Hey, I have a question about body structure when it comes to being an EMT, I am not a really big guy but I am interested in being an EMT, What do I have to be able to do physical wise in order to be an EMT?

It is called Photosensitive epilepsy, and no fortunately I dont have that. So flashing lights is not a problem for me. I really dont want an office/sitdown job, thats not me, I really dont. I have been turned down jobs because "You are liability", you have no idea how many times I have heard this. I just really wanted to be involved in EMS or the Military ever since I was literally 5 years old, thats all I ever wanted to do. Now I cant do either of them. I am not a whining nor am I negative person, I am very positive and goal oriented and want to get the most out of life and help others. I am just having problems on choosing a career that I am actually allowed to do.

Hello I am Joseph and I am 18 years old. I live in Atlanta and I want to be an EMT. The problem is, I have epilepsy, I really want to know if I am able to become an EMT with me having epilepsy. Please respond if you can, this determines where I go within the next 2 months. Thanks.
