Well, after a month of not feeling quit right, I went in and had a sonogram on my left shoulder and neck areas. They found a clot in my left deep jugular vein and across my chest leading from my left arm to my right ventricle artery. Kinda serious shit!?

After weeks of shortness of breath and coughing mostly only when exercising or surfing things got a little worse. I became really fatigue and then a few days later started getting chills, fever and sweats. I went to the ER yesterday and they diagnosed me with pneumonia.
