Malacanang has finally come clean on the brouhaha triggered by reports about medical procedures she underwent in the course of her two-day “quarantine”at the Asian Medical Center since she returned from abroad.

Pres. Arroyo’s lady deputy spokesperson Lorelei Fajardo cited the personal nature of the procedures.
Press Secretary Cerge Remonded conceded that Mrs. Arroyo called him to clarify the matter, describing the chief executive as being “irked”.
Here’s what Secretary Remonde told ABS-CBN News:
Ang nangyari ganito, as I’ve said, nagkakaroon nga ng continuous regular check-up si Presidente tulad ng pagpasok niya sa Asian Medical Center. Merong nakita na something sa kanyang breast at sa kanyan sa may groin, so nuong nagcheck na siya at this time so that’s bi-niopsy yung nakita na iyon sa breast niya at saka sa groin.
I mean you can look at her she if she is the type who has a breast implant. Makita n’yo naman kung… halata naman yung mga babae na merong implant o wala.
Yung mga sexy actress diyan na malalaki ang boobs, yan ang mga may implant. Di naman natin masasabi kay Presidente ‘yan.
It is surely the hope, and intent, of the Palace’s spokespeople that the issue will finally subside and for things to return to normal.
They say Mrs. Arroyo’s been given a clean bill of health with the biopsied cysts all benign or non-cancerous.
A clear lesson is being drawn here: the health of our Head of State and Head of Government us imbued with public interest.
The next time around the public should expect the type of candor belatedly displayed by Secretary Remonde as standard operating procedure.

Write on.

The Public has the right to know the condition of Our Head of State, whether or not we disagree with how she runs the country. It is a big deal, no matter how small “the problem” is.
yeah, big deal for gossip and scandal mongers. the constitution only requires public disclosure of SERIOUS ILLNESS. the president is also entitled to a certain amount of personal privacy. she, with the advice of her doctors, is the sole judge of her health condition, and whether to share it with the public or not.
btw, for those who don’t notice, this is a redundant post and a duplication of patricio mangubat’s recent opus “transparency”.
Oh sure, my esteemed ‘legal eagle’.
When opinions coincide are they redundant or are they resonant.
When someone seconds, buttresses your legal position, does it strengthen the position or do you blithely dismiss it as redundant?
Iba ka talaga.
Ngayon kung pupurihin ko ang President kapag sang-ayon ako, sasabihin mo naman bumaligtad ako o kaya’y nabayaran?
Magpakatutoo ka, boss. Big deal ka.
but ding, this is the same question we dealt with at length in mangubat’s post, didn’t we? in fact, you had a series of questions on this matter as to what and when the health condition of the president must be disclosed
Breast implants? LOL
Talk about how gossip turns a story of fact into a whole carnival of half-truths, exaggerations and utter lies.
This nation has had enough of showbiz talk shows.
Tutoo yun, jhay.
This could have been avoided if from the outset Malacanang told the people the story.
Instead the story leaked, obviously with inside sources at Asian Hospital making the disclosures.
A reminder to all women with breast implants…
Regular breast examination is needed for all women. Those with breast implants are particularly special because the screening X-ray may be less effective in detecting cancer as the silicon implant obscures a proportion of breast tissue. Mammography may, at times, damage the implant. It is important to tell the radiographer if the breasts have been augmented and the type of implant used.
Women with breast implants may, in the long run, have costly medical check-ups because further diagnostic tests may be needed for cancer detection, e.g., ultrasound or MRI.
Breast implants interfere in cancer detection especially so in women who have complications of the aesthetics device.

MRI is magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is still a new technology. It
has still some areas need for improvement. Not 100% accurate. But, it
is the new available medical tool for diagnosis along with CAT SCAN,
DOPPLER IMAGING TECH, etc…more medical techs on the way.
Maybe Ms. Lorelei Fajardo wants a Breast Implant Size 44 D….
We can find her a good Plastic Surgeon. Guaranteed Satisfaction,
or Money Back. Pwede pang Credit Card payment. Lifetime warranty
that it will not leak, 2009 model.
Ok, Atty. Ben.
You saying I should delete my post? That’s my own perspective so deal with it.
Bakit hindi ka magsulat?
Ano nakakatamad ba o mas masaya ka na humuhusga lang? Huwes ka?
Go through FV’s body of work.
See how Contributors write their own takes on issues regardless of whether these have been taken up.
Finally if YOU feel a post is ‘done’ then don’t read it.
Kaya mo rin yan, di ba boss?
well, ding, i just thought there is such a thing as over-milking the breast, ha ha.
LOL. You’re better when your sense of humor un-based on rumor reveals itself.
Anyway the Palace has made a ‘clean breast’ of the matter’. :)
This allows us to get things off our breast…errrr chest.
While this is a true “personal matter” issue, I can say that all the faces of the old men who commented the same thing about the presidential implant screamed through their obsecene grins: “ang gaga, akala niya me iaasim pa siya!” as seen on tv!
