Governor Paterson Hospitalized

New York Governor David Paterson has been taken to a Manhattan hospital after experiencing migraine-like symptoms. Paterson's office said in a statement that he asked to be brought to The Mount Sinai Medical Center for an evaluation. The office says all preliminary tests were normal and that Paterson was resting comfortably. He is still awaiting further tests. Last July, when he was lieutenant governor, Paterson fainted on an airplane in Buffalo, and was later given a clean bill of health after a heart test at Erie County Medical Center. In April 2006, when he was state Senate Minority Leader, Paterson was hospitalized for almost 12 hours after complaining of chest pains. The tests came back normal. The legally blind Paterson is known as an athlete who plays basketball recreationally and ran the New York City marathon.
