M: | Dr. Wang, I called you last week to make an appointment. |
W: | Oh, yes. I got it from my nurse. What seems to be the problem? |
M: | I seem to be short of breath. |
W: | Do you have a cough? |
M: | Yes, I have a cough, but I also seem to wheeze a lot. |
W: | Is this a recent symptom, or have you had it for some time now? |
M: | I've had it for some time, Doctor. |
W: | Do you suffer from coughing fits or cough a lot? |
M: | Yes, a lot. |
W: | Do you bring up phlegm or is it a dry cough? |
M: | I bring up quite a bit of phlegm. I'm afraid I might have asthma. |
W: | What's the phlegm like? |
M: | What do you mean? |
W: | Can you describe the phlegm for me? What colour is it? Is it white, yellow or greenish, and is it foamy or sticky? |
M: | Yes, it's yellowish and feels kind of like jelly. |
W: | Does it have a strange smell or taste? |
M: | No, I don't think so. |
W: | Has there ever been blood in it? |
M: | Yes, just once I noticed some blood in it. |
W: | Have you taken any medication lately? |
M: | Yes, I was on something to thin my blood. |
