WASHINGTON, D.C.- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been hospitalized with a blood clot in her head near her brain following a concussion she got after a faint spell last month.
Doctors said that it did not result in a stroke or a neurological problem.
A former U.S. senator representing New York who lost the Democratic primary in 2008 to current president Barack Obama and the wife of former president Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, 65, is the most admired woman in the world by some polls.
Doctors for the nation's highest ranking female federal official and the most prominent member of the president's cabinet said the blood clot was found following a routine MRI and that Secretary of State Clinton, who is being treated with blood thinners, will likely make a full recovery with release from the hospital shortly. (Editor's update: Mrs. Clinton has since been discharged from the hospital, White House press officials announced).
Hillary Clinton is stepping down as secretary of state after four years in the job with Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry nominated by the president to replace her.

CLEVELAND,Ohio- Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson (pictured) is poised to name a replacement for press secretary Andrea V. Taylor (pictured), who is resigning from the post she has held since 2007, effective Jan 1, to return to her hometown of Detroit to work in the private sector, a spokesperson for the mayor told reporters.
The mayor is at the end of a second four-year-term and has said that he will seek reelection next year. He has not publicly named a replacement for Taylor, who is Black, though he has no Blacks in the appointed positions of law director, safety director, chief of police, chief prosecutor, EMS commissioner, chief of staff and CEO of the majority Black and impoverished Cleveland Municipal School District.
Jackson,66, is the third Black mayor of the largely Black major metropolitan city of Cleveland, which has roughly 400,000 people, a 2010 U.S. Census Report reveals.
