Recently I saw a 72-year-old woman with metastatic uterine cancer in consultation. She was receiving palliative chemotherapy and our team felt she would benefit from short-term inpatient rehabilitation. Within a week of this consult, I saw an 81-year-old woman with an acute myocardial infarction. My team elected to start her on lipid-lowering therapy.
