Question 07/22/20 5:44 PM EDT
I’m going to be an Accounting Clerk at Smith, Stevens, Stewart, Silver & Company. I’ll be helping a more experienced accountant with her clients, and then eventually I’ll get more responsibility, and build my own client list. I start in two weeks–I’m really excited!
That is great.

Thanks.
When was your last physical exam?
Question 07/22/20 5:45 PM EDT
Let’s see . . . I had two doctor’s appointments earlier this year. About five months ago, I came in here for a check-up, and the nurse practitioner got me on metformin. Then a few weeks later I saw a gynecologist for a pap smear.
What did your gynecologist say?
Question 07/22/20 5:45 PM EDT
She said everything looked good, except that I had PCOS, which the nurse here had said was possible. She started me on birth control, and it seems to be helping things.
How often do you take birth control?
Question 07/22/20 5:48 PM EDT
I take it every morning, with breakfast.
What is the name of the birth control pill you took?
Question 07/22/20 5:49 PM EDT
They’re called Yaz.
Has your menstrual cycle improved since taking Yaz?
Question 07/22/20 5:50 PM EDT
Now that I’m on the pill I’m getting my period every month.
That is great. I am glad you are having your period every month.
Empathize 07/22/20 5:50 PM EDT
Thanks.
How long have you had asthma.
Question 07/22/20 5:51 PM EDT
I’ve had asthma a long time. . . since I was really little.
What age were you diagnosed with asthma?
Question 07/22/20 5:51 PM EDT
My doctor told me when I was pretty little… I think I was about two and a half? I used to have a lot of trouble with asthma attacks back then.
I am sorry about the experience.
Empathize 07/22/20 5:52 PM EDT
Thanks.
How do you manage your asthma?
Question 07/22/20 5:52 PM EDT
I try to avoid things that give me breathing problems, but when my asthma starts to act up, I just use my inhaler.
What are your triggers for asthma?
Question 07/22/20 5:53 PM EDT
Being around cats is the worst, but dust and running up stairs can make my breathing bad, too. I haven’t had a full asthma attack in years, though.
It is important to stay away from triggers.
Educate 07/22/20 5:54 PM EDT
Thanks for telling me.
What happens when you are around dust?
Question 07/22/20 5:54 PM EDT
I used to have a reaction when I was in a dusty house for a long time. . . I would get allergies, like sneezing and stuff, and then my asthma would act up. But that hasn’t happened since I got my daily inhaler.
What inhaler do you use?
Question 07/22/20 5:59 PM EDT
The daily inhaler is Flovent, and the rescue inhaler is Proventil.
How often do you use flovent?
Question 07/22/20 6:00 PM EDT
Twice a day.
When did you most recently use the flovent inhaler?
Question 07/22/20 6:01 PM EDT
I use my Flovent inhaler two times a day.
When did you last use your inhaler?
Question 07/22/20 6:03 PM EDT
I used my Flovent inhaler this morning–I have to take it twice a day. My albuterol. . . I’ve maybe used it twice since I came in with those asthma problems. Once three months ago, and before that it had been months, too.
How much Albuterol do you use?
