and I'm not even at an airport. However, I'm having an echo-cardiogram and stress test tomorrow. However, I know in advance and it still sucks.

I've been having chest pains and shortness of breath for awhile. When I told my doctor last summer I was sent for a CT scan and they found a couple of benign tumors on my liver, but they didn't follow up any further to determine what was causing the problem. I've also had some inflammation in my lower right leg so there may be a circulatory issue of some nature occurring.

At this point they are trying to diagnose what might be occurring. My weight is normal for my height which is actually heavy by my own personal standards since I was always skinny as a child and as an adult. I could use more exercise, but considering that the last time I did any running I fell and broke my arm the only thing I feel comfortable doing is riding a bicycle.
