If there is a family history of premature sudden death (age 40), a personal history of fainting, passing out, chest discomfort/shortness of breath with exercise and/or any complex medical condition with ongoing treatment, we will not be able to clear them with this sports physical. It is suggested that these students follow-up with their family physician or pediatrician. If these dates or times are not convenient, you may have the physical done by your own physician or at any other medical center. This examination must be certified by a licensed medical professional acting within the scope and limitations of his/her practice. If you have any questions regarding the physicals, please contact the Billings Public Schools Activities Office, Julie Glasson (281-5073) or Joni Bertsch (281-5074).
