NYT KERRY ROBUST HEALTH: X-RAYS SHOW METAL SHRAPNEL FROM WAR; CANCER-FREE; HIV-... DEVELOPING...
Mentally, that's another story.
HIV???...OMG, Kerry has AIDS...LOL
I'd like to see that x-ray. If they blow it up, it probably says "uncle ben"
But what about the hoof he has stuck in his mouth? Also, his pathological inability to tell the truth. He could be suffering from "Clinton Syndrome." He needs another exam. This time by a veterinarian.
Shrapnel and Cancer Figure in Kerry's Journey to Health
Senator John Kerry, a lean athlete who is the picture of health as he skis, skates, cycles and windsurfs, is in robust condition, he and his doctors said in their first extended interviews discussing his medical history.
Mr. Kerry, 60, the Democratic presidential nominee, and his doctors discussed in great detail his health, particularly the surgery to remove his cancerous prostate gland in February 2003. It was one of two operations that disrupted his campaign. The second repaired a painful shoulder injury last March.
Mr. Kerry could become the first "cancer survivor" to be elected president, but he rejected the term as creating an unfair stigma. He is free of any vestiges of the cancer and characterized it as a nonissue in an interview in Las Vegas on Sept. 16. "I am cured," he said. "I am cancer-free, and the percentages of me being cancer-free 10 years from now are about as good as they get."
Mr. Kerry's doctors said they had told him that he was cured. They based their optimism on an array of tests and concluded that he had a less than 3 percent chance of a recurrence in the next nine years. Even if the cancer came back, it could be treated without seriously interfering with presidential duties, Mr. Kerry's doctors and experts said.
"The likelihood that he is going to have a significant problem with this cancer is infinitesimally small," said Dr. Patrick C. Walsh, the Johns Hopkins University urologist who performed the operation. The five-year death rate for the kind of prostate cancer that Mr. Kerry developed is virtually zero.

I'd like to know how he managed to get a MRI when he had his shoulder 'injury' back in the spring while he had that scrap iron in his leg.
Yeah and what about the stick up his clymer? Does that show on the Xray?
Did he recently inflict this in his head?
X-RAYS SHOW METAL SHRAPNEL
Mayeb that explains his illogical flip flopping around!
LOL ya think Drudge kinda had fun with this headline?
LOL...yeah, long-grain or converted?
Maybe it's the metal plate.
Medical records done, now on to those military records.
I'd like to see his psychological records.
What's Kerry hiding?
Took the words right out of my mouth, he is mental.
The Old Gay Lady strikes again.
This is so typical of sKerry.
Instead of his full and complete military records we get a 'band of brothers'.
Now instead of his full and complete medical history, we get a 'band of doctors'.
sigh
