'Further tests will determine which steps to follow regarding his treatment.

Berizzo, 48, made no statement on his health when speaking to media after the Spanish side came from 0-3 down at half-time to draw 3-3 against the five-time European champions.
A former centre-back for River Plate, Marseille and Celta Vigo among others, Berizzo is in his first season as Sevilla boss after three successful years in charge of Celta Vigo.
Several Sevilla players had hailed Berizzo's powers of motivation to orchestrate their second-half fightback.
Sevilla sit fifth in LaLiga and need just a point from their final Champions League group game away at Maribor to secure their place in the last 16.
It remains to be seen whether Berizzo will need to take time away from his duties as coach to concentrate on his recuperation.
In the 2012-13 season, then Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova stood aside for several months as he underwent treatment for throat cancer in New York.
Vilanova returned for the final two months of the season as Barca won the league with a club record 100 points, but resigned shortly afterwards and passed away in April 2014 at just 45.
