Great advice, thanks a bunch Annie & Mandy. I think I'm still in bit of shock after this diagnosis. Today I went for a short hike with my honey, and as we went tromped up a pretty steep hill, I thouht to myself. "man alive, I need to lose weight!....and...."will this trigger a breathing issue?" It didn't, thank God, but I'm hoping it isn't going to be on my mind every minute of every day.

I'm going to search the threads and possibly start a new one about what excersize is appropriate after a diagnosis like this.
