If you blinked – if you were on vacation, buying school supplies for the kids or moving your college student into their dorm – you just missed the most important week of the 2024 campaign thus far. Maybe the most important week until the Iowa caucuses in January.
DEAR HARRIETTE: This year has been challenging for me. I started having heart palpitations and couldn't figure out why. After a bunch of tests, the doctor could not necessarily pinpoint the root cause of my problems, but he did tell me to stop drinking coffee because it seems to make my heart race. The thing is, I absolutely LOVE coffee, and I haven't been able to follow my doctor's orders. I do feel my heart racing sometimes after I drink it, but I still can't help myself. I don't want to create a major health problem for myself. I stopped doing the other things that the doctor warned me about. Why can't I keep just one vice? — Addicted to Coffee

DEAR HARRIETTE: I recently made the difficult decision to sever ties with my sibling due to ongoing disrespectful behavior toward me.
Dear Doctors: Sometimes when I get nervous, my stomach will knot up and start to ache. Sometimes I even get diarrhea, which is embarrassing. Why does that happen? Should I see a doctor? I'd like to know about any natural remedies that might help, and also any medications.
