Not sure what he was trying to say...Sí, si sigo así...

Question

The context of the conversation is someone suggesting to a sick friend to go and see a doctor.

¿Qué te pasa? ¿No te encuentras bien? Me duele muchisimo la cabeza. ¿Quíeres una aspirina? Es que no tomo nunca. ¿Y por qué no vas al médico? Sí, si sigo así...

I don't know what the last sentence means. I know all the individual words, but together, I don't follow. Could someone explain?

Many thanks one and all !

Thanks for the editing, as well. - Pibosan, Feb 9, 2011

Answer 1

Hi pibo,

Sí, si sigo así...

Yes, (I will go to the doctor) if I continue like this.

Answer 2

Ah, right. So he meant he would go if his headache didn't get better. Makes sense now.

I used he advisedly, as us men don't like "bothering" the doctor with minor things like headache....

¡Gracias!

We men don't like (consider it if you had left out "men"...us don't like...) On the other hand, perhaps doctors like bothering us men (can't say "bothering we")...sorry for the grammar lesson. :) - webdunce, Feb 9, 2011

No, this is not standard English. But I was being tongue in cheek and a bit "northern". - Pibosan, Feb 9, 2011

What's going on? Aren't you feeling well?

My head hurts a lot. (I have a severe headache)

Do you want an aspirin?

I don't want to take anything.

And why aren't you going to the doctor?

Yes [I will], if I continue like this. (If I don't feel better soon).
