1. Ask the doctor. I've been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. My daughter gave me a clipping from a natural health magazine that says the most common reason for this heart rhythm problem is magnesium deficiency. Is there any truth to this?

4. I recently had an episode of atrial fibrillation. My doctor gave me pills to slow my heart, but I then had to go into the hospital to have my heart shocked back to its normal rhythm. I'm now taking Coumadin to prevent stroke. I feel fine, but worry that the fibrillation will come back. What brings on this condition?

5. Ask the doctor. I read that Vice President Cheney received an implantable defibrillator because of some extra beats on his electrocardiogram. I've also had some extra beats, but I've never had a heart attack or any other heart problems. My doctor told me not to worry. Is the Vice President getting better care than I am?

6. On call. I am 47 years old and I've always been healthy. My main problem is insomnia. Sleeping pills don't work well, and they make me feel groggy. Finally, my doctor gave me a prescription for Desyrel, and he seems to have hit the bull's-eye. I've been sleeping much better and haven't noticed any side effects. But my pharmacist warned me about abnormal erections. Is it a serious concern?

9. Ask the doctor. Even though my weight and health are fine (good blood pressure and cholesterol), my doctor and my partner want me to be more active. But I don't like exercise, and I've heard of people dying while they exercise. Why should I bother doing something that isn't totally safe?

12. Ask the Doctor: Because I had a lot of rhythm abnormalities after my heart attack a few years ago, my doctor gave me an implantable defibrillator. I've gotten so used to it that I forgot I even had it until a few weeks ago when I was sitting at dinner and felt a big thump in my chest that nearly knocked me out of my chair. I went to my cardiologist, who did some tests and told me not to worry about it. As I see it, I just died and was rescued by this thing. Shouldn't something more be done for me?

14. 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?

18. Ask the doctor. Every so often I get a feeling of pressure around my heart that can last for hours. It worries me since I've already had several procedures for coronary artery disease. Can episodes of angina last this long?

19. Ask the doctor. A heart attack caused me to develop heart rhythm problems. These made it necessary for me to get an implantable cardioventer/defibrillator (ICD) that can shock my heart back to a normal rhythm. My medical story is a lot like Vice President Dick Cheney's, but my social situation isn't--I don't have anyone to drive me around. My doctor doesn't want me to drive. But depending on friends and family is a major problem, and we don't live near public transportation. Any suggestions?
