Lin Lin quickly recorded the information in the medical record, then asked, "What is your daily routine like? Is it regular?"
Song Rong wiped away her tears and said, "I try to keep a regular routine. I go to bed around ten o'clock every night and get up around six in the morning, but I still feel very tired."
"And I found that no matter how I adjusted, my body showed no signs of improvement."
Lin Lin thought for a moment and then said, "Have you noticed any special changes in your diet or living environment?"
Song Rong looked at Lin Lin with some confusion, as if she wasn't sure what kind of changes she wanted to ask about.
Lin Lin also understood the confusion in Song Rong's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he gave her two simple examples: "For example, changing your workplace or coming into contact with new objects."
Song Rong frowned slightly, and there was still some doubt in his eyes.
She pondered for a moment and then slowly said, "I haven't changed jobs. I've been working at the same company all these years, but... but I've already resigned."
After saying that, she sighed softly and lowered her head again.
Lin Lin asked, "Can I ask why you resigned?"
Song Rong's lips trembled slightly, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes: "My weight has suddenly increased like crazy, and many people in the company are secretly talking about me behind my back."
"Some people even mocked me in front of me and asked me if I was fat because I ate twin feed..."
"Not long after, the company fired me on the grounds that my image affected the company's image..."
"Besides, the strange looks and gossip yesterday put too much pressure on me, so I just left."
Lin Lin nodded: "Is there anything else special?"
Song Rong murmured softly: "Is there anything else special...what else..."
She just sat there quietly, her eyes a little dazed, as if she was recalling something.
"Oh right! Before the New Year, the company underwent a large-scale renovation, and then the boss took us out for a team-building trip. We were practicing some traditional health-preserving methods, deep in the mountains..."
"Ever since I came back from that place, I've felt unwell all over. About a month later, my weight seemed to be out of control, and I gained weight faster and faster."
At this point, she couldn't help but look up at Lin Lin and Damei, her eyes searching as if for an answer. Then, as if talking to herself, she murmured, "Could it be related to this?"
The tone was full of uncertainty, but he vaguely felt that there might be some connection between them.
Lin Lin and Director Mei looked at each other and felt that this might be an important clue.
"That's very likely." Lin Lin replied.
"Each type of decoration material contains some harmful substances that may affect the human endocrine system and lead to abnormal weight gain."
"Another possibility is that during your company's team-building trip deep in the mountains, you may have accidentally eaten or come into contact with some unknown plants, food, or objects, leading to your current condition."
"Of course, this could also be unrelated to your company's renovations or team building. At this point, we're just a little suspicious."
"If you agree, we need to conduct a more detailed examination on you, including endocrine indicators in the blood and some possible toxin tests."
A glimmer of hope ignited in Song Rong's eyes: "Really? If you can find the cause, I'm willing to do any tests."
Director Mei smiled and comforted him, "Song Rong, don't worry, we will arrange for you to be hospitalized as soon as possible and then give you a comprehensive examination."
"However, it may take some time for the test results to come back. You have to be patient. We will always be with you to find the answers."
Song Rong nodded vigorously: "Thank you, as long as there is hope, I have confidence."
The conversation with Song Rong was coming to an end, and Director Mei arranged for someone to take her to handle a series of procedures for hospitalization.
Lin Lin quietly looked at the papers recording the detailed symptoms, and gained a more comprehensive understanding of Song Rong's condition.
After a while, Director Mei came back and gently knocked on the door of Room 10.
"Knock~knock~knock", the crisp knocking sound echoed in the quiet corridor, like some special signal.
"Come in!" Lin Lin's voice came from inside the house, steady and with a hint of professional seriousness.
"Director Lin, everything has been arranged with Song Rong. Patient No. 2 is now in Clinic 11 next door. Should we continue the consultation here or go next door?"
Director Mei's voice was filled with inquiry, and her eyes were focused on Lin Lin, waiting for the dean's instructions.
Lin Lin frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Just over here!"
There was a decisiveness in her eyes. In medical work, familiarity with the environment sometimes affects the effectiveness of the consultation. After all, she had already completed a consultation for a similar medical record in Room 10, and she could perform better in a familiar space.
"Okay, then I'll go bring the person over." After Director Mei said that, she turned and left. Her steps were light and quick, and she closed the door gently when she left.
When the door closed, the light "click" sound was like a brief period, ending this not-so-long conversation.
Director Mei came to the next door clinic 11, where the family of three was sitting awkwardly on the chairs.
The child twisted his body restlessly, and the young parents looked worried, their eyes revealing their anxiety about their child's condition.
Xiaomei was comforting them softly. When she saw Director Mei coming, she nodded slightly and left to return to her job.
Director Mei brought the family of three to the door of Clinic 10 and knocked on the door again.
However, unlike before, Director Mei pushed the door open and walked in right after knocking, without waiting for Lin Lin to say "come in".
However, when Lin Lin heard the knock on the door, he stood up and saw Director Damei followed by a family of three. Lin Lin looked at her with some confusion.
Director Mei seemed to notice Lin Lin's gaze and explained softly, "Dean Lin, this child's situation is special. I'm afraid of delaying too long, so I'd better ask both parents to come together and talk about the basic situation..."
Lin Lin nodded slightly to show his understanding.
Her gaze then fell on the family of three, and the professional look in her eyes returned.
The child was pulled by his parents, hiding behind them in fear, with only his big eyes showing as he looked at Lin Lin timidly.
The young parents' faces were filled with anxiety, and the father spoke first: "Director, you must help our child. He has been suffering from this illness for a long time."
The mother was wiping her tears, and her helpless look was heartbreaking.
