When Pliny's doctor told her what she had last August he asked her if she had experienced any symptoms. Pliny said that no she had not experienced any symptoms. She asked what were the symptoms just in case she had experienced them but did not realise what they were. He listed a few. None of those, said Pliny.
Some people report that they feel weird, said the doctor. I don't feel weird, said Pliny.
Some people say that they hadn't realised they felt weird until they had the operation, because afterwards they felt better, he said. Pliny thought that that was undermining. Now she had to question whether all her little idiosyncracies were merely symptoms.
After she had had the operation, she was happy to discover that she felt exactly the same. This proves, she thought, that I did not feel weird before, because if I did I would feel better now.
