Ms Clinton received a 10-day course of antibiotics, and since Sunday has rested at her home in Chappaqua, New York, where she ‘continues to improve, ‘ Dr Bardack’s letter said.
The presidential candidate was seen stumbling as she tried to get into her vehicle at an event on the weekend because she was suffering from fatigue and a low-grade fever.

In a radio interview Thursday morning, Clinton said she plans to release additional medical information “very shortly”.

She had a normal mammogram and breast ultrasound and shows no signs of developing heart disease, which runs in her family.
