Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has handed over a one-page summary of his recent physical on a doctor's television show－but the campaign won't reveal what was disclosed.

Trump, ever the showman, appeared on The Dr Oz Show in what was billed by the campaign as a discussion about his general well-being and his family's medical history. But reversing what aides had said earlier Wednesday, Trump handed host Mehmet Oz one-page of results from a physical conducted last week by his longtime physician, Dr. Harold Bornstein.

The show is scheduled to air this week and the campaign declined to immediately disclose the results. But a release from the show said that "Dr. Oz took Mr. Trump though a full review of his systems" including his nervous system, cardiovascular health, prostate health and family medical history.

Both Trump and his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, have been under increased pressure to release detailed medical records, especially after Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia and was captured on video stumbling getting into a waiting van at a 9/11 memorial ceremony on Sunday.

Bornstein had previously written a note declaring the 70-year-old Trump, if elected, would be the healthiest president in history. He later said he had written the letter in five minutes as a limousine sent by the candidate idled outside.

The campaigns of both Trump and Clinton, 68, have said that their candidates would be releasing detailed medical records in the coming days.

In a week of intense speculation about the health of the two candidates, supporters of Gary Johnson, the Libertarian presidential nominee and former governor of New Mexico, hoped that his candidacy would get a new boost. Johnson will be on the ballot in all 50 states and the District of Columbia in November's presidential election, his campaign announced on Tuesday.

"With a majority of Americans wanting a choice other than Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, today we now know for certain that on Election Day, every voter in America will have that alternative option," Johnson said in a statement.

Green Party candidate Jill Stein is currently on the ballot in 45 states, including the District of Columbia, according to her campaign website. She is qualified as a write-in candidate in three additional states.

Trump's appearance with Oz came hours before the Republican nominee was to visit Flint, Michigan to condemn the government failure that led to that city's water crisis. The city's mayor made clear she did not want him to come.

Trump was cut off, chastised and then heckled after he attacked rival Hillary Clinton during what was supposed to be a speech on helping where the government had failed the people of Flint, Michigan.

"Mr Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we've done in Flint, not give a political speech," said the Rev. Faith Green Timmons, the pastor of the Bethel United Methodist Church.

The Republican nominee quickly stopped, then said, "Ok, that's good, Then I'm going to go back to Flint" and its water crisis that had sickened its citizens.

The trip was Trump's first visit to the poverty-stricken city since lead was detected in its water supply in April 2014. More than 100,000 had their water contaminated after the city left Detroit's water supply and started using improperly treated Flint River water.

Trump did address the crisis, saying at the church "We will get it fixed and it will be fixed and effectively and Flint will come back. Most importantly, we'll bring jobs back."

He also bemoaned that previously "cars were made in Flint and you couldn't drink the water in Mexico. Now cars are made in Mexico and you can't drink the water in Flint."
