Joe Biden physical results: ‘President remains fit for duty’

No mention of Biden taking the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test like they forced Trump into and he passed.

Checkup finds Biden 'vigorous'; Harris briefly in power
WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden remains “healthy” and “vigorous” and fit for duty, but is showing some signs of aging, his doctor said Friday after the oldest president in American history underwent his first routine physical in office and — in a history-making moment — briefly transferred power to Vice President Kamala Harris while he underwent a colonoscopy.
Harris, the first woman, first Black person and first person of South Asian descent to be vice president, was — for one hour and 25 minutes — acting president while Biden was under anesthesia.
Over more than five hours Friday at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, the president underwent a battery of blood, physical, gastrointestinal, dental, vision and neurological examinations. Dr. Kevin O’Connor, who has been Biden’s primary care physician since 2009, wrote in a six-page memo released by the White House that Biden, who turns 79 on Saturday, “remains a healthy, vigorous, 78-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.”
O’Connor, however, revealed that he investigated Biden for increased instances of “throat clearing” during public remarks and a stiffening of his gait. O’Connor reported that Biden’s coughing was the result of gastrointestinal reflux and that the stiffened gait was the result of a new diagnosis of “mild peripheral neuropathy,” spinal arthritis and compensation for a broken foot sustained a year ago.
Interest in Biden’s health has been high ever since he declared his candidacy for the White House in 2019 and remains intense as speculation about a 2024 reelection bid swirls. The visit to the medical center in the Washington suburbs was for his first routine physical exam as president — and his first since December 2019.
As part of the screening, Biden underwent an “extremely detailed neurological exam” that ruled out stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, but caught the neuropathy, which is nerve damage in the hands and feet. O’Connor said the most common cause of the condition is diabetes, but Biden is not diabetic. Biden, he said, would soon try custom orthotics to improve his gait.
During the course of Biden's colonoscopy a “benign-appearing polyp” of about 3 millimeters was identified and removed and would be studied over the coming week. O’Connor said Biden has never had colon cancer.
Biden's reported body mass index classified him as slightly overweight, but his cholesterol was under control. Biden, O'Connor said, is prescribed the anticoagulant Eliquis, the statin Crestor and the seasonal allergy spray Dymista, and regularly takes the over-the-counter allergy pill Allegra and the antacid Pepcid.

Former President Donald Trump, 75, was sharply criticized for releasing only cursory details on his health while running and serving in the White House, including concealing the seriousness of his COVID-19 illness a month before the 2020 presidential election.

Uncontrolled bowel movements are PERFECTLY fine.
Everyone hear that ? Let'm rip. It's normal.

The colonoscopy flushed out that spoon Biden shoved up his arse after his nurse brought him the wrong flavored yogurt he gets every night.

Kevin O’ Connor is full of shite

Joe isn’t even fit to handle his own bowel movements

That does not rule out dementia.

I wouldn't leave Joe Biden alone to watch my dogs. The whole World knows; it's 'believe us or your lying eyes'.
One thing I'll give Biden, he's cementing his role in the historical record. Of course, the 'record' is written by who/whichever Group holds power.

Interesting omission given the widespread speculation.

No mention of dementia being ruled out eh? So the biggest question about his ability to do his job remains unanswered. Yeah, there is nothing wrong at all here folks. Just go back to watching the news

Why the need for the adjectives like "vigorous"?
Posted on 11/20/21 at 8:14 am to cajunangelle
The doctor was also heard saying 15 days to flatten the curve

I personally look forward to the press conference where the physician is berated by a gaggle of journos who challenge his medical opinion and accuse him of lying.

I think the trick was for them to overload with so many details that no one would dare to question dementia or Alzheimer's.

He’s a puppet. You don’t have to be healthy to be a puppet

The Bee should make an article about her getting a Presidential Painting.

The procedure called for installing a chynes buzzer up his butt. They buzz, he jumps

What the hell was he going to say? This is almost like Kim Jong-un's doctor having to talk about how the little fat fricker is the most athletic man in the world.
