John Fetterman shows off 20 stitches after hospital discharge following 'ventricular fibrillation flare-up'

Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania revealed that he received 20 stitches following a fall near his home two days ago, prompted by what his office described as a flare-up stemming from a cardiac-related issue.

The senator appeared to be in good spirits as he shared a photo of his injuries with a smile Saturday afternoon in a social media post.

His spokesperson previously revealed that the Democratic senator had a ventricular fibrillation flare-up, which caused him to feel lightheaded and fall to the ground.

Fetterman, 56, said that he had been discharged Saturday from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and was happy to be home with his wife and children.

which I am on as well, so to some extent it likely looks worse than it was but still it seemed pretty substantial.
