Come in,please.

I'm Carl Matthews.

Have a seat. What seems to be the problem?

I've lost a little weight recently. And I don't seem to have too much energy.

My head and stomach were killing¹ me yesterday. I might have had a fever. And I thought I ate something bad because I had the runs.

Everything was fine with your last checkup 3 months ago. Are you eating OK? Did you bring anything up?

I'm eating fine,more or less. Last night I thought I was going to vomit².

Did you sleep well?

A little fitfully sometimes. This morning I felt too sick to even get out of bed.

Everything seems to be OK. Any other symptoms?

No,nothing I can think of. I must say that things have been quite hectic³ around the office recently.

I think you might have a touch of the flu that's going around. And you seem a little tired. I'll give you a flu shot and I recommend you take some vitamin supplements. Try to take it easy at work for a while,too.

Thanks,Doctor!
