I will get out of bed after a night of sleep and get the feeling after being up for only 30 minutes. I am not overweight..infact, I used to jog, play basketball with my boys, jump on the trampoline with the kids, go for walks with my hubbie, etc...now I get winded going up the stairs. It is a very frustrating problem. |
