Simon, Harvey B

Except for high cholesterol, I've always been pretty healthy for my age (72). But I recently started puffing on the stairs, so my doctor sent me for a set of tests. After the echocardiogram, he told me I had congestive heart failure. He gave me Lasix and I feel much better. But now he wants me to take at least three other pills every day. Do I need all of them if I feel well? [electronic resource] - Harvard men's health watch Oct 2002 - 8 p. digital
