Besides the poetry, Saddam has had several health issues while being held as a "guest"
Ten days ago, he underwent a hernia operation at a hospital in the Green Zone. The procedure went well and he went back to his cell the same day.
Other health care issues include high blood pressure and a prostate infection
. Doctors have treated that with anitbiotics and other tests to see if
there is a prostate cancer issue. They do not believe so, but Saddam refused the biopsy that would have made sure.
