W: Next patient, please! ...Come in.
M: Morning, doctor. Sorry I''m a bit late, but I felt really awful when I got up.
W: Don''t worry. It''s Mr Barnes, isn''t it?
M: That''s right.
W: Is that B-A-R-N-E-S?
M: Yes, it is.
W: Right, now what seems to be the trouble?
M: Well, I''ve had this awful flu and a terrible cough.
W: I see. How long have you been feeling like this?
M: Oh, about three or four days, I suppose.
W: And have you been taking any medication?
M: Just the normal things. Aspirins, lemon and hot drinks, but it hasn''t done any good.
W: Are you a smoker?
M: No. I gave up three years ago.
W: Have you had a temperature?
M: Yes. For the last couple of days or so.
W: OK. I''ll just take a look at your chest. Take off your pullover and jacket please...Right. Now breathe in...and out slowly. And again. Good. Once more. That''s it. Pop your clothes back on.
M: Thank you.
W: Well, it looks as if you''ve got a touch of bronchitis. I''ll give you some cough mixture and a prescription for a course of antibiotics as well. Take one capsule every 8 hours for the next five days.
M: OK, Doctor. What about going to work?
W: No. You''ll have to spend a couple of days in bed till it clears up.
