Birolini said Bolsonaro has a cough since last week. Today, he performed a chest and abdomen tomography, after also feeling stomach indisposition.
“He probably had viral pneumonia, was a lot of cough last week. Let’s give him a few days for him to take,” Birolini told a news conference on Saturday.
The doctor also said that the former president is leaving the hospital with a blood pressure monitor after presenting episodes of hypertension. Monitoring will be performed for the next 24 hours.
Upon leaving the hospital, Bolsonaro said he feels “kind of dizzy, but well.” The former Mandanician also highlighted the impact of age on his health: “Age weighs a lot on us, and there have been seven surgeries and I hope it is the last.”
The former president referred to a 12-hour surgery held in April, due to a case of intestinal obstruction.
Canceled Agenda in Goiás
Yesterday (20), former executive chief canceled an agenda in Anápolis, in the interior of Goiás, after being unwell.
Last Thursday (19), when he participated in a ceremony in the City Council of Aparecida de Goiânia. At the time, he was honored with the title of Citizen Aparecidense and during the speech, the former president said he was not well.
“I’m 70 years old, recovering the energies here, but I will try to say something to you,” he began. In the midst of speech, among many sobs, he curled and then explained: “Sorry, I am very bad, vomiting ten times a day, maybe the 11th soon.”
This morning he commented on the episodes of vomiting, saying it was a “rare thing.”
“A rare thing, no one can identify, I had years ago this same problem. It’s a crisis that lasts sometimes 24 hours and even a week of sob.
The former president arrived at DF Star at 7:15 am and performed blood and tomography tests. He left the hospital around 11:30 am.
