On call. Last week I received a mailing from a Canadian company that did not support American drugs like Hytrin and Proscar in dealing with enlarged prostates. There were about 30 testimonials in favor of its product. The company says that zinc is an essential ingredient to shrink the prostate. It further states the need for pyridoxine and certain amino acids, Serenoa, repens (saw palmetto), serrulata, Panax extract, and hydrangea extract. Comments from various European magazines are also cited

On call. I am 58 years old. I've always been healthy, but my doctor found that my cholesterol was 279. He prescribed Mevacor, and my cholesterol came down to 210. Do I still need to be on a low-fat diet?

I appreciate all the good advice you give us about how to pass less urine at night. I've cut out coffee and alcohol, and I don't even have water with dinner. It has helped a lot, but it seems that you should also be advising us to cut down on salt to reduce night-time urine. Wouldn't a low-salt diet also help?

On call. I am a 69-year-old man who had a radical prostatectomy three years ago. I feel fine and my PSA is undetectable. I've heard that a special scan can detect prostate cancer, but my hospital doesn't seem to know about it. Should I try to arrange one?

I'm a 44-year-old former smoker. I have just been diagnosed with colitis, and I've heard that smoking can help my condition. There is no cancer or heart disease in my family. Should I start smoking again?

I am a 66-year-old retired accountant in good general health. My legs ache and tingle at night, especially when I'm trying to get to sleep. Do I have the restless leg problem? What can I do about it?

My question, our 12-year-old son. Almost every time he eats ice cream he gets a terrible headache. I don't think he is allergic to milk, since he drinks it by the quart. What's wrong?

On call: I am a 68-year-old man who had bypass surgery last month. My heart did fine, but I had trouble urinating after my urinary catheter came out. The problem cleared up in a day, but my doctor ordered a PSA test, which came back high (7.8). I don't feel up to another operation. What should I do?

I was very surprised when my cardiologist sent me a bill for a telephone call. It was a long conversation, but I've never had to pay for advice before. Are most doctors charging for phone calls?
