Tests negative, Sen. John Fetterman leaves hospital

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman is out of a hospital in Washington after a two-day stay following a spell of lightheadedness that prompted the visit as he recovers from a stroke he suffered last year on the campaign trail. His office said Friday that Fetterman was discharged from George Washington University Hospital after tests found no evidence of a new stroke or a seizure. Fetterman checked himself in on Wednesday after feeling lightheaded during a Senate Democratic retreat. He continues to suffer the aftereffects of the stroke, in particular auditory processing disorder, which can render someone unable to speak fluidly and quickly process spoken conversation into meaning.
