SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — U.S. Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota was resting in a Sioux Falls hospital Tuesday after having his gallbladder removed earlier in the day, his staff said.
Johnson, 63, was admitted to Avera McKennan Hospital and University Health Center on Sunday with a high fever. Tests on Monday night determined the problem was his gallbladder.
Doctors have said they do not believe Johnson’s current ailments are related to a life-threatening brain hemorrhage he suffered about four years ago.
