Lauren Boebert diagnosed with May-Thurner syndrome after being treated for 'acute blood clot.' Here's what to know about the condition and its symptoms.

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert’s campaign announced on Tuesday that the Republican congresswoman was found to have an “acute blood clot” and diagnosed with a condition called May-Thurner syndrome after going to the hospital the previous day. According to her team’s statement, Boebert, 37, sought medical treatment after developing severe swelling in the upper portion of her left leg. She subsequently underwent surgery to remove the clot and place a stent to keep her vein from narrowing again.

“After taking time to rest as recommended by doctors, she is expected to make a full recovery with no significant concerns for her long-term health and no hindrance to her ability to perform her duties as a Congresswoman,” her campaign said.
