20 Mrs. Priya took Sameer for the lung function test and visited the clinic with his reports. I went through the report thoroughly and asked Sameer how the test was. Sometimes, the observer (the mother in this case) and the patient (Sameer here) may feel differently about the test and its outcome. It is a good practice to make the patient feel included in the process and connect with them especially when the patient is a child. Sameer had my full attention now as he started explaining how it all went. “You know, doctor uncle, I was able to blow up all the three balloons after the medications which I couldn’t before. I felt really good after the medicine! I continued where Sameer left, “Yes! That’s precisely What Can Sameer Be Allergic to? The toy that I hold to fall asleep can be the reason for my difficulty in breathing! – DR. SRIKANTA J T practicing consultant, author
