They certainly do.

36_128
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_130
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_132
Okay. Okay. And have there been any times over the last four years that you've noticed any significant changes in your symptoms? For example, have there been any times when things have been better for you?
question
communication behavior
36_134
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_136
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_138
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_140
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_142
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_144
Right. And how were you tummy symptoms then?
question
communication behavior
36_146
Right. Okay.
other
communication behavior
36_148
Right. Right.
other
communication behavior
36_150
Right. That's interesting.
other
communication behavior
36_152
And are there any times when your-your tummy symptoms bother you more? Seem particularly bad?
question
communication behavior
36_154
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_156
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_158
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_160
Uh-huh.
other
communication behavior
36_162
Right. So you notice it's a bit worse when your husband's not around? Okay.
reflection
communication behavior
36_164
Right. I know you've been seeing Dr. Brown about this for the last few years.
other
communication behavior
36_166
What is it that he's said that he thinks might be wrong with you?
question
communication behavior
36_168
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_170
Right. Okay.
other
communication behavior
36_172
And what do you think?
question
communication behavior
36_174
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_176
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_178
And have you had any thoughts yourself about what you think might be causing it?
question
communication behavior
36_180
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_182
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_184
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_186
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_188
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_190
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_192
Oh, dear.
other
communication behavior
36_194
Right. Right.
other
communication behavior
36_196
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_198
So you're- you-you're kind of prodding, having a feel at night?
reflection
communication behavior
36_200
To see if you can feel anything?
question
communication behavior
36_202
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_204
Right. Okay.
other
communication behavior
36_206
Okay. So just to-to make sure that I've got the-the story straight, you've-you've seen Dr. Brown for a couple of years.
reflection
communication behavior
36_208
You've-you've tried a variety of medications-
reflection
communication behavior
36_210
- some prescribed, some-
reflection
communication behavior
36_212
- from the-the herbal shop. None of them really made a great deal of difference. You've had some investigations-
reflection
communication behavior
36_214
- but you perhaps feel you've not had enough investigations. And at times, you worry that this could be something quite serious like a-
reflection
communication behavior
36_216
- a cancer. Is that-- Have I got the-
reflection
communication behavior
36_218
- story right?
reflection
communication behavior
36_220
Okay.
other
communication behavior
36_222
Okay. Barbara, what was it that you were hoping that I'd do for you today?
question
communication behavior
36_224
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_226
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_228
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_230
Right. Right. So you were hoping that I'd send you for more tests?
question
communication behavior
36_232
Okay.
other
communication behavior
36_234
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_236
Right. Okay. Well, I think, Barbara, having-having heard your story, and heard about the symptoms, I'm not sure that actually sending you for more tests at this point would be the most useful thing that we could do for you. And the reason for that is because you've-you've had some of the main investigations in the last couple of years, and-and they've not shown anything. And your symptoms haven't really changed that much. So it's very unlikely that if we were to send you for more tests now that-that they'd show anything different than what we already know. So a bit-- I think it would be a waste of time for you to go for more tests.
other
communication behavior
36_238
Uh, no. I think that you clearly have pain, and clearly you have lots of physical symptoms, and they're clearly getting in the way of-
other
communication behavior
36_240
-your life and causing you a lot-
other
communication behavior
36_242
-of disability.
other
communication behavior
36_244
I guess- I guess the way I think about these things is that they're not necessarily either all in the mind or all in the body.
other
communication behavior
36_246
Sometimes these things can go together. Uh, I guess I'm thinking about how you told me that last year, when your son got married, uh, and you were very busy-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_248
- and quite happy, that somehow your symptoms seemed less.
other
communication behavior
36_250
And, uh, when your husband's away, which is something you don't like very much, sometimes, somehow, your symptoms then will seem greater. So, I guess what I'm wondering, Barbara, is if there might be some kind of a link with you between how you're feeling in your mind, and what's going on in your life, and-and how much your symptoms trouble you. Do you think that's a possibility?
