“以前来这儿就诊过吗？”当我出现在医生诊室时，接待员问道。

2

“没来过。”我回答道。

“请坐。”她指着一张椅子说，“填好表后交给我。医生一会儿就来。”

一开始我对自己所在的房间没有在意，虽说“医生一分钟后就到。”但似乎已经不止一分钟了，于是我便开始环顾四周。另一面墙上有一扇窗户可以俯瞰长满某种绿色灌木的庭院。我还注意到在天花板和墙壁之间的角落里结了一层薄薄的蜘蛛网。

“你感觉还好吗？”护士从门缝里瞅着我问道。“医生现在正给另一个病人看病，”她带着歉意的微笑，“但他马上会给你看的。”说完便消失在门后了。

我不明白为什么得等这么长时间。一周前就已经预约好具体时间，我可是有备而来的。131.Whatwasthedoctordoingbythetimetheauthorwenttothehospitalintime?focus1text

“早安。”一个穿白大褂的医生打断了我的思绪。“你感觉如何？”

8

“早安。我很好。谢谢。”我言不由衷地说，因为我一定是身体不舒服才来诊所的。

地板上铺着蓝色地毯。我讨厌这种颜色。墙上的几幅画倒很漂亮——是群山和树木的山水画。

回到前台我焦躁不安地思考着。我可承受不了这么长时间不工作。这笔医疗费到哪儿去筹借呢？还有没有别的解决办法呢？手术有必要吗？27“初诊费二百元，X光片一百八十元，总共三百八十元。”接待员说道。

早知道会被医生破坏心情，我根本就不会去就诊。但能怎么办呢？疼痛毕竟是疼痛啊，我总得止痛吧。我在最近的一家药店花了四十元买了药，这样一共花了四百二十元，最终结果只是让我知道了，如果我愿意的话就能做手术。25focus1text2.Text:APainfulVisit31

两个月后，我碰巧遇到了我的波兰朋友，他是名外科整形医生。在你一言我一语的交谈中，我顺便跟他提到了我的疾病以及在当地就诊的经历。

32“你用不着做手术，”他看了看我的左脚说。“你只需要一个支架。”Translation

在等待我的支架从波兰寄来期间，我的止痛药用完了，于是便又去找那位医生想重新开个处方。

正如波兰的一句谚语所说，“越陷越深”。我已经陷入难以置信的境地——满脑子都是问号：为什么我非得做手术呢，如果我并不需要的话？为什么我非得花费八千元呢，如果十元就能解决问题？为什么我一定要用四十元的药呢，如果我能用五元的药？为什么我非得付初诊费呢，如果我不能确定会去复诊的话？为什么？为什么？为什么呢？
