Bill Clinton: Hillary Has Experienced Dehydration Problems ‘On More Than One Occasion’
In a phone interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper Monday night, Hillary Clinton seemed to walk back some of what her husband said about the dehydration spells, telling the host she thinks it has only happened twice. “I should have gotten some rest sooner, I probably would have been better off if I just pulled down my schedule Friday”.
On Sunday, her campaign answered questions about Clinton’s health and whereabouts with two short statements, both issued hours after she left the memorial in lower Manhattan. “We’re not going to be talking about Secretary Clinton, for sure”, Oz said. She was diagnosed with the lung infection on Friday. “I think it’s time he met the same disclosure I have for years”, Clinton said.
The puff piece in the October issue comes amid the Democratic presidential nominee’s recent health scares, including almost collapsing at a 9/11 memorial ceremony on Sunday and being diagnosed with pneumonia over the weekend.
She wrote: “I’m feeling fine and getting better”.
Clinton left Sunday’s ceremony and retreated to her daughter’s nearby apartment.
“I’m feeling great, I’m feeling great”, she said.
She headed to her daughter’s house in Manhattan before going to her suburban NY home, where she was examined by her physician.

Commenting on Clinton’s health, Donald Trump wished his rival a quick recovery.
Trump said on Monday he had a full physical exam last week, and his campaign said he’ll release those records later this week on an appearance on the “Dr. Oz Show” on Thursday. “I just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail”, he said in an interview with Fox News. “We know the least about Donald Trump of any candidate in recent American history”, she said, including his foreign investors and businesses. “I really, really, really want to elect Hillary Clinton”.
Trump’s running mate, Mike Pence, said the billionaire would also be releasing his medical records in the coming days. “What’s the cure for an unhealthy penchant for privacy that repeatedly creates unnecessary problems?”- has gone viral, and Ms. Clinton campaign managers said more information about her health will be made public.
The Democratic presidential nominee took Monday off from campaigning.
Trump supporters have tried to make the case that Clinton, 68, is physically unfit for the White House.
