AM - 1 mile walk before work followed by a yoga session online.

Did my nuclear stress test this morning and was hoping everything would check out as normal; but it did not.  Something in the stress portion of the test results has led my cardiologist to order a cardiac CT.  There was not a clear finding of a blockage, but instead an "artifact" showed an area of concern - thus prompting the need for more testing.  I was also told not to run until more testing rules out heart issues.  I was disappointed with the result, but at the same time, I actually felt really kinda bad yesterday and need to know what's going on and if it can be fixed.

AM - 3.5 miles of walking, in which I might have been seen to be jogging at an easy pace on the treadmill in my hotel in Mumbai after a lengthy journey.  Honestly feeling much better and could not help myself but to do a little running.  35 mins of Yoga afterwards.
