Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
A question asking about the patient's personal experience with the prescribed diet and exercise regimen will elicit an illness narrative, as it allows the patient to express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences related to their health condition. Choices B, C, and D are more focused on specific medical details and may not necessarily elicit a broader illness narrative.
