- Good afternoon, doctor.
- Hello, Sir. How may I help you?
- I haven't had a check-up for ages, but now I have caught some strange disease, and I don't know what to do. All the symptoms look very dangerous, maybe, will you recommend me some good syrup or effective drops?
- Ok, but tell me some details, please.
- I feel dizzy all the time, once I even fainted at work. My secretary had to pour cold water right on my expensive Gucci suit.
- Did somebody take your pulse?
- Yes. If you examine my chest, you will hear that my heart is throbbing!
- Have you ever had problems with you blood pressure?
- No, doctor. The only problems I had with pressure were at work!
- And what about your digestive system? Do you have a diarrhea or, maybe, you vomit.
- No, doctor, not at all. Because I hopelessly lost my appetite, and saliva is not produced at all. I don't remember when I ate for the last time. I lost 5 kilos and I'm so skinny now that even some big crow can steal me.
- Does anything else disturb you?
- Yes, sure it does! I've got aching muscles, and I feel so weak that even my legs tremble.
- Go on.
- I sleepwalk as well, and my lungs don't work properly. I can hardly breathe.
- It seems to me, I'm close to solving the mystery, but can you recall any especially strange symptoms?
- Yes, I can. I've got a few. A have a fever every time I see something red and my heels don't touch the ground, I feel as if I had a pair of wings behind me.
- Oh, that makes sense.
- What? Why are you smiling, doctor?
- Your disease is really contagious, very contagious.
- So, should I take some pills? Or maybe just painkillers? Is this some new epidemic of flu or pneumonia?
- No, no. This disease is veeery old. And here is your prescription.
- What? ‘To sleep and to buy some flowers for a person you are madly in love with'? Doctor… But doctor…
- Next, please!
