Defense secretary Lloyd Austin is expected to resume his duties tomorrow after being hospitalized for a bladder issue, Drs John Maddox and Gregory Chesnut of Walter Reed medical center said in a new statement.
“Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III underwent non-surgical procedures under general anesthesia to address his bladder issue. We anticipate a successful recovery and will closely monitor him overnight,” the doctors said.
“A prolonged hospital stay is not anticipated. We anticipate the Secretary will be able to resume his normal duties tomorrow. The current bladder issue is not expected to change his anticipated full recovery. His cancer prognosis remains excellent.”
The Pentagon said yesterday that Austin had been admitted to the critical care unit of Walter Reed after showing “symptoms suggesting an emergent bladder issue”. His deputy, Kathleen Hicks, had briefly assumed his duties as he recovered.
