Patient : Hello, Mrs. Marwell.
Doctor : Hello, Mrs. Doren. How do you feel?
Patient : I don’t feel well. I have a high fever and a headache.
Doctor : Let me take your temperature.
Patient : OK.
Doctor : It is 39 degrees Celsius. Your temperature isn’t
normal. We should give you some injections here.
Patient : I think you should. I feel like I am burning up.
Doctor : When you have a high fever, you should stay at home
and take a long rest. You should have warm
showers, okay?
Patient : Also, my throat isn’t well.
Doctor : Open your mouth, please.
Patient : Aaaa.
Doctor : It looks red. You have a sore throat. You shouldn’t drink cold water or acidic drinks. You
should get some medicine. Here is your prescription. You need more vitamins, too. So you
had better eat fruit and vegetables.
Patient : Is there anything else I should do?
Doctor : You should drink lots of water. This is good for your sore throat and runny nose. Also, you
had better keep your body warm and sleep well.
Patient : OK, thank you very much.
