WASHINGTON (AP) - The blood clot in Vice President Dick Cheney's left leg is slowly getting smaller, according to doctors who checked his leg Tuesday and gave him an upbeat report, a spokeswoman said.
Cheney was taken to his doctor's office for an ultrasound of the clot, then returned to the White House to resume his normal schedule, said Megan McGinn, a spokeswoman for the vice president.
"The ultrasound was reassuring and showed that the clot is gradually resolving," she said. "His blood thinning medication was found to be in the desired range. The vice president's doctors advised him to continue the current course of treatment."
