Answer 3

The "#2 stuff" is called a bowel movement or bm for short. I'm not sure what you mean by the little chicken pox inside the mouth. From what country did you emigrate? Many clinics have translators they can call. In our town, I know for a fact they have access to people who can translate Spanish, Hmong and Armenian, and probably a few others. Let the receptionist know when you make the appointment that you have some difficulty with English, and ask if they have a translator for your language. You'd be surprised at how far many clinics will go to help you. If they don't have a translator, and you have a local university, you could contact the foreign language department there to see if they have anyone who could accompany you to the doctor to translate. The best way to make things clear for you and the doctor is to have someone available who speaks both languages well.
