Former US President Bill Clinton is back at work after a lightning intervention to insert two stents into an artery 11 February. He complained of chest pains after his visit to Haiti last week, but doctors say he did not have a heart attack. Clinton, 63, underwent quadruple bypass surgery in 2004.
He has since improved his diet and exercises regularly, but friends say he still sometimes indulges in unhealthful food, and leads a hectic lifestyle. The incident was likely triggered by stress, doctors say.
