Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical
information a doctor might give us? This fascinating information came to
light as a result of a study carried out by Utrecht University. What is even
more interesting is that almost half of what we think we remember is
wrong.
Why do you think this is? Well, it’s not as complicated as you may think.
You see, going to the doctor fills most people with anxiety and when we
are really nervous and stressed we are more likely to focus on the diagnosis
rather than the treatment. Therefore, we know what is wrong with us but
have no idea what to do about it.
Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always
write down any important information. What would be even better is, if
your doctor agreed, to record your consultation. This way, you can replay
the advice at home, where you are more likely to absorb it. If you believe
the situation is serious or you’re really worried, seek the help of a family
member. Just ask them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be
absolutely sure about what the doctor has told you and avoid falling into
the same trap that most people do.
