In 2004, three years after leaving the White House, he underwent emergency quadruple bypass surgery at Manhattan\u2019s Presbyterian Hospital to clear nearly complete arterial blockages. Doctors said he narrowly avoided a massive heart attack.<\/p>\n<p>The following year, he was hospitalized again for surgery to repair a collapsed lung, which physicians attributed to scar tissue from the bypass.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">Advertisement<\/p>\n<div id=\"as6078\" data-title=\"You Might Also Like\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Five years later, Clinton was rushed to a New York hospital with chest pains, where doctors inserted two stents to open a clogged artery. Afterward, the former president adopted a mostly vegan diet, lost weight, and credited the lifestyle change with giving him a \u201csecond chance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His health troubles, however, continued. In October 2021, he was hospitalized in California with a urological infection that developed into sepsis, requiring IV antibiotics before his release, The Post added.<\/p>\n<p>Clinton\u2019s latest health scare came last December, when he spent Christmas Eve at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital with a fever before being discharged the next day, according to his spokesperson.<\/p>\n<p>He was also spotted stumbling on a New York City sidewalk during a book tour stop with Hillary, at one point grabbing a pole for support as his left leg buckled.<\/p>\n<p>The recent sighting of a portable defibrillator is likely to fuel speculation about whether his condition is worsening. Such devices are used to monitor patients at high risk of cardiac arrest and deliver emergency shocks if needed.<\/p>\n<p>Though tabloid rumors have speculated about conditions such as Parkinson\u2019s, no credible outlet has confirmed any such diagnosis. Clinton\u2019s doctors and aides have limited their comments to his past cardiac and infection-related treatments.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-12\">\n<div data-delay=\"4000\" data-block=\"12\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Clintons have also remained in the political spotlight this summer for reasons unrelated to health. The House Oversight Committee earlier this month subpoenaed Bill and Hillary as part of its investigation into the government\u2019s handling of Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n<p>Neither has been accused of wrongdoing, but both are scheduled to testify this fall \u2014 Hillary on Oct. 9 and Bill on Oct. 14. In his 2024 memoir, Bill acknowledged flying on Epstein\u2019s jet but said he was unaware of the financier\u2019s crimes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe bottom line is, even though it allowed me to visit the work of my foundation, traveling on Epstein\u2019s plane was not worth the years of questioning afterward,\u201d Clinton wrote. \u201cI wish I had never met him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At 79, Bill Clinton is the third-oldest surviving president, trailing 82-year-old Joe Biden and George W. Bush, who is about seven weeks older than his predecessor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\">\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\" class=\"trc_related_container tbl-feed-container render-late-effect tbl-feed-frame-DIVIDER\" data-feed-container-num=\"1\" data-feed-main-container-id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\" data-parent-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails\" data-pub-lang=\"en\">\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails-sca1\" class=\"trc_related_container tbl-trecs-container trc_spotlight_widget trc_elastic trc_elastic_above-the-feed-premium-card-fp-delta pad-down above-the-feed-placement\" data-card-index=\"1\" data-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails | Injected 1\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails-pl1\" class=\"tbl-feed-card trc_related_container tbl-trecs-container trc_spotlight_widget trc_elastic trc_elastic_thumbs-feed-01-a-delta\" data-card-index=\"1\" data-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails | Card 1\">\n<div class=\"trc_rbox_container\">\n<div>\n<div id=\"trc_wrapper_991146537\" class=\"trc_rbox thumbs-feed-01-a-delta trc-content-sponsored\">\n<div id=\"outer_991146537\" class=\"trc_rbox_outer\">\n<div id=\"rbox-t2v\" class=\"trc_rbox_div trc_rbox_border_elm\">\n<div id=\"internal_trc_991146537\">\n<div class=\"videoCube trc_spotlight_item origin-default textItem thumbnail_top videoCube_1_child syndicatedItem trc-first-recommendation trc-spotlight-first-recommendation trc_excludable\" data-item-id=\"~~V1~~-8453847290591291016~~mMqYfchBvsaCDc1K-T5yQAYVse2kLQwAdhojl8q2KJ4e79Ni-eBnd8iQ4KmvvX-QCoTT_IvWFG7RTbSa_z-XXoydDCEnlcXh8xqixNlTYj3sOdFJ-QgI08DYZjVAUXcYC681c4BiC91StzbwfEHfpRoTeIrt5sx_ydDi9n2STzFAMnhVesYHQiOZp4ftik8_aRwqkk5HEEk9GDviFbOifI6ROsMGkMFSoVsudHTeIrQ\" data-item-title=\"Search for adwords pay per click company\" data-item-thumb=\"https:\/\/cdn.taboola.com\/libtrc\/static\/thumbnails\/0d686e599593ddb58ec6f1289a1adec8.jpg\" data-item-syndicated=\"true\">\n<div class=\"thumbBlock_holder\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Getty Images This article may contain commentary which reflects the author&#8217;s opinion.
