For the past 10 years he has been chronically tired. Several years ago, at a cost of $250, he had a complete physical exam by a reputable doctor. The doctor said his tiredness was psychological. My son has been happily married for two years and enjoys his work, eats well, takes vitamins, but is exhausted every day. He also has a lump on the side of his thigh the size of a walnut that has been there several years. It doesn't seem to grow and hurts only when you press it. The doctor took an X-ray and said it doesn't show. Have you any opinion as to what causes his constant tiredness? DEAR READER: I'm glad your son had a good examination, but perhaps he needs another one after all of these years. Some medical problems become easier to diagnose after they have existed a while. There are many medical reasons for fatigue. In the early 1900s, when tuber­ culosis was the leading cause of death, the first thing a doctor thought about when a patient had fatigue was tuber­ culosis. That is an uncommon cause for fatigue today. But endocrine disorders, such as a low thyroid, poor nutrition and a host of diseases, do cause fatigue. Nevertheless, about eight out of 10 people who have chronic fatigue have it from psychological factors. That often means a lack of goals or enough enjoyment in life, in short, not enough to look forward to with reasonable ex­ pectations. I think a neglected aspect of fatigue is inactivity. A person who sits all day, watches TV in the evening, then goes to bed, is usually tired. He doesn't need more rest, but he needs activity. Many people who have office- or desk-bound jobs have the same problem every evening. They come home tired and sit down or even have a drink. They need a good walk or some physical activity that gets their body machinery going and restores energy. I have discussed the problem of fatigue more fully in The Health Let­ ter, Special Report 31, "What Fatigue Means," which I am sending you. Others who want this issue can send 75 cents with a long, stamped, self- addressed envelope for it to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 19622, Ir­ vine, CA 92713. Habits are also important. Cigarette smoking is a factor in fatigue for some. So is alcohol. DEAR DR. LAMB: My husband, age 49, does not play tennis but he does suf­ fer from tennis elbow and has for over a year. We've tried resting the joint, taking aspirin, moist heat and finally going to thetloctors for a shot or two of cortisone. The cortisone naturally reduces the discomfort dramatically, but the problem returns with very little stress to the arm. I recall you once write a column on tennis elbow and, as I remember it, you mentioned wearing an arm band around the forearm. Is that correct? DEAR READER: It would be helpful to isolate what is causing your husband's tennis elbow. It is true that violin players, plumbers, woodchop- pers or others who stress the muscle attachments below and around the elbow can develop this condition. Yes, you are asking about an arm brace. Surely if you have watched ten­ nis on TV you have seen them. It looks like an elastic band. You might get one in a sporting goods store. They help minimize the shock to the muscle at­ tachments. Also, your husband could get some help by exercises to strengthen the forearm muscles. He should also stretch his arm muscles well before and after using them.

Inc 26 "My Bill Is very bright -- but not so bright that he's been able to'figure out how to work the VCR." By James iacoby Newspaper Enterprise Association A chance to set trap South had such a strong hand that he made an artificial jump shift to three clubs after North had made a one-spade response. The jump shift showed 19 or more points and was forcing to game. When North raised to four clubs. South was impelled into slam. Not that he minded. After all. if the diamond finesse wasn't working, maybe the heart finesse would be successful. And that's what happened. Declarer won the club ace. played a spade to the king and took a finesse in diamonds. West won the king and con­ tinued clubs. Declarer drew trumps, got to dummy with a spade, and took the heart finesse. When that held, he claimed the rest of the tricks. The West player probably still doesn't know that he almost surelv could have set the slam. All he had to do was pull a wrong card That is face­ tious. but do you see the trap that a shrewd West can set for declarer? Go back to trick three, when South played a diamond to the queen. Just let West casually play low. Which of us. as South, would not now return to dummy and play another diamond? After all. surely the diamond king is with East. Remember the concept. When declarer has a very strong hand and very few entries iii dumrnV. dori't be in a hurry to take your sure trump trick on the first lead of the suit. May­ be you can persuade the declarer to waste his only remaining entry to take what you know to be a losing finesse.
