The public has not provided a detailed look at Trump’s health since 2018 and, during the 2024 presidential campaign, he did not provide any details about his health despite numerous promises to do so.
The White House Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, told journalists on Friday that the president’s doctor will provide “an update on the report in the transparency effort,” adding: “as many results as possible” and “as soon as we can.”
The summary of traditionally provided physicists is a narrative of the physical aptitude that the patient allows to be shared. It has never been a complete transparent launch of medical records.
What revealed Trump’s last official presidential check -up
In the January 2018 evaluation, Trump seemed to be in an “excellent” cardiovascular form for his age, according to the then doctor of the House of Representatives, Dr. Ronny Jackson, who administered the physical exam of almost four hours of Trump at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
The president’s medical problems were limited to high cholesterol, rosacea (a benign skin disease) and were considered “overweight”, measured by the body mass index (BMI).
Trump’s LDL cholesterol level was 143 and the total cholesterol level was 223, higher than the recommended total of 200. LDL cholesterol, in particular, is significantly higher than the recommended level of 100.

Its BMI, or body mass index, is calculated in 29.9, using the calculator of the National Health Institutes, which is only shy of the obesity classification, which begins with a score of 30.
The 2018 report said the president takes a drug that reduces cholesterol called Rosuvastatin, and because his cholesterol level was a bit high, Jackson increased the dose.
Trump was also taking finasteride for male pattern hair loss. This medicine can also be used to treat higher dose prostate problems.
Trump also takes aspirin daily to prevent heart disease, a multivitamin and apply a cream called ivermectin, as necessary, to treat the condition of the pinkish skin.
At Trump’s instances, his doctor performed a brief detection test called Montreal cognitive evaluation. Jackson said Trump had a perfect 30/30 score.
COVID hospitalization
In October 2020, Trump was hospitalized after hiring COVID-19. Then, the White House Cabinet Chief Mark Meadows said Trump had a fever and that his blood oxygen level had decreased rapidly.
Sources with knowledge of the situation told ABC News that Trump was having problems breathing and received supplementary oxygen.
The doctors gave Trump an experimental course of monoclonal and steroid antibodies to treat him and returned to the White House after three days.
Trump Post 1st Term Health
In addition to Jackson’s letters, the most recent health accounting of Trump was a three -paragraph letter of his personal doctor, Bruce Aronwald of Morristown Medical Group, in which the doctor wrote that Trump’s general health is excellent. “
“His physical exams were within the normal range and his cognitive exams were exceptional,” Aronwald wrote. “In addition, its most recent extensive laboratory analysis remains within normal limits and was even more favorable than previous tests in some of the most significant parameters, most likely secondary to weight reduction.”
The doctor also explained that Trump cardiovascular studies were “all normal” and that cancer detection tests were “all negative”, claiming that Trump had lost weight through “an improved diet and continued daily physical activity.”

Trump’s former White House doctor and current Texas Republican representative, Ronny Jackson, published a letter claiming that he had personally reviewed Trump’s medical records of the Butler Memorial Hospital, which Jackson said he showed that the former president was treated by a “gunshot wound in the right ear.”
Jackson also confirmed that Trump underwent a computed tomography of caution while in Butler.
Trump’s campaign, however, would not launch the records that Jackson said he had reviewed.
Trump shared another letter from Jackson, detailing the injury to Trump’s ear and his healing process, claiming that he is “well” and recovering “as expected.”
