Fetterman Released From Hospital After Sustaining Minor Face Injuries in Fall.
Senator John Fetterman has been discharged from the hospital after suffering minor facial injuries in a fall, according to his office. The Pennsylvania Democrat posted on social media that he had received 20 stitches and was now back home with his wife, Gisele Fetterman, and their children.
Fetterman's office revealed that he fell while feeling lightheaded due to a ventricular fibrillation flare-up. However, in his post announcing his release, the senator did not address this specific issue.
The fall is the latest incident in Fetterman's health history, following a stroke during his Senate campaign in 2022 and an earlier hospitalization for lightheadedness in 2023. The senator has been open about his mental health journey, stating that speaking with a therapist had a profound impact on his life after the stroke.
As he recovers at home, Fetterman's office expressed gratitude towards the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for providing him with "incredible medical care."
