It's wasn't any "urgent or acute issues" that sent President Donald Trump to the hospital over the weekend, the White House physician said Monday. It was for a routine interim checkup, he said, echoing comments from the president and his team.
The disclosure came amid speculation surrounding Trump’s visit Sunday to Walter Reed Medical Center, which was not announced ahead of time.
Unlike the president’s previous two physicals, which came with advance notice and were included on his public schedule, Sunday’s visit was announced only in a tweet. Trump said he’d begun “phase one” of his yearly physical — though his last physical was in February.

I'm 75 and my annual is boring.....Medicare and that's only about 15 minutes.
In fact the joke is that I had more thorough exms when we played doctor as children.
And so I don't even go...and IIRC, only about 18% of Medicare seniors go for this farcical physical.....called a wellcare visit.
I have a scale, do my BP at the pharmacy, go to an eye doctor annually and go to the doctor if I'm sick.
What about labs?
Are your numbers all ok?
Why the hospital? Cuz that’s where Presidents go for their Physical.
His last physical was in January....not February.
I'm 5'4", 114 lb.....bp 65/115 and on "0" meds. We have good genes in my family. Very lucky.
Whoops...115/65
Democrat media saddened, deeply saddened Trump didn’t keel over and bite the dust. Oh well.
Actually I was referring to Bill. I always figured there STD’s and god knows what else they were hiding.
He had a boner that lasted more than 4 hours bfd
So the mind is a bit suspect oh well
I’ve been up and working for 16 hours. :-)
“There’s NO SUCH A THING as a “presidential food taster”
Hey, thanks. Now I’m going to have to take that off of my resume.
The food taster is the Secret Service.
I happen to know that at least in the 1963 the secret service did have someone who would taste test food for the president. my source is my substitute teacher when I was in high school. he was on the protection detail for john Kennedys children when he was a member of the secret service. I asked him about this when I was in high school and he was substituting for my history class. he told me there was someone who tasted the food for the president. he was very tight lipped about most things he did when he was on the white house protective detail but did answer a few Questions like the one I asked.
Good one!
That’s not all that doesn’t make sense. Everything needed for the President’s physical is available where he usually gets it, right by the White House.
We aren’t getting the full story, and that may be because security concerns may be involved. The fact that security concerns may be involved does worry me a bit.
By the way, I’ve never seen “Comment 1” removed from a thread, that’s a first. We don’t know who put up this thread.

“Why the hospital?”
Becuz that’s where the Presidents always go.
Lived in the DC area for the last 30 years and have volunteered at WR and BN for the past 10 years.
It’s what they do.
Right who cares, just another example of double standards.
