Jennifer has just returned from traveling abroad. She has been feeling sick and is at her doctor’s office for a check-up. Listen as she explains her symptoms and her doctor tries to diagnose the problem. Doctor: How long have you been feeling sick, Jennifer? Jennifer: Well, pretty much since I returned from India. Doctor: And that was how long ago? Jennifer: I got back 4 days ago. Doctor: What seems to be the problem? Jennifer: I’ve had a stomachache, fever, and some trouble going to the toilet. Doctor: Diarrhea? Jennifer: Yes. Doctor: We need to perform several tests to get to the bottom of the problem. Don’t worry though. I’m sure everything will be fine. Jennifer: Thanks. I’ve been so worried that it could be something serious. Doctor: Well, nothing is certain at this point. But whatever it is, I’m sure we’ll be able to fix it. Jennifer: So, what kind of tests do we need to do? Doctor: Blood, certainly. And urine. We’ll have to take a stool sample and analyze that as well. Jennifer: Sounds fun! When can we get the results back? Doctor: Quite soon actually. If we start the tests today, we should know before the weekend. Jennifer: Can you prescribe something for me now to help me feel better? Doctor: Until we have determined what the problem is, there’s no use in giving you medicine. Jennifer: What do you think is wrong with me? Doctor: It could be bacterial. Really though, with so many possible causes, we’ll just have to wait and see. Jennifer: So how should we start? Doctor: Here’s a cup and there’s the bathroom. 珍妮弗刚结束海外旅行回来。她一直觉得不舒服,现在正在医生的诊所里做检查。请听她解释自己的症状以及医生试着诊断出问题所在。 医生:珍妮弗,你觉得不舒服已经有多久了? 珍妮弗:嗯,大概是我从印度回来后开始的。 医生:那是多久以前? 珍妮弗:我4天前回来的。 医生:那有什么问题呢? 珍妮弗:我胃痛、发烧,还有上厕所有点问题。 医生:拉肚子吗? 珍妮弗:对。 医生:我们必须做几项检验把问题查清楚。但是不要担心,我确信不会有事的。 珍妮弗:谢谢。我一直很担心会是什么严重的问题。 医生:嗯,目前一切都还不确定,但不管是什么,我确信我们都有办法治疗。 珍妮弗:那么,我们需要做什么样的检验呢? 医生:验血是一定要的。还有尿液。我们还必须采一些粪便的样本来做分析。 珍妮弗:听起来还真有趣……我们什么时候可以得到结果呢? 医生:其实很快的。如果我们今天开始做检验,在周末之前应该就能知道结果。 珍妮弗:你现在能不能开些药给我,让我舒服一点? 医生:在我们还没确定是什么问题之前,开药给你是没有用的。 珍妮弗:你觉得我的问题会是什么? 医生:有可能是病菌引起的。但是有这么多可能的原因,我们只能先等一等,到时候再说。 珍妮弗:那么我们要从什么开始查起? 医生:这里有个杯子,卫生间就在那儿。
