• A patient during consultation says that Dr, I am under your treatment for nearly 1- 2 months, and I want to continue though there is no noticeable relief. So, if I can see some relief in my symptoms, that would surely be a big help to me in continuing your treatment. The patient expresses his desire that if you show him some positive response it will help him to persevere.
• He wants to see 5-10% relief which will help him to persevere. This is as if removing the dark and bringing in light in form of some relief to the patient who is going on though he is seeing nothing, he wants to see some relief. Here he desires some light to persevere.
