	77141.	By the way, doctor... Exercise: nothing to fear. I'm 62, pretty trim, but I don't particularly enjoy exercise. My wife keeps telling me I need to be more physically active. But I've heard of several people who died during or shortly after exercise. If I don't need to lose weight, why should I expose myself to danger doing something I don't enjoy?

	77142.	By the way, doctor. When I attempt to go into the outdoor pool at my beach club, I gasp for breath, get dizzy and light-headed, and have to get out. Several years ago, I read an article that some people who are very sensitive to cold water may sustain a heart attack from submersion into cold water. Is this a possibility?

	77143.	Ask the doctor. The news that Vioxx was pulled from the market rattled me, since I had been taking it for my arthritis for almost two years. I have heard both that it is okay for people like me with heart disease to take one of the other Vioxx-like drugs and that it isn't okay. What do you recommend?

	77145.	By the way, doctor. I read your item about eggs in the April 2005 issue with great interest. My husband has type 2 diabetes and has started eating two eggs about three times a week. He's looking to fill up on low-carb foods he likes. You mentioned that eggs may not be a good idea for people with diabetes. Should he cut back?

	77146.	On call. When I had an MRI of my knee after a skiing injury last fall, I was told the test was dangerous for people who have metal devices in their bodies. Since then, I developed angina and my cardiologist put in a metal stent. I'm doing fine, but if I need an MRI in the future, will I be able to get one?

	77147.	Ask the doctor. I try to exercise every day to raise my heart rate. The standard formula of 220 minus age (I'm 79) times 0.9 gives an excessively high target for me. Because my resting heart rate is under 50, I would need to more than double my heart rate to reach a target of 128. Does the standard formula apply to people like me?

	77148.	Ask the doctor. Every article you write on preventing heart disease or stroke mentions the importance of exercise. But I can't exercise due to severe lower back problems. I religiously take medications for my high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and low thyroid. There must be other people like me who can't exercise but really want to prevent heart trouble. Can you give us any suggestions? [electronic resource] by Lee, Richard Producer: 20090828 In: Harvard heart letter : from Harvard Medical School vol. 16 Availability: No items available.

	77150.	Ask the doctor. I have had heart failure since my heart attack a year ago. My physician initially prescribed lisinopril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Unfortunately, I was one of the unlucky people who got a cough with this drug that was so annoying I had to stop taking it. Now my doctor wants me to try a newer drug called valsartan. Is it likely to help me? [electronic resource] by Lee, Thomas H Producer: 20020906 In: Harvard heart letter : from Harvard Medical School vol. 12 Availability: No items available.

	77151.	Is there a point at which you would recommend discontinuing treatment due to liver toxicity, short of liver failure? What, for instance, would be the numbers to look for with liver enzyme tests? How high is too high? My doctor has said they are seeing more people in their practice die from liver disorders than from the virus itself nowadays. This has me very concerned since I am co-infected with HCV.

	77153.	Ask the doctors. You often publish references in Heart Advisor to medical journal articles and I've started trying to read some of them in my doctor's waiting room. One surprise is that they (and you) often refer to "recent" research. But I've learned that some of the "recent" findings took years to get published. I would think that people who discover new ways to save lives would want to tell the world as soon as possible.

	77154.	Ask the doctor. My blood pressure is 180/80 mm Hg. My doctor tells me this a common problem for people in their 70s, like me. The problem is that whenever I try medicines at doses high enough to get my top number under 140 mm Hg (which I understand to be the goal), I get exhausted or have other side effects. Do I really need to worry about my blood pressure when the bottom number is so good?

	77155.	Ask the doctor. A hospital near me is advertising electron beam CT scanning of the heart to detect coronary artery disease. I don't have any symptoms of heart disease, but I did undergo this test--paying my own money, I would note! It came back with a fairly high calcium score, and the testing people told me to tell me doctor about it. My doctor says he doesn't know what to do with the information. Do you?

	77156.	Ask the doctor. After a heart attack six years ago, I went on Lipitor (atorvastatin) because my doctor said it was proven to reduce the risk of a second heart attack in high-risk people like me. Three years ago, I switched to a generic (simvastatin) to save money. Now that Lipitor is going generic, should I switch back? And can I be assured that the generic version will be as effective as brand-name Lipitor at preventing a second heart attack?

	77158.	I am a woman in my early 60s and I have osteopenia, for which my doctor prescribed four Citracal caplets with vitamin D every day. This provides 800 international units (IU) of vitamin D. I get another 266 IU of vitamin D from a daily multivitamin and mineral supplement. I read recently that people who don't get 15 minutes of sunlight every day should probably take 4,000 IU of D daily. But that is twice the safe upper limit of 2,000 IU. What are the dangers of taking 4,000 IU daily? Are there side effects and warning signs that you're taking too much? What amount would you recommend?