reflection
communication behavior
36_252
Mm. I'm not saying that the pain's in your mind. Um, I guess what I'm saying is that sometimes the way that we feel, and the way that our lives are going, can impact how we notice our symptoms. Given that we've tried medication for you, and we've tried investigations, and we've drawn a blank really, with those, none of those have really helped you-
reflection
communication behavior
36_254
- I guess I'm wondering whether now it would be a good idea to try a different approach to your problems.
other
communication behavior
36_256
Well, I guess, thinking a little bit about those other areas of your life, um, uh, I'm thinking about the fact that over the last four years, your life's really changed. It seems to have really shrunk down.
other
communication behavior
36_258
And it sounds as though you're not doing lots of the things that you used to do. That you-
reflection
communication behavior
36_260
- used to get pleasure out of. Is that right?
reflection
communication behavior
36_262
Yeah.
other
communication behavior
36_264
Yeah. And I guess I wonder-- Uh, it sounds as though you've-you've dropped doing those things because you felt you couldn't do them, but I wonder if, in a funny way, what's happened is the fact that you're not doing those pleasurable things now, has kind of fed into you feeling-
reflection
communication behavior
36_266
- unhappy with the way that-that your life is at the moment. And-and I guess I wonder whether that can then make your symptoms worse for you.
reflection
communication behavior
36_268
Mm.
other
communication behavior
36_270
Well, I guess what I'd be wondering is whether one of the approaches we need to be using now is thinking about what you do with your life, and what you do with your day, and maybe trying to bring back some of those pleasurable things, you know, even if it's just meeting up-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_272
- with your-your female friends once a week, and whether actually doing those sorts of things might generally-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_274
- improve your quality of life. I'm also thinking about the tablets that you're taking.
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_276
And the fact that you-you seem to be taking quite a lot of them, and I'm wondering whether it's worth, though, sitting and looking at them and-and maybe trying to rationalize them a little bit, and really decide which are helping you, which are doing nothing, and which may actually be making some of your symptoms worse, I guess.
reflection
communication behavior
36_278
What would you think about trying that slightly different approach for say-say two or three months, just to see whether or not it makes any difference?
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_280
Right.
other
communication behavior
36_282
Mm-hmm.
other
communication behavior
36_284
Well, I guess if we- if we did decide to-to work together like this-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_286
- in this new approach, I'd be seeing you regularly. We can keep an eye on your symptoms, and if they change, then we can investigate as appropriate. But if they stay the same, then, you know, we can be-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_288
- pretty clear that there's nothing new happening that-that we're missing.
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_290
How would that sound?
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_292
I think that would be a good idea. I think we've only just begun to talk about it-
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_294
- and I think perhaps you need to have a bit of time to think about it and then perhaps come back. Perhaps if you're booked in for a double slot next week, and that would give us a good chunk of time to think about this new approach.
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_296
And perhaps if you could also bring your-your tablets in or-or make a list of them, we can look at what you're taking and perhaps go from there. How would that sound, Barbara?
therapist_input
communication behavior
36_298
Yeah.
other
communication behavior
36_300
Yes.
other
communication behavior
36_302
Yes. I think so.
other
communication behavior
36_304
I think that would be a good- a good start.
other
communication behavior
36_306
Yeah.
other
communication behavior
36_308
Okay. All right.
other
communication behavior
36_310
So, shall I see you again next week?
question
communication behavior
36_312
Okay. All right. Thank you, Barbara.
other
communication behavior
36_314
Bye-bye.
other

Kia ora, Ricky, welcome back.
other
communication behavior
37_2
Good. Are you okay today?
question
communication behavior
37_4
All right. So where we left last time, you were going away to think about a few things and to, um, develop some sort of plan of action. How'd it go? What were you up to?
question
communication behavior
37_6
Right.
other
communication behavior
37_8
Good to know, excellent.
