Following a three-hour physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, White House physician Capt. Sean Barbabella released a memo detailing the president’s metrics.<\/p>\n

Vitals:<\/strong> Resting heart rate is 73 bpm with a normal blood pressure of 105 systolic.<\/p>\n

Weight:<\/strong> The president weighs 238 pounds, marking a 14-pound weight gain.<\/p>\n

Medications:<\/strong> He takes two separate cholesterol-lowering drugs and daily aspirin for heart protection.<\/p>\n

Cognitive Testing:<\/strong> The report notes a perfect screening score for dementia. The president publicly reiterated he “aced” his latest requested cognitive test.<\/p>\n

Disclosed Conditions & Public Speculation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hand Bruising:<\/strong> Public appearances showing prominent bruising on the president’s right hand raised health concerns. The president and White House officials clarified the marks result from heavy handshaking combined with his use of blood-thinning aspirin. He acknowledged using makeup to conceal the bruising.<\/p>\n

Stamina & Fatigue:<\/strong> A prominent biography by New York Times journalists described the president’s health records as a “black box,” alleging noticeable “moments of fatigue” and erratic sleep habits during his second term. Critics regularly cite viral videos of apparent drowsiness during meetings to challenge the administration’s “perfect health” narrative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
