Just curios what a good heart doctor might eat all the time.

anybody know any good heart doctors?

I sure would like to meet one, and learn what they like to eat.

It could save my life!

Cardiologists eat pecker, no cholesterol... enjoy!

OK, I'll bite. A well-known cardiologist is Mehmet Oz, MD. Reference
this book/website -- it may say your life! http://www.youonadiet.com/

If a more "official" website it preferred, then here's this one for the
same doc:
http://asp.cumc.columbia.edu/facdb/profile_list.asp?uni=mco2&DepAffil=Surgery
---- same as http://tinyurl.com/qfj95

You can also find stuff about Dr. Oz on Oprah's website, too.

After I had my Pacer installed,
my cardiologist gave me "the talk" about diet.

"If it tastes good, SPIT IT OUT"

And then we both laughed.

That is a really great site! I took the "real age" test and am waiting for
my results.

Some years ago, a man named Joe Piscatella in Tacoma, age 34 or some such, had a near fatal heart
attack. He describes himself as a pretty typical Italian eater, and he was told to change. There
was no internet for citizens, little published in the popular press about cholesterol and such, so
he decided to learn on his own. Learn he did, and when he had finished he published "Don't Eat your
Heart Out" (published by Workman Press). The book has three parts: The first part is a discussion
of lipids and stuff associated with heart disease. The second are recipes. The third has menus.

Open the book from the end for the first reading, and look at a couple of menus. Your reaction may
well be, "Hey, this looks like real food!". That will give you the right attitude for starting at
the beginning.

The book is a bit out of date, but it worked for him, it worked for me, and I recommended the book
when I was counseling others as a preventive medicine MD. Now we know about trans fats - he didn't,
but what he did know is as true today as it was then. (Except: we know that salt intake doesn't
*cause* heart disease. Technically it causes hypertension, and hypertension causes heart disease -
what a niggling distinction!)

A quick search reveals it is not at University Bookstore in Seattle, but Alibris has it for small
cash: http://www.alibris.com/

That's ok. I made the discovery that my allergy medication hikes my
blood pressure up quite a bit. This is prescription medication btw.

I did a little experiment and went three days without it. I was
completely miserable but my blood pressure was normal. Once I go back on
the drugs it goes up.

So I talked to my doctor and told him I had two choices, either be
miserable for 3 or so months a year, or having elevated blood pressure
for those 3 months.

Luckily my doctor is a pragmatic sort and agrees that suffering the
effects of allergies isn't pleasant and so continue the medication.

Is it possible to switch to another allergy medication?

Heart doctors dont have hearts. Therefore they dont need to regulate
their diets.
