I read with some concern about your incidence on this hunting trip and would strongly suggest a decent medical just to be on the safe side. I had a friend who was extremely fit and a bloody good hunter, who always hunted by himself, have a Heart attack whilst hunting. Be safe and minimise the risks. I do a major medical every 3yrs for my commercial diving tickets, and it's bloody good piece of mind. Just go into any Coronary ward in any Hospital and see the number of young guys who have suffered a stroke or heart attack. Nana's rant over

All good GA. I have a medical annually through work.
I am normally fine with a solid days hunting but this time we went way to hard for way to long.
I should have had a decent rest in between stints but we kept pushing on.
