As soon as Yun Heng left, another patient came into the clinic. The patient was a middle-aged man in his forties, supported by a woman in her forties.
Arriving at the door of the clinic, the woman carefully glanced inside and asked, "Is Doctor Yun off work?"
"It's not off work yet, come in."
Ren Xuedong greeted him politely, and at the same time took a stool for the man to sit down, saying, "Teacher Yun went to the bathroom."
It's 11:40 now, and there are still 20 minutes before the end of the get off work day. However, with the queuing machine, many patients don't wait any longer because they see that it's late and there are many people in front of them. If Yun Heng is fast, he may finish seeing all the patients in the morning around 11:30, and there will be few patients coming after that. If he is slow, it may take a few minutes longer, and he will not be done until around 12:10.
With the queuing machine, the time does not need to be so accurate. Once a patient registers, Yun Heng will try his best to see the whole patient. Of course, the time cannot exceed the limit too much.
It is now 11:40 and all the registered patients have been seen, but if there are more patients coming, Yun Heng will continue to see them.
"If you don't mind, please tell me about the situation first." Ren Xuedong sat down behind Yun Heng's consulting table and said politely to the patient.
"We came here because we heard about Dr. Yun's reputation. We came here specifically to see him." The woman felt a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, let Xiao Ren take a look first. We'll talk about it after Yun Heng comes. If it really doesn't work, I'll help you take a look myself."
Liang Wanming interrupted with a smile. He also wanted to see how much Ren Xuedong had learned here recently.
"This is Director Liang Wanming of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of our Provincial Hospital, and this is Director Ma Tiequan of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Xihua Hospital. If Doctor Ren is really unsure, there are two other directors to check. Yun Heng will be back soon." Xu Bo hurriedly introduced Liang Wanming and Ma Tiequan to the patient, speaking for Ren Xuedong.
"Then thank you for your help."
The woman glanced at her husband, then nodded and began to describe the symptoms.
The patient's main symptom is night sweats. The sweating is quite severe. The bedding is always wet when sleeping at night, and the whole person feels like being soaked in water.
After listening to the patient, Ren Xuedong asked a few more questions and then prescribed Danggui Liuhuang Decoction.
After printing the prescription, Ren Xuedong did not give it directly to the patient, but gave it to Liang Wanming first.
"Danggui Liuhuang Decoction has the effects of clearing away heat, nourishing yin and purging fire, strengthening the exterior and stopping sweating."
Ma Tiequan also came over and looked at the prescription, commenting on it.
"Um."
Liang Wanming nodded and asked Ren Xuedong: "What is the basis for your prescription?"
"The patient suffered from severe night sweats. Danggui Liuhuang Decoction has the effect of strengthening the exterior and stopping sweating. Moreover, the patient was thin, which should be a sign of yin deficiency. Danggui Liuhuang Decoction has the effect of clearing deficiency and nourishing yin."
Ren Xuedong answered seriously, "Also, considering that the patient didn't have obvious symptoms of excess heat, I specifically removed the Coptis chinensis and replaced it with Anemarrhena asphodeloides."
"Well, replacing the Rhizoma Anemarrhenae with the Rhizoma Coptis is pretty good..."
Liang Wanming nodded and was about to praise Ren Xuedong when Yun Heng came in: "The patient does not have symptoms of Yin deficiency."
