"20 stitches later and a full recovery, I'm back home with @giselefetterman and the kids. I'm overwhelmed + profoundly grateful for all the well-wishes. Truly. Grateful for @UPMC for the incredible medical care that put me back together. THANK YOU SO MUCH. See you back in DC. pic.twitter.com/j81LXZGLBx U.S. Senator John Fetterman (@SenFettermanPA) November 15, 2025"
"The post came after Fetterman fell during a walk near his Braddock home on Thursday morning a spill that sent him immediately to the hospital. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Fetterman suffered from ventricular fibrillation, which it said was a condition that is the most severe form of arrhythmia and a common cause of cardiac death. Those who are not treated immediately are at risk of cardiac arrest."
"Fetterman's health scare comes a few years after he suffered a stroke during the 2022 senatorial race against Dr. Mehmet Oz. The senator revealed, in an excerpt from his new book, Unfettered, that was shared by The Free Press on Monday, that he was suicidal and dealt with severe depression after what he called a disaster of a debate against Dr. Oz. For months [after the debate], I was suicidal. Paranoid. Not eating. Not sleeping. Not speaking. Not functioning. Resigned. Asha"
Sen. John Fetterman recovered fully at home after being rushed to the hospital for a heart issue following a fall near his Braddock home. He received 20 stitches and shared a smiling photo showing a scraped forehead and nose while thanking the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for their care and expressing gratitude for well-wishes. Medical reports indicated he suffered ventricular fibrillation, a severe arrhythmia that can cause cardiac death if untreated. The incident occurred years after a 2022 stroke, and he previously described months of severe depression and suicidal feelings after a harsh debate.
