Football: Maradona has responded well to sedation - Neurosurgeon

Diego Maradona's neurosurgeon, Leopoldo Luque, says the great Argentine football player is recovering well. Luque: "His sedation is decreasing and we have noticed a very good response from Diego [Maradona], a neurological response. So, the next step is to see if Diego is stable with these drugs that are being taken orally. That's a big step. Truthfully, his recovery is still very good. "Abstinence is mainly due to consumption from throughout his life. We have not stated it because of a certain substance, from drinking or anything. We have seen a reaction that is basically a sweating reaction, at one point anger and we have classified it as that, it is a syndrome. The syndrome is a set of signs and symptoms, based on that we have said it’s a withdrawal syndrome. We are treating it and have not let him leave. We are treating it. Diego was not much in agreement. We insisted and what happened, happened."
