9월13일 입이 트이는 영어 Getting a Medical Check-up

Talk about a time when you get a medical check-up


On my family's advice, I recently received a medical check-up. It was a comprehensive examination. The day before, I had to abstain from eating. The check-up got under way with simple measurements. Members of the staff measured my height, weight, eyesight, blood pressure and lung capacity. A nurse drew some blood. I also submitted a sample of urine. Then, the more in-depth examinations began.  A doctor administered an ultrasound test. I also received endoscopy inspections. Two weeks later, I got the test results. To my relief, everything seemed normal.
