"Take a deep breath," Mina instructed the patient who sat before her. She listened to the patient's heartbeats through her stethoscope before putting it away to measure the pulse. The patient was a woman in her late twenties who was suffering from erratic heart beats which caused her blood pressure to fluctuate.
"Do you eat a lot of high cholesterol food?" she asked.
"No," the woman replied. "I'm usually on diets because of my work. I'm a PR person at a company so I always have to look my best. I eat mostly salad, soup and boiled meat."
"What about exercise?" Mina inquired.
"Daily half an hour jogging."
"And your work life balance? Is it normal? Do you overwork a lot?"
"I usually return very late at night," the woman confessed. "I have to work almost till 1 am everyda due to the nature of my work. There are many office events too. And on weekends, I'm busy with conference calls from other countries. We have clients there too."
