D Right, so you have had the wheezing and the breathlessness for roughly
three weeks.
D And so you get these bouts of wheezing and shortness of breath every day?
P The first week there was only one I think, and then they started getting worse,
three, four times a week. It is not being able to get my breath that is really
worrying.
D And so the attacks, have they increased in the past two weeks?
P At any time, but they seem to be worse at night and in the morning.
D Have you noticed any change in the severity of the attacks, especially in the
morning?
P yes.
P Yes.
P No just tightness
D Ok. Have you had any infections recently like flu or sore throat or chest
infection?
P No.
D No aspirin?
P No.
P No.
D Everything ok at home?
D And... what about work? I see you are a civil servant. Any stress or problems
at work or anything like that?
P well, there has been a lot of changes going on and recently and I supposed I
am a bit anxious what with the mortgage and that.
D I see. And does the wheezing etc continue over the weekends?
D Ok. Let me make some general questions. Have you ever had anything like
this before?
P No, never.
P Erm...
P No. Nothing like that. This is the first time I have been ill in my life.
