen levels had dropped twice briefly in recent days, his medical team said, adding that he is being treated with steroids. The team gave an upbeat assessment of the 74-year-old president’s health and outlook.

“Since we spoke last, the president has continued to improve. As with any illness, there are frequent ups and downs over the course,” Sean Conley, his physician said.

The president was flown to Walter Reed military medical centre on Friday after a “rapid progression” of his illness, with his oxygen levels dropping worryingly low, Conlay said.

Before being admitted, he received supplementary oxygen at the White House.

The president had been “up and around” and was feeling well, Brian Garibaldi, another of Trump’s doctors, said.

“Our plan for today is to have him eat and drink, be up out of bed as much as possible, to be mobile,” Garibaldi added.

“And, if he continues to look and feel as well as he does today, our hope is that we can plan a discharge as early as tomorrow to the White House where he can continue his treatment course.”

On Saturday, White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows had said that Trump’s health had left the doctors “very concerned” but that he had improved and there was never a risk he would have to hand over power.
