      There has been a lot of discussion by the Poskim on the question of when one can only fast either on Tsom Gedaliah or on Yom Kippur. However I have always thought that this discussion is theoretical. Surely a person who for medical reasons would not be able to fast on Yom Kippur if he fasted a week earlier (or in some years six days), would be forbidden to fast on any fast day.
