By the way, doctor. I have high cholesterol, and have been taking Mevacor (lovastatin) for two years. Recently, I was switched to Pravachol (pravastatin) because my insurance company would no longer pay for Mevacor. Is it as good?

By the way, doctor. I have recently lost a cousin in her mid-forties to melanoma. She was fair-skinned and had a family history of melanoma and other cancers. Doctors suggested there might be a connection between her oral contraceptive, Loestrin, and the melanoma. Could this be true?

Ask the doctor. I've been taking tamoxifen for several months after completing treatment for breast cancer. My doctor prescribed it primarily to lower my risk of developing cancer in my unaffected breast. As a result of chemotherapy, I underwent menopause abruptly. Tamoxifen has worsened my symptoms, especially hot flashes and vaginal dryness. Other than stopping the tamoxifen, are there ways to deal with the side effects?

By the way, doctor. At my annual physical, I received cards to return to my doctor after collecting small samples of stool to test for fecal occult blood. I'm having trouble getting around to collecting these samples, because it is hard to get along without the motrin I take for back pain. The test materials instruct me to discontinue aspirin or NSAIDs and some foods for at least a week before collecting the samples. What should I do?

By the way, doctor, I'm thinking of trying a laser to remove the fine hair above my upper lip. How do lasers measure up to electrolysis, waxing, and other methods of removing hair?

By the way, doctor. Whenever my doctor prescribes a medication for me, I ask my pharmacist for the package insert describing the drug. However, I often find the information more alarming than helpful. How can supposedly safe drugs have so many side effects?

Ask the doctor. In your article on Alzheimer's disease (March, 1999), you mention "high doses of vitamin E" as helpful in slowing the progression of the condition. Specifically, what dose is recommended?
