Chapter 86 Surgery
Cloud City.
Early morning.
Cheng Shuyi was woken up by the nurse.
She was admitted to the hospital last night and will undergo a comprehensive examination today.
The nurse tried to help her up twice but failed.
Because she was going to be taken for a check-up today, the nurse didn't ask her what illness she had last night.
I couldn't help myself and asked her, "Ms. Cheng, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Shuyi closed his eyes and took a moment to calm himself down, "Stomach cancer, late stage."
When the nurse heard this, he silently let go of her arm and said, "Ms. Cheng, wait for me."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
After a while, the nurse pushed a wheelchair in.
Cheng Shuyi's health was so poor that the nurse had to carry her up and down the stairs in a wheelchair for checkups.
It took a whole morning, and the test results will probably be out in the afternoon.
Cheng Shuyi went back to the ward first.
Without Zhao Ning's medicine, she was so weak that she could only lie on the bed and gasp for breath, unable to even open her eyes.
The nurse gave her some liquid food, but she took a few bites and stopped eating.
It was the nurse who woke her up in the afternoon.
Her attending physician, Cheng Shuyi, knows her.
It was the doctor who had previously diagnosed her with stomach cancer.
Cheng Shuyi smiled gently when he saw him: "Doctor Li, long time no see."
Li Mao was holding the X-ray film she had taken that morning, and her medical records were on the table.
I didn't dare to believe that this was Cheng Shuyi's film until I saw her in person, then I dared to believe it was her.
"Doctor Li, how many days do I have left?" Cheng Shuyi asked jokingly.
The last time I came, Li Mao said that she conservatively estimated that it would take another half a year.
This time, I probably won’t be here for a few days.
After all, she has done so much for her body. She doesn't take medicine, doesn't have any dietary restrictions, and is busy until midnight every day.
But the answer Li Mao gave her was beyond her expectations.
Li Mao looked quite curious and asked, "Ms. Cheng, have you been taking any medicine recently? It's not the medicine I prescribed for you, but someone else's, right?"
His question also confused Cheng Shuyi.
She cheered herself up and went to the doctor truthfully: "I've been taking Chinese medicine for more than half a month. What's wrong?"
"Traditional Chinese medicine..." Li Mao showed a puzzled expression, then said in praise: "There are still such amazing traditional Chinese medicine practitioners nowadays. It is indeed something left by our ancestors."
"Ms. Cheng, which Chinese medicine clinic did you go to to get the medicine? Could you please share the prescription with me? This way, my patients' chances of survival will be much higher."
Li Mao was still admiring her film, his face full of the confidence of a doctor that the patient could be cured.
Cheng Shuyi was even more confused.
Is there any hope for her?
Cheng Shuyi couldn't help but get excited when he thought of this possibility.
But her happiness was suppressed after a short while.
She couldn't be too optimistic. What if it was a misdiagnosis? Or what if the doctor had made a mistake?
"Doctor Li, is there any problem with my film?" Cheng Shuyi held the wheelchair handle tightly and asked carefully as if afraid of dashing his hopes.
Li Mao took a picture of the film on the light wall and then turned his gaze to her.
Explain her films and condition to her seriously and attentively.
"The last time you came, the cancer had spread throughout your stomach. Surgery couldn't completely remove it. Chemotherapy and medication were the only options, but they weren't very effective."
Cheng Shuyi had heard these words once before in May.
Li Mao pointed at her new film and continued, "This time, the cancer cells are concentrated again. It should be possible to completely remove them, but further examination is needed to confirm."
Cheng Shuyi's brain buzzed and went blank for a moment.
After a while, she asked in a trembling voice, "Doctor Li, are you saying... I can still be saved and I don't have to die?"
The first thing that flashed through Cheng Shuyi's mind was the figures of Pei Yanli and the two children.
Li Mao also wanted to know whether she could be saved.
"Well, I'll arrange further examinations for you as soon as possible. You'll receive intravenous drips in the hospital for the next few days."
"None of your body's indicators meet the requirements for surgery. You should first take care of your body. If surgery is possible, there's a chance you'll recover completely."
Her health is too poor.
He could understand that a person with stomach cancer couldn't eat, but he still had to be taken care of.
Let me give you nutrient solution for a few days.
The news that she might be cured gave Cheng Shuyi hope again.
She actively cooperated with the doctor in examinations, infusions and injections.
She tried her best to eat all the liquid food prepared by the nurse, even if she would vomit in the end.
Nothing would be better than her being able to have surgery and get better.
Cheng Shuyi also told the people at the funeral home that she might need surgery.
The young man was quite happy for her and even brought fruit to see her twice.
The landlord who helped her look after the warehouse also came to see her.
There were still some goods in the warehouse. Cheng Shuyi thought he was going to die, so he planned to sell the goods.
Now I can't die.
She changed her mind.
Cheng Shuyi told the landlord that if her operation was successful, she would continue to rent the warehouse.
If her operation fails, she will give the goods in the warehouse to the old man and let him dispose of them privately.
Uncle Dong was heartbroken when he heard that she was in the hospital alone with no one at home.
I often made soup and porridge for her.
After half a month of rest, Cheng Shuyi was visibly a little fatter than before, and all his physical indicators were up to standard.
Li Mao arranged a surgery time for her.
"From the X-ray, it's confirmed that the cancerous area can be completely removed. Don't worry."
Cheng Shuyi's complexion has become much rosier, and she looks forward to the surgery every day.
"Don't worry, Doctor Li. I trust you!"
Li Mao said that she might have to have two-thirds of her stomach removed. What’s the big deal about having her stomach removed?
As long as you can survive, you can cut it any way you want!
-
Cheng Shuyi entered the operating room as he wished.
The operation lasted four hours and successfully removed the cancerous area.
After gastric cancer surgery, patients can usually be discharged from the hospital within a week.
Cheng Shuyi also wanted to be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible, fly back to ancient times, and return to her two children.
But she was too weak when she was admitted to the hospital, which led to complications after the operation and she had to undergo another laparotomy.
This resulted in her discharge from the hospital being delayed.
Cheng Shuyi received intravenous fluids in the hospital for half a month before the operation, and spent another twenty days recovering in the hospital after the operation.
It took a full thirty-seven days from admission to discharge.
It was late October when she was discharged from the hospital.
The nurse was very busy and only took her to the hospital gate before going back to take care of other patients.
The young man at the funeral home bought her a bouquet of flowers to celebrate her discharge from the hospital and also saw her off to the car.
Cheng Shuyi was very grateful to him.
She didn't even pay the funeral home, yet she always made him spend money.
So when sending a banner to Li Mao, Cheng Shuyi also sent one to the funeral home.
She had done everything she needed to do in modern times, and her health had recovered well.
The moment Cheng Shuyi returned to ancient times, he unexpectedly felt homesick.
She left without saying goodbye, and now she is going back without saying goodbye.
I wonder how Pei Yanli will react?
...dividing line...
All the above medical knowledge is made up by me, please don’t take it seriously!
