MP treated for brain haemorrhage

A Scottish Labour MP is recovering in hospital from what she describes as "a small brain haemorrhage".Anne Moffat was admitted to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary on Monday, 18 May, with a high temperature, shakiness, nausea and a severe headache. The East Lothian MP hopes to leave hospital in the coming week. The MP said doctors had diagnosed a small amount of bleeding on the brain and problems with her body's hormone production system. Ms Moffat told the BBC Scotland news website: "It was like a knife going through my brain from back to front. A sharp, shooting pain." She added: "I am very confident I will be fit, healthy and back on my feet very soon." Ms Moffat suffered cuts, bruises and broken ribs after saying she was mugged by a gang of youths near her home last May. In November, the business of her constituency party was temporarily suspended by Labour's ruling body, amid a bitter dispute over her re-selection as a candidate.
