Medicine
By Dr. Alan Merin
Last week, we began a
discussion on asthma, which
is defined as reversible
bronchoconstriction. Cold
air, pollens, and infections
can make a susceptible
person wheeze.
Incredibly, drugs can
precepitate wheezing,
aspirin can cause nasal
polyps and severe asthma.
In general, asthmatics are
told to avoid aspirin
because roughly 10% react
badly when given the drug.
Drugs related to asthma can
also be a problem, this
includes Indocin, Motrin,
Nalfon and Torrjax, Tylenol
and Darvon are unsually
well tolerated.
Food additives, the
tartrazine will cause
broncho constriction. Food
preservatives the potassium
metabisulfite, sodium
bisulfite and sodiurA sulfite
are also possible culprits. •
Wheezing can follow
ingestion of salads, fresh
fruit, potatoes, shellfish,
and wine, that contain
these preservatives.
Beta blockers can also
stimulate asthma. These are
great drugs for
hypertension, angina, and
glaucoma, but eye drops
like Timoptic, Betagan and
Betoptic can cause
shortness of breath.
Be sure to tell your
opthalmologist if you have
any breathing difficulties.
It's hard 10 irrjagine that
rust eye drops can effect
the lungs!
Antihypertensives like
propranolol, sectrolj
•tenormin and corgard can
be real problems when you
consider the large dosages
sometimes required for
blood pressure control.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
by
Albert H. Hoefelmeyer
At a time when the
men and women in our
armed forces are facing
their greatest test, we
at home are facing a
test as well. Our test
is to maintain our
unity and resolve, as
our troops are doing in
the Persian Gulf.
We don't want Saddam
Hussein to take this
country's tolerance for
anti-war demonstrators
as a signal he should
wait out our resolve in
a long and bloody war.
I'm outraged at the
brutal treatment of our
P.O.W.'s And I'm
saddened to see the
media give so much
attention to the small
number of anti-war
pro testers who have.
sprung into action. It
seems that every time a
few protesters pick up
their signs, the
cameras swarm around
them, and they end up
on the news.
Our soldiers have
said that they have a
job to do and are going
to get it done. I feel
I have a job to do,
too. And that's to
stand up in strong
support of our troops.
I want them to know
I and the American
people are very proud
of them. We are all
inspired by their
bravery.
Thousands of
American newspapers are
reaching our troops
everyday and I want our
troops to know that
hold them
thoughts and
every c'iy.

prayers

TO QUIT OR NOT TO QUIT?
—THAT IS THE QUESTION
To quit your job or
not to quit your
job--is the question if
you have been the
recipient of an offer
of pay to quit your
job.
The softening of the
these
methods
to
streamline their
personnel in order to
reduce operating expen-
ses and or increase pro

There are many ways
these two options can
take effect and there
are many personnel to
which they can be
offered. While employ-
ees near retirement are
usually viewed as the
ideal candidates, young
and old alike can be
put into the position
of pondering the ques-
t i on.
Some questions one
should keep in mind
when faced with such
a situation are: Why is
the company paying me
to quit? What will I
have to give up? If I
accept, will I have to
change any short or
long range plans?
Many of these offers
can be very enticing,
but keep in mind that
career and financial
stakes are involved.
