  • 41. 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.

  • 42. On call. I was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure. I reread your articles from December 2003 and January 2004 and found them very helpful. I was hoping that my doctor would prescribe a diuretic, but she said it would not be safe because I'm allergic to sulfa drugs. What do you think?

  • 43. Can you tell me about "white-coat syndrome?" When I'm at the doctor's office, my blood pressure can get as high as 220/110. But when I take my blood pressure at home, it is 130/84. I have an outgoing personality, so I don't think it's bottled tension!

  • 46. On call. I've always been completely healthy. At my last check-up, my cholesterol was 295. I'm worried, but my doctor tells me I don't need treatment. What do you suggest?

  • 47. My diastolic blood pressure reading consistently registers 65 to 75, but my systolic registers 125 to 135. My doctor says that because that diastolic is well controlled (I'm 72 and take amlodipine), that there's no need to try to lower the systolic. What do you think?

  • 49. Ask the doctor. I'm 64 and have had lone atrial fibrillation for about a decade. I have an echocardiogram every year to make sure the rest of my heart is okay. (It is.) My doctor hasn't prescribed and medications for me, but she wants me to take a blood thinner when I hit my 65th birthday. I'd rather not do this. Should I follow her recommendation? Also, is it possible that the endurance-type exercise regimens I have performed over many years led to my developing lone atrial fibrillation?

  • 50. Ask the doctor. I'd like to start monitoring my blood pressure at home, but I'm not sure when I'm supposed to do it. Is there one particular time of day that's best?

  • 51. Ask the doctor. My doctor recently put me on Tenormin because my blood pressure was getting high. Now, when I run or row, I can't get my heart rate much above 115 beats per minute even though my peak heart rate should be 136. Is the beta blocker keeping me from getting the full benefit of exercise?

  • 53. By the way, doctor. I'm a 63-year-old woman with impaired fasting glucose, and I'd like to take Glucophage or Avandia to prevent or delay the onset of diabetes. My weight was well controlled until my 50s, when it started to rise. I think impaired fasting glucose caused the weight gain.

  • 55. Ask the doctor. I'm a healthy 58-year-old man recently diagnosed with high blood pressure. My doctor prescribed metoprolol, and my blood pressure is now in the normal range. But I've started having trouble getting an erection. Could the medication be causing this problem, and if so, is there anything I can do about it?

  • 56. I'm 67 and I've been a runner for many years. I was recently diagnosed with high blood pressure, which runs in my family. I take two medications for it, but we're still trying to get the right combination to get it under control. Can I continue running and how will know if I'm overdoing it?

  • 57. On call. My last two blood tests showed that my cholesterol is too high. My doctor wants me to take a statin drug, but I'd rather use a natural remedy. I saw an ad for red yeast rice that says it's as effective as the statins, and I can get it without a prescription-- but should I?

  • 60. On call. I am a 57-year-old man with a dilemma. I understand from your articles that moderate drinking may help me avoid a heart attack like the one that killed my brother. But I've just been diagnosed with hypertension, and I was told that alcohol can raise my blood pressure and stress my heart. So I need to know if drinking is likely to help my heart or harm my health.
