I went to the doctor today. After examining me and discussing my issues the doctor didnt suggest any kinds of further tests. He did suggest that I go see a dermatologist for a spot that I have had on my foot. He said to make sure that I stay on top of it. He asked that I come back in 6 months to see if I have brought my cholesterol down and my good cholesterol up. He says that my lungs sound great. I explained the issue I have had with my breathing and he said that it will hopefully go away as my lungs are still adjusting to their new healthy lifestyle. My goal now is to start going to the gym a few more times a week and really stick to it. He said overall it seems that Im in good health.

If you continue to have problems with your breathing, I would strongly recommend a spirometry test. If you, by chance, have developed COPD, there are things you can do NOW to slow down its progression.
Glad all other things looked good, and that you intend to up your exercise. That's ALL good!
