In conclusion, Dr. Bardack wrote that “Mrs. Clinton has remained healthy and has not developed new medical conditions this year other than a sinus and ear infection and her recently diagnosed pneumonia”. “I tried to power through it but even I have to admit, some rest would do me good”, Clinton said during a rally in North Carolina. She is in “excellent mental health” and is completely okay to run for president, and, if elected, serve.

Donald Trump is surging in new battleground and national polls at a time when Hillary Clinton faces tough questions not only about her health but her sweeping criticism of her Republican opponent’s supporters.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign released a doctor’s note Tuesday excusing her absence from the campaign trail this past week.
Trump’s release of the letter comes as his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, is recovering from a bout of pneumonia that caused her to cancel events this week in California and Nevada.
Meanwhile, a New York Times/CBS News poll released Thursday has Clinton leading Trump 46 to 44, which is within the margin of error.
In keeping with Trump’s unusual approach to transparency, the billionaire businessman handed over a one-page summary of his recent exam to Dr Mehmet Oz while taping an episode of Oz’s show.
The full show is due to air Thursday.
Clinton hasn’t campaigned since she became dizzy and dehydrated during a 9/11 memorial service in NY on Sunday.
However, his campaign did not reveal what was disclosed to the programme.
The campaign said she had a chest scan on Friday that showed a “mild, non-contagious bacterial pneumonia”.
Clinton will spend her first day back on the trail campaigning in Greensboro, North Carolina, and speaking to a Hispanic group in Washington.
The Clinton campaign also released Tim Kaine’s medical history, reporting that, aside from some “inactive plantar fasciitis”, he is in tip top condition.
The letter details the treatment Clinton received in the days before and after Clinton diagnosis of pneumonia on Friday before she fell ill as she left a September 11 memorial.
She was asked to comment on former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s hacked emails that showed him saying: “Everything HRC touches, she kind of screws up with hubris”.

This is the first poll which was conducted after the 9/11 anniversary incident in which Clinton had to leave the NY memorial due to illness.
