The three-time former prime minister was shifted to the presidential suite of the Cardiac Centre, hospital sources told *Dawn TV.*
A check-up at the hospital revealed that Sharif's sugar level is high and he is suffering from stress, the sources said, quoting doctors.
Caretaker Punjab home minister Shaukat Javed said on state-run *PTV* that doctors had advised his transfer to hospital after an electrocardiogram had shown “variations”.
“How many days he stays in hospital depends on doctors,” Javed said.
Earlier today, Dr Naeem Malik, head of the Pims cardiology department, suggested that authorities shift Sharif to the hospital as his blood tests showed clotting which, according to the doctor, was an alarming sign considering his medical history. The PML-N supremo lives with diabetes and has also undergone bypass surgery. He currently takes medication for his heart condition, cholesterol and diabetes.
