Unit 20 Health
What's the matter?
Conversation 1
Are you OK?You don't look very well.
No.I know.I've got an awful cold.Oh,no.How long've you had that?
For a few days now.
Well.maybe you should take a day off work or something.
No.I just need to get a good night's sleep tonight.then I'll be OK.
Conversation 2
You look terrible.Are you all right?
No,not really,I've got a terrbile headache.
How come?Have you not been well?
No.no.I've just had a really stressful day at work.That's all.
Well,Maybe you should go and have a lie down or something.
No.it's all right.I just need some aspirin.then I'll be OK.
2.While you listen
At the doctor's
It was a pint you wanted,wasn't it?
Yeah,cheers.Do you want a cigarette?Yeah,thanks.Oh,I need this.
Have you had a bad week or something?Yeah,
I've been really busy just trying to catch up with work after last week.
Oh,yeah?I was ill all last week.It was awful.I had this terrible flu.
I couldn't sleep.I was sweating all through the night.
and I'd get up in the morning and my whole body would be stiff and aching.
It was terrible.I thought I was going to die.Honestly,it was awful.Yeah?
So I rang the doctor and he just said he didn't have any appointments till this Tuesday,
so I said,What good is that?I'll probably be better by then-or dead!
So he said,Well,you don't need to see me,then,and put the phone down.
I couldn't believe it.Doctors these days are just so unhelpful.Yeah.
You know,my mum...she's seventy
and the other day she was coming home from the shops and she slipped and fell over
and when she work up the following day.she had a really sore back.
She cold hardly move.She rang the doctor to ask him to come out,
but he wouldn't.so then she had to go all the way to the surgery by herself.
Then,when she got there,she had to wait around for about an hour
with all these really ill people coughing and sneezing and spreading their germs.
When she finally saw the doctor,he looked her over for about ten seconds
and he just told her to go home and lie down for a few days.
That was it!No pain-killers,no physiotherapy,nothing!
And then on top of all that,he told her she should maybe lose some weight.
No.Yeah!And then two days later,she got this nasty chest infection,
which she probably picked up in the waiting room.
so she went back and this time he just told her to take it easy and drink lots of water,
She wanted some kind of medicine,
but he said it wouldn't work for some reason.I don't know!
It seems as if we pay all these taxes so we can have a free service,
but all we really get from them is all this advice about giving up smoking,
getting more exercise,cutting down on fatty food
and anything else which makes life worth living.Doctors?
They treat you as if you're two years old!
I know...do you want another cigarette?Well..
I shouldn't really.I'm trying to give up.Oh,all right.Just one last one!
