DEAR. DR. ROACH: I saw a recent reply to a letter about estrogen and wanted to ask my own related questions. I’m a 93-yearold woman with many of the problems and issues of others my age. When I was going through menopause, my doctor put me on oral estrogen. He said it was to protect my heart and bones. About 20 years later, I developed uterine cancer. I’m wondering if the estrogen could have led to the cancer. I had a hysterectomy and radiation treatments six times a week for six weeks. I find myself wishing I could go back and refuse the estrogen. I could have coped with the menopause issues and maybe now I wouldn’t have the worse problem of neuropathy. I certainly wish there was some treatment available for it. -- B.

Q: I gained about 25 pounds during the pandemic and it’s affecting my health, but when I went to my doctor for an annual checkup (finally), she didn’t say a word about what to do to lose weight -- so I didn’t either. Should I make another appointment and insist we discuss it? -- Janna R., Portland, Oregon
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 71-year-old male, 6 feet 1 inch tall, weigh 240 pounds and have atrial fibrillation. It has not impacted my lifestyle. About 90 days ago I had meniscus surgery called a “clean out.” Afterward, my orthopedic surgeon said I should be much better, even though there was significant arthritis. The surgery has not provided me much relief. After examination yesterday, the doctor injected my knee with cortisone, explaining this was the last alternative before a knee replacement.
