An Arduous Situation
After her fainting spell in the office, Keely made an appointment to see a doctor immediately. As Keely told him her workload was high at the time, he diagnosed her fainting spell as stress-related and offered no other possible explanation for her symptoms.

He did try to put her mind at ease by telling her that it was nothing serious and again confirmed that she was not expecting. It seemed like as the doctors could not pin her symptoms down to anything conventional or obvious, that they lacked the skill or care needed to give Keely the answers that she so desperately needed.
