    Hey,
    So I was thinking at the weekend. I do alot of exercise these days and some of it is quite intense. With all the recent media attention of SADS fresh in my mind is there any clinic or travelling clinic where I can get checked in Dublin? I know the gaa provide this service for alot of players so there might be a mobile unit.

    Anyways, any info is appreciated

    There was a general fitness check included in my VHI. Went up to the Santry clinic, had a few things strapped to my chest, mask on my face and was put on a treadmill. Not too sure it would have shown up SADS symptoms, but put my mind at ease for another whiel anyway. If ya have health insurance check it out - it might be included in your policy.
