Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was cleared by the Capitol’s attending physician to return to his normal schedule, a note shared by McConnell’s office Thursday shows.
“After evaluating yesterday’s incident, I have informed Leader McConnell that he is medically clear to continue with his schedule as planned,” Attending Physician Brian Monahan wrote. “Occasional lightheadedness is not uncommon in concussion recovery and can also be expected as a result of dehydration.”
Monahan said he consulted with both McConnell and his neurology team.
