Full transcript
Thanks for coming in, Mr. Santos — your blood test confirmed chronic Hepatitis B, so let's go through what this means and the plan going forward.
Ay, nagulat talaga ako. Malala po ba ito? May gamot po ba na pwedeng ganap na magpagaling sa akin?
It's manageable, not curable in most cases. I'm referring you to a liver specialist at Sunshine Hospital, and we'll repeat your blood tests every six months.
Kailangan po ba palagi ipabakuna ang asawa ko at mga anak ko? Baka kasi nahawa na rin sila sa akin.
Your wife and children should get vaccinated, since it doesn't spread through casual contact — only through blood, sex, or from mother to baby during birth.
Pero po, ligtas pa rin ba kaming magkasabay kumain, gumamit ng parehong kubyertos, o yumakap sa mga anak ko?
No, you can't catch it from sharing plates, cups, or hugging — those normal daily activities carry no risk at all.
Kung sakaling kailangan ko ng gamot po, mahal po ba ito, at may masamang epekto po ba sa katawan?
If your liver tests stay mild, we'll just monitor you; only if there's active damage will we start antiviral tablets, which are taken daily.
Kailangan ko po bang mag-leave sa trabaho habang ginagamot ito, lalo na po't nagtatrabaho ako sa restaurant?
You don't need to stop working or change your diet drastically — just avoid alcohol, and come back for review in six months with your referral letter.
Salamat po, Doc. Mas kalmado na po ako ngayon, at susundan ko po ang lahat ng sinabi ninyo.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks

Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
