Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said on Saturday he is "in perfect health," after undergoing a series of medical tests following his brief hospitalization for high blood pressure two days ago, Reuters reported. Lula's personal doctor, Roberto Kalil, said results of the tests at the Sao Paulo Heart Institute Saturday morning were good and the former union leader, aged 64, was heading for Brasilia after resting for two days at his private residence. "Thank God I'm in perfect health," a smiling Lula told reporters, adding that he wasn't alarmed by his condition on Wednesday night, but became concerned. He had to cancel a trip to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland after he was briefly taken to a hospital in northeastern Brazil because of unusually high blood pressure. "If it were up to me, I would just take a bit of medicine and board for Davos, but it's the doctor's responsibility" to decide, he said.
