Serafa looks about the infirmary. "I suppose I should get mine done as well, as long as I am here." Avoiding chores? Never! Nerak looks at Serafa, "I guess it's your turn. She hands Serafa a gown and points to the cot. You know the drill" and smiles. She washes her hands and gets her instruments ready - warms the listening tub and the like. Serafa stretches and pads closer to the other healer, taking the gown and hastily stripping in order to get into its lovely shapeless comfort. "Sure do, No recent illnesses, injuries, accidents or horrible diseases in the family." The healerite rattles off with out thought. "My file should be floating about somewhere." she nods before seating herself cross-legged upon the cot closest to her. You paged Serafa with: Nerak pages, "you want to be healthy, I take it? :)" Serafa pages, "Yup, Sef's fit as a fiddle and hardy too, for all that she's smallish." Nerak walks over to the cabinet and grabs Serafa's file and looks at it. "You've been healthy so far... Ok, good." She pulls out her warmed listening tube. "Ok, I'm going to listen to your heart." and she does so. "This is great, you are one of the first patients I've had to give a physical to whose heart isn't beating like a rabbit! (or whatever they have on Pern...)" Serafa grins. "Naw, I can give them in my sleep you know, Just sometimes its nice to have it done for you." Freak. She sits still and allows her eyes to travel about the room. "Deep breathing now? Or do you need a few more moments?" Healers make the worst paitents. Nerak smiles, "Yes, now.. please take some deep breaths." As Serafa takes deep breaths, Nerak moves the listening tube around in a pattern on the chest, then moves to the back. "Sounds good! You're healthy. It sure is different giving physicals to healers! Much faster though..." Serafa chuckles softly. "You know, I haven't really given that many to Healers, normally just the new ones, and they are as nervous as non-healers half the time" Nodnod, conversation is good and relaxing. Nerak grabs the glowstick off the table. "Yeah, it is a nice change. Ok, time for your ears. Look left... right... good. Ears are fine. Open your mouth... say ahh..." She smiles and almost laughs... its as if Serafa's reading her mind... Serafa follows the rapid-fire instructions quietly, looking up, opening mouth and even turning her head from side to side at the appropriate intervals. Nerak "You are doing great." she hands Serafa a handkerchief. "Please blow your nose, I need to check in there... if you get a bloody nose while a-dragonback, I want to make sure it's not structural." she smiles, "So, what's it like being a candidate?" Serafa takes the hankerchief and blows her nose with a little tootle. "Done." Beam look up, her nose is all clean and stuff now. She begins to see what Sarah found so fascinating with the ceilings however. Nerak smiles "Looks fine. I need to check your eyes now. Please look straight... up... right... left... down... very good. Your eyes are healthy." She grins, "So, how is candidacy different that healer?" Serafa wiggles ner nose, resisting the urge to sneeze. "It's different, lots more work, and its alot more physical, but it's better as well becuase I was posted up here for so long I didn't really get to socialise with others my age. So its fun that way." Burble burble lookin many directions. Nerak grins, "Sounds like fun. Having just made Journeyman, I'm so busy with all of the new work involved. I have yet to get a mentee, but it'll come in time." She checks her findings with the file, noting that everything is normal and nothing has changed so far. She picks up the mallet, "Time to make your knees jump!" and she chuckles as she taps the knees and watches them jump... Serafa unfolds her legs and lets them dangle and relax. Her reflexes are fine, slightly better than average actually. "Oooh, that was quick wasn't it?" She asks of the older more progressed healer. Nerak says, "Great reactions! Please lay back now, and try not to laugh..." she pulls the sheet over her patient's hips and goes to wash & dry her hands. She then begins to feel the abdomen for abnormalities. Serafa lays back and rests up on her elbows dark eyes watching as the healer progresses through the external examination. "Doesn't really tickle." But thats cos Sef's used to it and all. "Just a little pressure. Oh and perhaps not to hard lower down? I think I need to go, but I can wait as long as you are gentle." Sef shares. Nerak rolls her eyes... "Ok, light pressure... You may want to go before the internal exam?" and smiles "I am ticklish, it always tickles me!" Serafa shakes her head and makes an expression of a tougher older man. "Naw its fine ma'am, my father din't raise no weaklings." The ressurgance of her Keroonian drawl indicating slight discomfort, but nothing to be worried about really. Nerak nods, "It all feels normal to me, I'll do this quickly then." She pulls the sheet/drape over Serafa's knees, "Open your legs please". While there, she checks what needs to be checked. "You look fine. While you get dressed, I'll just wash up and get your draught." Serafa nods and sits up, sliding the robe over her head and re-dressing quickly. stretching her neck out she watches the other woman as she get the contraceptive. "It's a little earlier but it wont really hurt now will it?" She just hasta ask. Nerak washes her hands and pours another cup of contraceptive draught. "You know the drill from being a healer." then hears teh question. "It depends, how early is it? They are supposed to be 4 sevendays apart." Serafa wrinkles her nose. "It's been about three, I can't remember if thats okay or not." She shrugs now fully dressed and reaching for the beaker. "It shouldn't hurt any thought right?" Nerak shakes her head. "If it's been three weeks or more you're alright, especially if you haven't been sexually active. Of course, I could leave it up to you to take it in a week. I could write a note up on the board to remind you. Otherwise, you've passed the physical. Being a healer, and since you are in here alot, you know when to take it." Serafa nods and downs the draught with out complaint. "Well thats all that done, I really need to go visit the latrines now. Good luck" And with that the mid-night haired healerite is out the door and gone
