70
and tell me a bit more about
71
that i mean are you someone who has regular periods what's normal for you uh they're quite irregular
72
and quite light okay
73
and have they always been a regular uh no i had the coil fitted about a year ago um
74
so they were regular before that they were just really heavy is
75
that the Mirena coil okay and when's the last time you had a bleed with
76
that apart from today about seven weeks ago I think okay and is
77
that sort of the normal amount of time between your bleeds with the Mirena not really
78
it's longer than normal yeah okay and you mentioned
79
that before you had the coil put in you had quite
80
heavy periods did you have a diagnosis of anything like fibroids
81
or cysts at all that you're aware of have you had any ultrasounds
82
or scans before okay any previous pregnancies no have you had anything like this before this kind of
83
pain with bleeding um not apart from periods okay can i check are your smears up to date yeah
84
and have they all been normal yeah they've all been fine okay
85
and i'm just going to check as well because it could be relevant are you sexually active at the moment
86
okay and is that with a regular partner
87
or casual partners uh with my boyfriend okay
88
and um when's the last time that you had a partner
89
that was different to your current boyfriend uh about three years ago okay
90
and how long have you been with your boyfriend for my current boyfriend two years two years okay
91
and have you ever had a sexual health screening before yes i have okay
92
and when was the most recent time that you had
93
that about two years ago when we got together lovely
94
and was that normal yeah that was fine fine
95
and have you ever had a sexually transmitted infection before yeah about three years ago
96
and which infection was that I had chlamydia
97
and did you get antibiotics in that I did okay perfect
98
and and can I just check just to make sure
99
when was the last time
100
that you had sex with your partner about three days ago now okay
101
and I know you have the my arena room
102
which would protect you against pregnancy can I to use condoms as well
103
or just some irena no just coil okay okay thanks for answering those questions
104
so i think what i'm going to do is just summarize back to you to make sure
105
that we've not missed anything here so you've described a pain
106
that started a couple of days ago kind of low down in your tummy
107
and on the left hand side it went away
108
but then it's come back today
109
and it's stabbing it's been up to a nine out of ten severity it's very uncomfortable you vomited with it
110
and you felt quite lightheaded when you're standing up
111
and you've also noticed some sort of vaginal spotting as well
112
which is a bit out of sync with what's normal for you um
113
and you have a regular partner
114
that you've been with for a couple of years is
115
that right yeah okay
116
and can i just check amy you said you've not had something particularly like this before
117
but did you have any thoughts of what this could be um at first
118
i thought maybe just a period pain um i'm not sure
119
if it's maybe something worse like a cyst or something like
120
that okay yeah i mean that's a reasonable thought with the pain being done there
121
and on one side and sometimes people have something they're particularly worried about
122
when they come in is there anything that you want to tell me
123
or ask me about any worries you might have I've just had two days off work already
124
and I can't really afford to take any more time off
125
so I just really want to kind of get to the bottom of it
126
and find out what's what's wrong yeah of course
127
and obviously coming into A &E we're here to help you to figure out what's going on
128
and to make sure you're comfortable was there anything else you had in mind
129
that you wanted us to help you with today uh just to find out what it is okay
130
fine so amy i've not met you before
131
so you've given me a really good idea about what's been happening in the last few days um
132
but i just want to check things before that
133
and a bit about your background
134
so can i ask do you have any other medical conditions
135
at all no do you take any regular medications no
136
i don't are you allergic to anything are there any conditions
137
that run in your family at all i don't think so no and specifically any kind of gynecological conditions
138
uh no okay and your living situation
139
so who do you live with at the moment i just live with my boyfriend okay
140
and you mentioned you're a bit worried about having time off work what is it
141
that you do for work i'm an accountant okay
142
and can i ask um do you smoke at all uh yeah
143
i do yeah how many a day probably about 10 a day okay
144
and how old were you when you started smoking uh 19.
145
okay
146
and do you take any drugs at all any recreational drugs
147
do you drink alcohol a little bit not a lot usually just
148
if i go out with friends or something like that okay
149
and how much would you have if you went out with friends maybe like two
150
or three drinks like vodka tonics or something like that okay
151
so perfect do you give me a good idea there about what's going on amy
152
so what i'm going to do i'm just going to summarize back to you to make sure
153
that we've not missed anything
154
so you've described quite severe lower abdominal pain on the left -hand side
155
that started a couple of days ago
156
and got worse today you vomited you're feeling lightheaded
157
and you've also had some spotting bleeding otherwise you're generally in good health you don't take any regular medications is
158
that right yes is there anything else
159
that you'd like to add I don't think so okay
160
and do you have any questions for me no okay and that case
161
Amy that's all for today okay thank you your time thank you today
162
i spoke with amy brooks a 27 year old woman who's presented to the accident
163
and emergency department with a two -day history of progressive left lower quadrant pain this pain is sharp severe
164
and stabbing she's also been feeling nauseous and has vomited
165
and has been feeling lightheaded understanding amy has also experienced some vaginal bleeding for the last couple of days
166
which she describes as light spotting.
167
She has a Mirena IUD in situ and hasn't had a bleed for the last seven weeks which is unusual for her.
168
She has a regular male partner and last had a sexual health screen two years ago which was negative.
169
Amy has no other medical conditions and takes no regular medications.
170
She lives with her partner.
171
Her main concern is getting back to work and she worries that this could be something like an ovarian cyst.
172
The most important differentials to consider today would be an ectopic pregnancy
173
or ovarian pathology such as ovarian cyst rupture or ovarian torsion.
174
In order to complete my assessment today, I would perform an abdominal examination, check vital signs and perform a urinary pregnancy test.
175
For this patient I would consider referring them urgently to the gynaecology team for their assessment
176
and management and their consideration of further imaging.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
