                       1.    Doctor :    OK, how long have you had the symptoms?
                       2.    Patient :   Oh, I’m not sure, about two or three days.

                       3.    Doctor :    And how do you feel in general?
                       4.    Patient :   I feel kind of fatigued and dizzy. I don’t have a lot of energy and I
                                         sleep a lot.

                       5.    Doctor :    I see, what’s your appetite like?
                       6.    Patient :   Um, I’ve got a bit of indigestion. And I also feel kind of sick when I
                                         eat oily or fried foods.
                       7.    Doctor :    Do you have any problems with your stomach?

                       8.    Patient :   Um, usually I have a slight pain in my upper belly. But that comes
                                         and goes before I eat meals. But when I eat, I usually feel better.

                       9.    Doctor :    OK, do you have any problem with urination?
                       10.  Patient :    Um, I think it’s OK. But the color of my stool seems to be kind of
                                         dark.

                       11.  Doctor:      Is your period regular?
                       12.  Patient:     Um, yeah.
                       13.  Doctor:      Do you have painful periods?

                       14.  Patient:     Well, I’ve had to take painkillers, but that’s happened gradually
                                         over the past six months.
