Chapter 183 Stillborn



We've got a job!

Su Ruyi's eyes lit up; good deeds were being delivered to her doorstep!

She quickly asked, "What are your symptoms?"

She assumed that the patient was this middle-aged man who was on his deathbed.

Hang Shuhuai said, "It wasn't me, it was my wife. Her...her symptoms are rather complicated...Do you have time to come and see her? I'll send a car to pick you up!"

"Now?" Su Ruyi glanced at the sun; it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. "Okay! My address is..."

Half an hour later, a Lada sedan arrived at the entrance of the village clinic.

A man wearing a Zhongshan suit and gold-rimmed glasses got out of the car and knocked on the door.

Su Ruyi hurried out from the backyard: "Is this Comrade Hang? I am Su Ruyi."

Hang Shuhuai was surprised that Dr. Su was so young. He paused for a moment and then said, "I am indeed Hang Shuhuai. Dr. Su, hello! Please forgive my intrusion!"

His flowery words seemed somewhat out of place in this small northeastern village.

"Comrade Hang, you don't need to be so polite," Su Ruyi waved her hand and got into the passenger seat. "Let's go."

As she spoke, Su Ruyi observed Hang Shuhuai's complexion.

There is obvious deficiency of both qi and blood, to the point that it needs to be properly treated for several months.

Hang Shuhuai then began to describe his wife's illness at length: "My wife has had this illness for at least ten years, and it has started to get worse this year. Oh dear, I am so worried that I can't eat or sleep! We have seen more than a dozen doctors, and each time they changed the medicine. My wife herself said that she takes more medicine than food every day, but her condition is getting worse and worse!"

"So, what exactly are the symptoms?" Su Ruyi was completely confused.

"Dr. Su, you come from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, right?" Hang Shuhuai paused for a moment. "From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, she should have metrorrhagia. But it's more severe than ordinary metrorrhagia! For the past six months, she's been bleeding every day! Not only metrorrhagia, but also rectal bleeding! So now she has severe anemia, and this month alone she's already had to go to the hospital for blood transfusions three times!"

Metrorrhagia is a term used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to describe a type of bleeding that occurs outside of menstruation. Heavy bleeding is called "metrorrhagia," while light bleeding is called "metrorrhagia."

This is not a difficult or complicated disease; usually, seven doses of medicine can cure it completely.

As Hang Shuhuai drove, he pulled a stack of prescriptions from his pocket: "These are the prescriptions my wife has taken in the past six months. I've marked the order in red pen. Please take a look..."

Su Ruyi looked through them one by one.

These are all very traditional prescriptions, ranging from Taohong Siwu Decoction to Baoyin Decoction. The prescriptions have been repeatedly modified and adjusted, which shows that each doctor has different ideas about the diagnosis of this patient.

Why is this happening?

"Has the patient's coagulation function been checked?" Su Ruyi immediately thought of certain blood diseases.

"I've had it checked many times, and the platelet count has always been within the normal range!" Hang Shuhuai had already become a semi-doctor, and then went on to report the values ​​from each of the past six months' tests, even down to the decimal point.

That is indeed a normal value.

Su Ruyi frowned.

About forty minutes later, the two arrived at the foot of a four-story building in Tieshi.

In this day and age, those who can live on the top floor of a four-story building are not ordinary people.

Although Su Ruyi had never asked Hang Shuhuai what he did for a living, the refined manner he exuded completely distinguished him from ordinary workers.

On the way, Hang Shuhuai introduced his wife. Her name was Tie Yinghua, and before taking sick leave, she was the deputy director of the Health Department of Heilongjiang Province.

Su Ruyi's brows furrowed even more deeply.

Since the patient is also a member of the healthcare system, all the medical resources in Heilongjiang Province should have already been tried.

She felt a little uncertain. Although the medical books in her study had elevated her skills to the level of a seasoned traditional Chinese medicine doctor with at least twenty years of experience, the illness was still one that no one in the entire Heilongjiang province could cure…

While she was lost in thought, Hang Shuhuai led her into the house.

The bedroom door was tightly closed.

Hang Shuhuai poured tea for Su Ruyi and went in first to explain the situation.

"Please let the doctor in," Tie Yinghua's voice came, and it wasn't particularly weak; she was at least stronger than her husband.

Su Ruyi went inside.

Tie Yinghua lay on her side on the bed, her face devoid of color. She smiled through her pale lips: "The young doctor is so handsome."

Su Ruyi smiled, and three fingers were already gripping her wrist.

This pulse...

Su Ruyi held her breath and calmed herself down. A few minutes later, she switched to the other wrist.

Qi stagnation, Qi deficiency, and blood stasis.

However, it did not reach the point of collapse.

That's so strange!

Su Ruyi couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment, so she released her divine sense and scanned Tie Yinghua's entire body.

When her hand touched her lower abdomen, she couldn't help but gasp.

This woman has two uteruses!

Two uteruses, one large and one small!

In the smaller uterus, there was an old, stillborn fetus! It had already calcified!

It is about three months old, and the size is very clear.

However, this stillborn fetus looked quite old, as it was covered by some tumor-like material, and there was a ruptured blood vessel on it!

"Does your bleeding worsen when you move around?" Su Ruyi asked.

"Yes, so now I can only lie in bed all day! I might as well be dead!" Tie Yinghua pounded the bed frame in frustration.

Su Ruyi pondered for a moment.

This small uterus is located behind the large uterus, so it's no surprise that it was missed during the ultrasound examination.

"Did you experience symptoms of false pregnancy when you were younger?" Su Ruyi asked again.

"Little doctor, you're amazing! I once thought I was pregnant, but my period stopped for about four months! But then, nothing happened! It must have been ten years, right?" Tie Yinghua grabbed Su Ruyi's hand. "It was about that false pregnancy, wasn't it?"

Now, Su Ruyi was certain.

Stillborn fetuses that remain in the abdominal cavity usually calcify. It is extremely rare for a stillborn fetus to have other tissues growing on it, as is the case here.

Su Ruyi immediately took out her needle kit: "Your condition is a meridian problem. My master taught me how to treat this. We have an ancestral acupuncture technique. I'll give you acupuncture to stop the bleeding now, and you'll be fine in a little while!"

By this time, Tie Yinghua trusted Su Ruyi completely, and hurriedly scolded her husband, "What are you standing there for? Go! Close the curtains and turn on the lights!"

Hang Shuhuai complied.

Su Ruyi held her breath and began to administer the acupuncture.

Actually, the main purpose of acupuncture is to relieve pain.

Separating a stillborn fetus is very painful and will create a fresh wound.

She enveloped the stillborn fetus with her divine sense, first severing the blood vessels and sealing both ends, then began to peel it away little by little.

After the stillborn fetus was separated, she instantly used her divine sense to store it into her spatial storage.
