Trump could leave hospital on Monday, say doctors; NSA differs

By Arul Louis New York, Oct 4 : Confusion continued over the treatment of US President Donald Trump on Sunday when a specialist said that he could be released from the military hospital as early as Monday while his National Security Advisor said that he could stay there for “another period of time.” Trump had also had two short, temporary setbacks when he needed to be put on oxygen, his personal doctor Sean Conley disclosed at a Sunday morning briefing.
But he and other doctors gave an overall upbeat assessment of Trump’s condition.
Sean Dooley, a military pulmonary critical care specialist, said that Trump “has remained without fever, since Friday morning, his vital signs are stable, from a pulmonary standpoint” and is walking around without “complaining of shortness of breath, or other typical respiratory symptoms”.
A member of the medical team, Brian Garibaldi, a specialist from Johns Hopkins University, said: “If he continues to look and feel as well as he does today our hope is that we can plan for a discharge as early as tomorrow to the White House where he can continue his treatment course.” But earlier National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien told a CBS TV programme that although Trump feels “very well” and wants to return to the White House, “I think he’s going to stay at Walter Reed for at least another period of time.”
