Registering at the Medical Centre, Roman Road, March 13th
"Are you a smoker?"
"Well... no."
"No?"
"But ok, yes. But really only one a night. At most two."
"I'll put down yes"
"Ok. But I gave up"
"....You gave up smoking? So, a non-smoker."
"Yes.... But only since Saturday. Though that may not stick I'd say Yes - to smoker, not to non-smoker. Otherwise it's misleading, is it? No you're right put down...no? Though that's very recent so..."
"IS THERE ANY FAMILY HISTORY OF STROKE?"
