Buenos Aires, November 11 (RHC-Mercopress) -- Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner has been discharged from Otamendi Hospital in Buenos Aires, where she had been admitted a week ago to be treated for sigmoiditis, an infection of the colon.
The head of state is now resting at Olivos Presidential Palace, where she is to remain for the next 10 days, following medical advice, according to a press release from the Presidential Medical Unit.
Cristina Fernandez was discharged given the good progress she has shown the past week, according to the release signed by doctors Marcelo Ballesteros and Daniel Fernandez.
In Olivos, the president will continue to take antibiotics and to follow a special diet and rest, with any travel counter-indicated for ten days.
