  • 3. Ask the doctor. I am 73 years old and have had a heart murmur for years. Now my doctor tells me that I have moderate narrowing of my aortic valve. I feel perfectly fine, but he says I may need heart surgery some day. Is there anything I can do to avoid having surgery?

  • 7. Ask the doctor. I'm a 42-year-old man with no health problems, except for the fact that I'm a bit overweight. I recently had an exercise test because of some chest pain. The good news is that it showed no evidence of heart problems, but during the test my blood pressure quickly shop up to 190 mm Hg. Usually, it's about 35/90 mm Hg. The doctor doing the test didn't seem too alarmed, but I'm concerned.

  • 8. I have been getting very short of breath with mild activities, like making my bed. My cardiologist says I have narrowing of my aortic valve that needs to be repaired with an operation. But I'm 87! Aren't I too old for a big operation?

  • 9. On call. I've had my PSA tested every year since 1992 and I'm happy to say it's always been normal. But now my doctor doesn't want to do the test anymore because I'm 78 years old. Should I go to another doctor for my test?

  • 10. Ask the Doctor. I'm 45 years old. At the doctor's office, my blood pressure readings are usually pretty high (the top number may reach 150 or 160), but my home monitor shows numbers more like 130/90. My doctor calls my problem "white-coat hypertension" and reassures me that it isn't dangerous. But it bothers me that my pressure shoots up like that. I have plenty of stressful moments every day, and my blood pressure must be going up then, too. Should I be on medication?

  • 12. Ask the doctor. I have had a leaking aortic valve for many years. I get an echocardiogram every six months. After the latest one, my doctor told me that my heart was enlarging and asked me repeatedly whether I was getting short of breath with exercise. I told him that sure, I get tired, but it isn't like I am breathing hard while sitting still. Now he wants me to have surgery to replace the valve. Should I do this at age 68?

  • 13. On call. Your article on new immunizations for adults was very helpful. I already got my booster for tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough, but even though I'm 61, my doctor didn't want to give me the shingles because I've already had shingles. Should I get the vaccine?

  • 15. By the way, doctor... I've had a bothersome cough for years, and my doctor hasn't been able to make a diagnosis. Two chest x-rays have been normal. I find that coughing can produce embarrassing interruptions when I'm on the phone or in ordinary conversations. My family is worried about what might be going on. I'm not a smoker, so this isn't a smoker's cough I am talking about. Can you help me?

  • 16. 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?

  • 17. On call. When I saw my doctor on my 73rd birthday, my only complaint was that I've been having trouble with my erections over the past year. I was surprised that my doctor didn't do any blood tests beyond the usual battery, and he didn't refer me to a specialist. Instead, he gave me a prescription for Viagra. The pills are working fine, but should I have tests to find out what's wrong?

  • 20. Ask the doctor. My father has severe heart failure. The doctors say his ejection fraction is only about 10%, and he gets short of breath during any physical activity. I've read that beta blockers are useful for heart failure, but his doctors say they're too risky for my father. I'm worried that he's missing out on a beneficial treatment.
