M1ANILA — Detained Sen. Jinggoy Estrada on Monday asked the Sandiganbayan Fifth Division to allow him to undergo a series of medical check-up and physical therapy.<\/p>\n

In his two-page motion to the anti-graft body, Estrada said he needs to undergo medical check-up at the Cardinal Santos Medical Center in San Juan City which he claims has his previous medical records.<\/p>\n

Estrada is complaining of back pains for the past few days.<\/p>\n

He said in his motion that he needs to undergo physical therapy three times a week which means he has to leave the PNP Detention Center frequently in order that his health condition could be monitored.<\/p>\n

Medical prescription recommended by Dr. Tyrone Reyes of Cardinal Santos Medical Center, Estrada\u2019s personal physician is attached in the motion.<\/p>\n

Reyes claimed that Estrada needs special equipment like hydrocollator, ultrasound, transcutaneous nerve stimulation and cervical traction.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs explained by Dr. Reyes, Senator Estrada needs to undergo a supervised therapy and program two to three times a week for two to four weeks that can be done in a sufficiently, equipped physical therapy department,\u201d the motion read.<\/p>\n

The needed equipment for the series of testing is not available at the PNP General Hospital.<\/p>\n

Estrada is facing plunder case after allegedly receiving Php183 million kickbacks from a non-government organization controlled by pork barrel queen Janet Lim Napoles.<\/p>\n

Estrada was inspired by the same motion filed earlier by Senator Bong Revilla before the Sandiganbayan First Division which allowed him to undergo an overnight check-up at the St. Luke\u2019s Medical City in Taguig City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
