Scioli hospitalized again with renal colic

Buenos Aires Province Governor Daniel Scioli was urgently admitted to a private clinic in Tandil today, suffering from renal colic. Scioli was alongside colleagues on La Marocha estancia when he suddenly began experiencing strong intestinal pains.

Accompanied by his personal doctor, Alfredo Cahe and two security guards, Scioli was admitted to Peace Policlinic shortly after midday 12pm and was subjected to several tests and given pain medication.

As he left the clinic, Scioli said he was subjected to an x ray but insisted “I’m fine. This is a simple matter. Basically I wanted to have a routinary X-ray taken. I had kidney stones, which are very painful.”

Despite his condition Scioli was able to attend a beach football match against City Mayor Mauricio Macri in Mar del Plata for charity.
