I grew concerned that I might take a turn for the worse.
I did not want to become sicker, because then surely I would be at death door.
My friend took me to the doctor. I told the doctor I thought I had come down with a cold.
When the doctor saw me, she immediately wanted to run some tests.
She said that medical tests would help her discover why I was sick.
The doctor also asked when I had my last physical. I did not get yearly checkup.

Then the nurse drew my blood. She used a needle to take a small amount of blood from my arm.
She sent it to a laboratory for tests. The nurse also took my temperature.
She used a thermometer to measure my body temperature.
