Chapter 241 Believe in Science
When Wei Ping returned home, he called Wei Duo, but there was no response.
He walked into the room, which was clean and tidy.
And there is also a smell of perfume.
It smells very pleasant.
He opened the study door and looked in.
The two people were not found.
Where did the two women go?
So he picked up his phone.
Called Wei Duo.
"Duoduo, where have you been?"
He asked.
On the other end of the phone was the sound of subway station announcements.
"Brother, I forgot to tell you, Teacher Li and I have something to do and need to go back to school. Breakfast is still on the table. Remember to eat. We'll come over to play with you next week!"
So that's how it is.
That's fine.
He is a bit socially anxious and sometimes doesn't know how to get along with others.
If it was Wei Duo, that would be fine.
But with the addition of Li Yunqi, I would be speechless.
"Okay! I understand."
Wei Ping just sat down.
But as soon as I sat down, someone knocked on the door.
"Who?"
"express delivery!"
Wei Ping opened the door.
I saw a dark-skinned guy.
Probably around twenty years old.
He was pushing the cart at the door.
"You're so quick!" Wei Ping said.
It wasn't even twenty minutes later when the courier arrived.
"In this job, I can make more money by delivering one more item," said the young man.
No industry is easy.
"Please sign for it."
The young man said again.
Then the young man looked at Wei Ping's handwriting.
"There are really very few people with the surname Wei! I've been working in the express delivery business for so many years, and I've only seen a few of them." He murmured.
There are indeed fewer people with the surname Wei. There are only 550,000 in the whole of China, and even fewer in Shanghai.
Wei Ping noticed that the young man had a small red brocade bag hanging around his neck, which might contain talismans or something like that.
The young man also noticed Wei Ping's gaze and said, "I was recently sleep paralyzed by a ghost. My family helped me pray to the temple for this. It gives me peace of mind."
Sleep paralysis is a symptom of sleep paralysis.
This is related to the pressure of life.
But some conditions are often confused with sleep paralysis.
If this is the case, the best time for treatment is likely to be missed.
If that happens, it will be too late to regret.
"Is this often the case?" Wei Ping asked casually.
He is sensitive to the disease. If it doesn't happen often, it's okay. But if it happens frequently, it needs to be taken seriously.
The young man is also talkative.
"It happened twice in five days, but it seems to be getting better. But after waking up, I feel weak all over and my muscles ache. My mind is blanking. I want to sit up in bed, I want to get out of bed, but I don't have the strength to move. It's sleep paralysis. You must have experienced it too, right?"
Wei Ping looked at the young man again.
The neck is a bit thick.
A bit thin at the same time.
"Did you have hyperthyroidism before?" he asked again.
The young man looked at Wei Ping in disbelief.
"How do you know? I used to have hyperthyroidism, but then I felt better and stopped taking medicine."
"You are not suffering from sleep paralysis, but a disease caused by hyperthyroidism. It is called periodic hypokalemic paralysis." Wei Ping said.
Hypokalemic periodic paralysis, also known as hypokalemic periodic paralysis, is a sporadic disease. Its main symptoms are paroxysmal muscle weakness, most pronounced in the proximal extremities, with the lower extremities being more affected than the upper extremities. During the onset of the disease, serum potassium levels are significantly low, but symptoms quickly resolve with potassium supplementation.
Potassium-rich foods include soybeans, which are rich in potassium. The potassium content in every 100 grams of soybeans is as high as 1.5 grams.
There is also kelp. Every 100 grams of dried kelp contains 4.36 grams of potassium.
Bananas have the highest potassium content among all fruits, containing more than 0.3 grams of potassium per 100 grams.
The young man didn't believe it.
"Nonsense! After getting the talisman, my symptoms have been much better. I plan to go to the temple tomorrow to get another one and stick it on the headboard to scare away the ghosts."
How should Wei Ping explain to him?
However, as soon as the young man finished speaking, he felt powerless.
If Wei Ping hadn't supported him, he would have fallen down long ago.
"Why am I suffering from sleep paralysis now? It must be because my mind is not working properly." The young man said again.
Wei Ping was a little speechless. Why didn't this guy believe in him?
It is clearly a scientific matter, but people still believe in it superstitiously.
Sometimes it is because of the ignorance of these patients that the best time for treatment is missed.
Wei Ping helped him to the sofa.
Then he went to the table and took a banana.
"Eat a banana and you will feel better." Wei Ping said.
I don’t have any soybeans and kelp with me now.
Only one banana.
The guy didn't believe it.
"What?"
"Just eat it if I tell you to. I won't hurt you. I'm a doctor."
Wei Ping said.
"Doctor? Wei? I see, you are Doctor Sanquan!"
The young man was a little excited.
At this time, Wei Ping peeled a banana and put it into his mouth.
"Thanks!"
The young man didn't have much strength, but he still expressed his gratitude.
Then he ate a banana.
Strangely enough, after he ate the banana, he felt better after a few minutes.
"I feel much better. It really is the disease you mentioned!" The young man was shocked.
He stood up and felt much more energetic.
At this time, Wei Ping's APP prompts: "Congratulations on diagnosing and alleviating periodic hypokalemic paralysis, and receiving RMB 1,000! Proficiency +100, /"
