John McCain's medical Records

Republican White House hopeful John McCain has had no recurrence of skin cancer for six years, and has the health of a man younger than his 71 years, CBS News said Friday quoting medical records.

McCain's campaign was releasing more than 1,000 pages of the Arizona senator's medical history in a bid to lay to rest concerns that he is too old, or unhealthy to be president.

CBS said the records showed McCain had experienced no signs of melanoma since 2002. In 2000, McCain had surgery for skin cancer on his face, which left visible scarring down one side of his face.

McCain's doctor described him as "considerably younger than his chronological age based on his cardiovascular fitness," CBS reported.

He does have occasional dizzy spells when he stands up, but tests show the ailment is harmless, and he takes medicine to keep his cholesterol under control.

McCain would be, at 72 next January, the oldest US president ever inaugurated for a first term.

Cured?? Most doctors are very reluctant to use that word when talking of cancer. This guy seems to be out of touch with reality but, what else would we expect from fox news.

"McCain Releases Medical Records". Really? They made the records, more than 1000 pages, available for 3 hours for a group of doctors to review. No electronic devices allowed in the room, no photocopying. That's not releasing the records. Fox News covers for the campaign.
