Patients participating in this research study will be seen on an outpatient basis and undergo a general medical evaluation, including blood tests, urine, examination, chest x-ray and electrocardiogram (EKG). In addition, patients may be asked to have an echocardiogram (ultrasound scan of the heart) and to perform an exercise stress test. Patients participating in this study will not receive any investigational treatments.
