WHY do all my patients do this???

Patient: I'm having abdominal pain

Me: Are you having any nausea/vomiting/jaundice/fever/change in BMs/full ROS

Patient: Nope none of those

Me: *goes and tells attending that the patient has abdo pain w/ pan-negative ROS

*Attending and I go to see patient*

Attending: So what's going on?

Patient: So actually I've been vomiting constantly, having bloody diarrhea, fever of 108 and I just got back from a tropical country and no, I didn't have any shots.
