DEAR DR. ROACH: Many of my dad’s side of the family -- from my grandmother to my uncles and aunts, as well as their kids -- have had oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD). Most people started having symptoms around age 65, and I’m 64. My dad had a bad heart, got the eyelid surgery for OPMD, and used a walker since his late 60s. I didn’t get the test yet; however, I do choke often, and my eyelids do droop a little. What are your thoughts on taking testosterone to offset the muscle girdling? I

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have a pacemaker that was installed in January 2024. This is a newer model that’s said to be safe for those who need an MRI. I have a neoplasm that was recently discovered in the parotid gland on the right side of my head. The doctors at a referral hospital attempted to do a biopsy on the mass in the center of the gland. But the biopsy failed as the tissue samples were only obtained from benign tissue surrounding the neoplasm, not from the mass. My doctor doesn’t want to attemp

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a very healthy and active 74-year-old woman, and I’m also quite proactive with my health. I get bone scans done every two years and have osteopenia in both my hips and spine.

These scans also showed osteopenia, but in my wrists (which were never previously scanned), I have severe osteoporosis. With the severe compr

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’ve been on Zepbound for about eight months. I’ve had fantastic results as far as weight loss, and I’m building muscle back. The problem is that I’ve constantly had to push back on increasing my dose. I started at 2.5 mg, then 5 mg, then 7.5 mg. My body couldn’t handle 7.5 mg, so I asked to go back to 5 mg. My weight loss slowed down, but I was still losing weight and was happy with this. With the 7.5-mg dose, I couldn’t eat anything, which meant that I always felt tired, couldn

DEAR DR. ROACH: My 82-year-old husband is unable to smell or taste. This has been the case since 2024, when he was hit by a car while out for a walk. He sustained a compression fracture to his spine. While he wasn’t knocked out, he did get thrown backward and sustained some trauma to his head. Since then, he’s had no sense of smell or taste. I see him drifting further and further into depression, and I believe it’s primarily because he no longer has the pleasure that is associated with taste. He
