Lesson 23 Key Conversation I Am Not Feeling Up to Par

Dr. Browne: Hello, Mr. Jones. What brings you here today?

Mr. Jones: I haven't been feeling very well.

Dr. Browne: I see. What exactly are your symptoms?

Mr. Jones: I seem to be short of breath lately. I've been feeling tired for the last three days, and I've got a horrible headache that won't go away.

Dr. Browne: I'll need to check your vital signs. Then I'll draw some blood.

Mr. Jones: How long will that take?

Dr. Browne: Not long.

Dr. Browne: Here are your test results.

Mr. Jones: Am I going to get well?

Dr. Browne: I'll prescribe some medicine for you, and you'll be feeling up to par soon.

Mr. Jones: So it isn't serious?

Dr. Browne: Don't worry, Mr. Jones. You won't drop dead tomorrow!
