PROJECT

IN THE HOSPITAL

Y: Hi friend. What do you do here?

D: Hi Yosi. I will get medical exam, because every year I check at my state of health.

And you?

Y: I’m a Little sick. I want to see to the doctor because today I woke up with nauseous, I
can’t stop shivering and I’m too exhausted.

THE DOCTOR CALLED PATIENT DIEGO

V: Come in, sit down please.

D: Good morning Dr. Vasquez,

V: Tell me, what is your problema?

D: I have gained weight since 2016 and I don’t know why?

V: What is your diet? And do you do exercise?

D: I eat often fruit and salad. And sometimes I eat chicken or meat.

V: Wow! It’s strange. It’s probably that you have hypothyroidism, but you have to get a
blood test.

D: I got a blood test in another hospital. Here is my test. Please, can you explain?

V: Sure, no problem… I always advice people to remove the thyroid.

D: That doesn’t make sense to me. I’m not sure that it’s necessary.

V: Well in my opinion you should remove the thyroid but if you don’t want it. I think
the best idea for you is to take pills every eight hours during two months.

D: I will try and get back to you.

THE DOCTOR CALLED PATIENT YOSELIN

DL: Patient yoselin come in, sit down please. What happened?

Y: I feel tired, I can’t stop shivering. I have been vomiting for two hours.
DL: Are you get pregnant?

Y: No! Fort he moment I don’t want that.

DL: Have you been eating well these days?

Y: Sincerely, I haven’t been eating in my hours for five months.

DL: The symptoms are general. Please, I need more information. Are you stressed?

Y: Yes. Recently my father had a surgery.

DL: With the description of the symptoms and your mood I conclude that you have
secundary gastritis. For that you need to take eight pills during ten days.

Y: What? I could never do that.

DL: Well, so you must improve your meal hours. Another advice, you can use
alternative medicine. For example, acupunture.

Y: That makes a lot of sense for me. I will give it a try. Bye Doctor.

OUTSIDE THE CONSULTING ROOM

D: How did it go with the doctor?

Y: Good, he gave me different advices to my gastritis. I’m sick of feeling that way.

And what did you do when you left the consulting room?

D: I called in sick to work. But, I’m worried sick.

Y:Why?
D: I’m sick of my boss because he has been bossing me around all the time.

D: And How about you?

Y: I have a lot of sick days. The doctor told me to get some rest.

D: In my case my doctor told me to a lot of wáter.

Y: OH...It’s later. See you Diego.

D: Bye Yoselin. Thanks for all.
