Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein has been hospitalized after contracting shingles.
Feinstein, who is also a former San Francisco mayor, is expected to make a full recovery.
"I was diagnosed over the February recess with a case of the shingles," Feinstein said in a statement Thursday. "I have been hospitalized and am receiving treatment in San Francisco and expect to make a full recovery. I hope to return to the Senate later this month."
The senator, who turns 90 in June, is the oldest member of Congress.
