| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[2] Good morning Doctor. |
| (PS2DF) |
[3] Well now, what can I do for you today? ... |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[4] I've been coming for sh three weeks now. [5] ... And I came to ask the doctor if I could get H R T. And she took my blood pressure and it was too high |
| (PS2DF) |
[6] She chased you. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[7] so she didn't give me anything the first time, but she |
| (PS2DF) |
[8] Mhm. [9] The second time. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[10] The second time, it was a different doctor again, and she gave me tablets and I can't remember the name. |
| (PS2DF) | [laugh] |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[11] It was [...] I just took the last one on Saturday, and I then threw the |
| (PS2DF) |
[12] Aye. [13] The wee white ones, |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |

[19] Right. [20] Show us your muscles. [21] Let's see what you're doing to your poor old self. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[22] I don't know why I think maybe the, the tablets helped, but erm I was saying I was kind of having second thoughts whether I was wanting to go on the H R T or |
| (PS2DF) |
[23] No. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[24] No. |
| (PS2DF) |
[25] No chance. [26] No chance. [27] Not, not with your blood pressure up like that. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[28] No er well she didn't say much, but she [...] |
| (PS2DF) |
[29] Well, no chance I can tell you now. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[30] Whenever er |
| (PS2DF) |
[31] Just get yourself down. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[32] And I thought er and er I had wee tablets that you gave me a while ago, Brusdeximit |
| (PS2DF) |
[33] Mhm. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[34] And I was wondering maybe if I'd be better going back on them. |
| (PS2DF) |
[35] Aye, you'd be safer a lot safer on them. [36] And they won't er they won't fight with your blood pressure. [37] Here just let your arm [...] . |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[38] On second thought, it'd be [...] . [laugh] |
| (PS2DF) |
[39] Aye. [40] ... It's, it's amazing how many folk come up to see about it, and they, they decide eventually not to. [41] ... Doing fine. [42] You're fine but you'll need to stay on your wee tablets ... I'm afraid. [43] And er I think you can forget the H R T. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[44] I will, I felt maybe er when I came up to see, oh I was having all these heavy sweatings. [45] Just was it was really [...] |
| (PS2DF) |
[46] Mhm. [47] Mhm. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[48] pain up [...] sore back, so. [49] [laugh] And |
| (PS2DF) |
[50] Falling to bits. [51] [...] to bits [...] . |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[52] then I had another I had another wee problem that I'd been, I had been to see, and it was Doctor I had been, and the doctor that I saw the last time er I had three big bruises on my back, and she |
| (PS2DF) |
[53] Mhm. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[54] says I don't know what this is. [55] But this was a wee sort of lump that I had down at the bottom of my vagina. |
| (PS2DF) |
[56] Right. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[57] [...] I don't know whether you would call it a lump or not, I said to her it was like a wee spot. |
| (PS2DF) |
[58] Mhm. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[59] So she, she says well I don't know what that is, she says. [60] So I'll send you to the hospital. [61] So I've to go on |

| (PS2DF) |
[66] Right. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) | [...] |
| (PS2DF) |
[67] Now ... have you got plenty of the wee tablets or are you finished? |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[68] No, I finished 'em. |
| (PS2DF) |
[69] Finished all that lot. [70] Right, Agnes. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[71] Finished them on Saturday. [72] Mm [...] That's how I was, I was saying [...] had been at the hospital, come back and says no, my |
| (PS2DF) |
[73] No. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[74] tablets are finished, I'd better go to the doc |
| (PS2DF) |
[75] No, you'd better. [76] You need to get that, need to keep that down because if you do go to the hospital, and they did decide to take that out, they would ne d they would check your blood pressure and they would chase you. [77] There's no way they would touch it at all. [78] [whispering] So [] |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[79] It's no, I don't really know cos the doctor says she didn't know what it was either. [80] Doctor seen it first, she thought I had pulled a hair and it was kind of septic |
| (PS2DF) |

| (PS2DF) |
[91] No. [92] Just, no. |
| Agnes (PS2DG) |
[93] much trouble or anything , but it was just the fact of it being there. |
| (PS2DF) |
[94] It's there. [95] It's there. [96] And it's always a worry when you don't know what's going on. [97] And the trouble is it can turn septic again, and put the whole thing sky high again. [98] But s what about your Dixevit Are you needing any more of them? |
