I know a few reasons that I can think of. Since I started this job, I've gained maybe a stone in weight which isn't great, I've also coincidentally started getting this chest pain and chest tightness...

I just speak and if I stutter, I doubt anyone would hear or care but if I stutter really bad, I'll be deeply embarrassed...
