By the way, doctor. I'm 72, with no history of heart trouble. But my cholesterol is in the 220s, and I have been taking Lipitor for three years. I am thinking about buying a home defibrillator, primarily for myself but also for any emergency (although my wife is 52 and in excellent health). What's your advice?

Ask the doctor. I've read that defibrillators are being placed on airplanes and in other public places. They cost just a few thousand dollars, so I was thinking about buying one for my home. Is that a good idea?问问医生。我读到过除颤器正被安装在飞机和其他公共场所。它们只需几千美元，所以我在考虑给家里买一台。这是个好主意吗？

Ask the doctors. I'm in my 70s and my doctor says I'm slightly anemic. He says that puts me at risk of heart problems, maybe even heart failure. Why? What's the best way for me to treat my anemia? Eating more steak doesn't seem like a good idea.问问医生吧。我70多岁了，我的医生说我有点贫血。他说这会让我有患心脏问题的风险，甚至可能会导致心力衰竭。为什么呢？治疗我的贫血最好的方法是什么？多吃牛排似乎不是个好主意。

On call. I am pretty healthy for a 73-year-old, but my cholesterol is 280, and my doctor wants me to take Lipitor. I'm willing to do so, but I need to know what tests I should have to be sure I'm not getting side effects. What do you suggest?随时待命。作为一名73岁的老人，我还算比较健康，但我的胆固醇是280，我的医生想让我服用立普妥。我愿意这么做，但我需要知道我应该做哪些检查，以确保我不会出现副作用。你有什么建议？

I'm a 67-year-old with prostate problems. I asked my primary care doctor to send me to a urologist, but I was surprised that he picked a woman urologist. I feel uncomfortable about making an appointment with her. What's your advice?我是一名67岁患有前列腺问题的男性。我让我的初级保健医生把我转诊给一名泌尿科医生，但让我惊讶的是，他给我选了一位女泌尿科医生。我对预约看她的门诊感到不自在。你有什么建议？

By the way, doctor. I'm one year into menopause and really bothered by hot flashes and vaginal dryness. I'd like to take hormone replacement therapy, but I'm worried about increasing my risk of getting breast cancer. My doctor said I can take HRT at a dose longer than what's usually prescribed. What do you think?

By the way, doctor... I'm 68, and I've been taking Viagra for about a year now. The drug is working for me, but I'm always a little scared that I am going to give myself a heart attack. Should I be?顺便问一下，医生……我68岁了，服用伟哥大概有一年了。这药对我有效，但我总是有点担心会引发心脏病。我应该担心吗？

By the way, doctor. I am 68 years old and healthy, but over the past year, I've found myself less and less able to get enough sleep. My doctor is reluctant to prescribe sleeping pills, but I feel desperate to get my eight hours, and I'm tired most days. Can you recommend a sedative?顺便问一下，医生。我68岁，身体很健康，但在过去一年里，我发现自己越来越难以获得充足的睡眠。我的医生不愿意开安眠药，但我非常渴望能睡足八小时，而且大多数日子我都很疲惫。你能推荐一种镇静剂吗？

By the way, doctor... I'm 78 and have a long history of heart valve trouble - a leaky aortic valve, to be exact. But now it looks like my creaky left hip needs to be replaced. My husband is worried that my heart won't be able to take the operation. My doctors think I should be okay. Who's right?
