When Yaya's father heard Lin Lin's question, he rubbed his temples vigorously, as if trying to squeeze out a clue from his chaotic memories: "Something special... Oh, right, during that time, our district merged with other districts, and we also moved to Menggui Apartments due to upgrades."
"The house had just been renovated not long ago, but the contractor at the time assured us that the renovation materials were environmentally friendly, there were no quality issues during the entire renovation process, and it would not be harmful to our health."
"We figured since everyone said so, and the house had been aired out for a week or two, there shouldn't be any problems. We were also busy with our new jobs, so we just moved in."
Hearing this, Lin Lin's brows tightened instantly, and his eyebrows seemed to be twisted together by an invisible force, forming a deep "chuan" character between his eyebrows.
She was startled and thought to herself: 'How could it be such a coincidence? Both of these medical records are actually related to renovations...' This thought kept circling in her mind, like an ominous cloud hanging over her.
She subconsciously turned her gaze to Damei, and Damei was also looking at her.
The two people's eyes met in the air, like two invisible electric currents colliding with each other, instantly conveying each other's inner shock, confusion and vague worry. No words were needed, just this one look seemed to have exchanged thousands of words of complex emotions.
At this moment, Yaya's mother seemed to suddenly remember something: "Yeah, after moving in, Yaya often complained of itching all over her body. We thought it was a skin allergy, so we went to the convenience store and bought some anti-itch ointment and applied it to her, but it didn't seem to help."
Lin Lin's heart moved, and he asked, "Have you noticed the decoration materials of the new house? Are there any special smells?"
My father replied with a bitter face, "We bought environmentally friendly materials, and the renovation company said there was no problem. There was just a little bit of smell when we first moved in, but it faded a lot after ventilation."
Lin Lin nodded and continued, "What about your diet? Besides the increase in appetite, have you eaten anything you haven't eaten before? Or have you eaten certain foods more frequently?"
The mother thought for a moment and said, "Yes, Yaya really likes the pastries from the new cake shop downstairs. She eats one almost every day. The cream they use seems to be different from other places. It has a rich flavor, and Yaya really likes it."
Lin Lin made a few more notes in the medical record, quickly sorting out the information in his mind.
Both decoration materials and new food sources may be factors that cause Yaya's physical abnormalities.
"How is Yaya's sleep? Does she have insomnia or nightmares?" Lin Lin looked at Yaya with concern in his eyes.
The mother replied, "She doesn't sleep well at night. She often tosses and turns, sweats, and sometimes talks in her sleep. But we thought it was just a child's excessive internal heat, so we didn't pay much attention to it."
Lin Lin stood up, walked to Yaya, and carefully observed her skin, hair and other details.
She found that Yaya's hair was a little dry and yellow, and her skin was a little rough, which might be external manifestations of internal problems in the body.
Lin Lin gently stroked Yaya's hair and frowned even more tightly.
She returned to her seat and said solemnly to Yaya's parents, "Judging from the current situation, the situation is quite complicated. Even if the decoration materials are environmentally friendly, they may contain some low-dose harmful substances. Ventilating the room for a week or two may not be enough to completely eliminate the hidden dangers."
"Also, new foods may contain ingredients that can affect your endocrine system or cause allergies."
Yaya's father asked anxiously, "What should we do now, Doctor Lin?"
Lin Lin looked at them and said slowly, "We need to conduct a more comprehensive examination of Yaya."
"First, we need to retest various blood indicators, including more detailed endocrine hormone levels and blood toxin levels."
"In the meantime, I recommend collecting some air samples and renovation material samples from your new home for analysis to see if there are any potentially hazardous substances."
"We also need to investigate the ingredients of the pastries in that cake shop."
Yaya's mother frowned with confusion, her face filled with doubt. "Collecting samples from home? Wouldn't that be too much trouble? We've been so busy lately, and this sounds complicated."
Lin Lin's face was serious, and he explained in a firm tone, "This is extremely necessary."
She paused and continued, "Only by accurately knowing the possible cause of the disease can we develop the most effective treatment plan."
"Think about it, if the direction is wrong, then Yaya's treatment may take many detours."
"Besides, look at Yaya's current condition," Lin Lin said, looking at Yaya half-lying in her father's arms with worried eyes. "Her condition can no longer be delayed. Every minute of delay may make her condition worse. We must find the cause as soon as possible."
Lin Lin retracted his gaze and looked at Yaya's pale face again. He lowered his voice and asked, "Yaya should be around 8 years old now, right?"
There was a hint of confirmation in her tone. Even though she asked this, she already had a rough idea in her mind.
Yaya's parents nodded at the same time, and there was helplessness and confusion in their eyes when they looked at Lin Lin.
Lin Lin said with a serious expression, "It's not normal for her to have her first period at this age. This may have a lot to do with her obesity."
"And judging from Yaya's current condition, obesity is no longer just a problem affecting her appearance. It's very likely that there's a disorder in her endocrine system."
"That's just one of the problems. Another problem is that I looked at her previous records and found that Yaya's menstrual flow was also abnormal, which is a serious warning for a girl of her age."
"Her pale skin is closely related to her lack of blood. The long-term abnormal menstrual flow may have caused her to have a lack of blood..."
Before Lin Lin could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ya's mother.
As if to prove something, she explained eagerly, "I ordered blood-tonifying porridge for her from the Abyss Hotel for a month, and watched her drink it every day, but it didn't work at all."
"That porridge is said to be made with very precious medicinal herbs and some fine products. I used to feel very energetic when I drank it myself, but I don't know why it doesn't work on Yaya?"
As Ya's mother spoke, her eyes became red and her voice choked. She really didn't understand why she had done so much for her child but still couldn't change the current situation.
