Doctor's Diagnosis
Physician
Your test results have come in.
I'm afraid the prognosis isn't good.
You have a long road to recovery.
We have several options to discuss.
The blood test came back negative.
Patient
I don't understand what this means.
Am I going to need surgery?
Is it good news or bad?
When will the tests results come in?
How long do I have to stay in the hospital?
What is the success rate?
Are they going to run more tests?
Is this a common problem for people my age?
I'd like to discuss other options.
I'm going to get a second opinion.
The transfusion was a success.
It looks like you're ready to go home.
I'd like to keep you here over night.
We'll know more in a few days.
You're not in the clear yet.
We've ruled out diabetes.
I'm hoping to get to the bottom of this soon.
