Inside an international flight cabin.
Secretary Zhao sat next to Wei Yan, keeping an eye on his boss's movements.
Seeing Wei Yan looking through the window at the crowded waiting area at the airport, where he could only see black figures whose faces were indistinguishable, he whispered, "Director Wei, Uncle Fu and the others should have gone back... The company's affairs have been arranged, so you don't have to worry."
Wei Yan chuckled: "You talk more today than usual."
As the chairman of a listed company, Wei Yan not only needs to handle official duties every day, but also needs to fly around the world.
It's just that this time I will stay abroad longer than before.
According to the treatment plan, the entire process will take about a month. During this period, the headhunting company will also ask other famous doctors such as neurosurgeons to rush to Dr. David's hospital to conduct risk assessment and confirmation for this operation.
As for the private medical team that takes care of Wei Yan's daily life, they had already taken a flight last night and arrived abroad to make arrangements.
Facing Wei Yan's gaze, Secretary Zhao smiled calmly and said, "Although it is Director Wei who needs surgery, I am actually quite nervous too."
In the past two years, many famous doctors have come to see Mr. Wei, but none of them expressed their confidence that they could cure him. Now, finally one has appeared, and Mr. Wei's leg symptoms have improved for three or four days in a row. Secretary Zhao is naturally very happy.
"There's nothing to be nervous about. There are only two possible outcomes - one that can be cured and one that can't be cured." Wei Yan raised his hand and touched his legs that had been warm these days. "No matter what the situation is, it can't be worse than it is now."
He couldn't stand up three years ago, and now after the surgery, the worst that can happen is that he will remain the same.
"Mr. Wei, you said that... Uncle Fu will be sad when he hears this. He has been hoping that you can get better." Secretary Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Fu had always wanted to ask the chef to come and take care of you. After you refused, I think he seemed a little disappointed."
In recent days, Uncle Fu asked the chef to prepare various medicinal foods for Wei Yan every day, hoping that he could eat more every day. I don't know how those medicinal foods are cooked. Obviously, the soup is full of various Chinese medicines, but the smell is extremely delicious, which makes people salivate.
Wei Yan chuckled, "That's how old people are. Just get used to it."
Traditional Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years in China. Various health clubs, medicated diets, acupuncture, Chinese medicine departments, Chinese medicine hospitals, etc. can be seen everywhere. Even skin care products and food in the past often contain Chinese medicine ingredients.
But it is different abroad. Customs in many countries prohibit the entry of traditional Chinese medicine or traditional Chinese medicine containing animal ingredients.
In order to avoid trouble, Wei Yan directly rejected Fu Bo's kindness.
In his opinion, no matter how delicious the medicinal food is, it will be the same after one or two months.
"…………" Secretary Zhao glanced at the back of Wei Yan's head resentfully, licked the corner of his lips subconsciously, and recalled the alluring fragrance.
The boss doesn't want to eat it, but he does! Even if he can't eat it, it's good to smell it...
However, going abroad for medical treatment is the focus this time, and all other things have to be put aside.
The plane took off with a hum. Wei Yan closed his eyes and prepared to rest. The flight would last more than ten hours, so he needed to be fully alert so that the operation could be performed as soon as possible.
…………
Sixth Hospital, General Internal Medicine Outpatient Clinic.
Su Tang sat at the examination table, seemingly calm and composed with a smile on her face, but in fact, she was still a little afraid of how to teach people medicine.
Not to mention her life, she herself just graduated from school not long ago and is still a newcomer.
In his previous life, as a court physician, although he had several apprentices, the way of teaching apprentices at that time was different from now. Basically, "30% depends on hard work, and 70% depends on talent." Those with poor talent or poor comprehension would be eliminated after a few days, and only three or five people with better comprehension would be left to be taught slowly.
First, they teach how to select and identify medicinal materials, and then slowly teach them how to diagnose and prescribe medicines. This whole process takes at least a dozen years.
But now...
Su Tang's eyes slowly moved over Lan Haicui.
He had previously studied Western medicine, which is very different from the Chinese medicine system, and he had already learned the basic knowledge in school.
Su Tang thought about it a lot last night.
It is more appropriate to focus on teaching the other party how to identify the symptoms.
Let Dr. Lan examine the patient first, and then she will examine the patient to confirm the patient's condition and treatment plan, which will allow Dr. Lan to gradually improve.
With a clear idea in mind, Su Tang entered into teaching mode.
Starting from the first registered patient, Su Tang would first hand the medical record to Lan Haicui. She would only take the patient's pulse again after Lan Haicui had examined the patient and made a conclusion.
Since there are not many patients in the general internal medicine outpatient clinic, the two of them can handle it, one teaching and the other studying.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough..."
The person who came in this time was a middle-aged woman who looked a little thin. Her cheeks were slightly red and she started coughing non-stop as soon as she entered the room. Even though she tried to turn sideways, she still couldn't hide her ferocious appearance.
Su Tang nodded at Lan Haicui and asked her to see the patient first.
Lan Haicui asked the patient to sit down, took her medical record, and began a new round of diagnosis and inquiry: "Miss Jiang, right? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
The middle-aged woman nodded and immediately told her about her condition: "I started to have a fever three days ago and have had a headache. I took some cold pills but they didn't help. I worked half a day yesterday and went home to rest for a night. This morning I still have a cough and a runny nose... So I came to the hospital and wanted the doctor to prescribe some medicine for me."
Lan Haicui took notes carefully with a pen, occasionally looking up to ask a few questions.
I took his temperature, which was 38°C, listened to his lungs, and examined his tonsils and throat.
Lan Haicui then said to Su Tang: "Ms. Jiang has a fever, cough, headache, and obvious congestion in the throat, but there is nothing else wrong with her lungs and tonsils. It should be a common cold. But the fever has lasted for more than three days, and there is no history of asthma. It is recommended that she take aspirin or ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms of headache and fever. She can also take some anti-inflammatory drugs for antibiotic treatment..."
Su Tang nodded without saying anything, but raised her hand and let the middle-aged woman put her wrist on the pillow so that she could take her pulse.
Su Tang took the patient's pulse quite quickly. As soon as he put his hand on the patient's pulse, he could clearly feel the patient's floating pulse. The pulse was both floating and tight, like a taut steel wire floating on the skin. It was the most typical wind-heat cold.
In the words of Western medicine, it is the simplest common cold, but because the high fever lasts too long and the patient is extremely uncomfortable, it needs simple treatment.
"Um……"
Su Tang nodded at Lan Haicui, indicating that it was fine. He turned to look at the middle-aged woman and said, "Miss Jiang, do you want to use Western medicine or Chinese medicine for treatment? This is the simplest cold and fever. If you use Western medicine for treatment, we can just prescribe some anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen for you."
"But if you want to use Chinese medicine, I will give you an injection now and then prescribe a dose of Qinglong Decoction." Seeing that Miss Jiang seemed shocked by the two methods he mentioned, Su Tang thought for a moment and explained, "Both Western and Chinese medicine are very effective for the common cold. The cold granules you took before may be used to treat wind-cold colds, but you have a wind-heat cold, so they are not very suitable for you."
The biggest difference between wind-cold type colds and wind-heat type colds is that the former often occur in winter or during the transition period between autumn and winter, while the latter mainly occur in summer.
Although the clinical symptoms are very similar to ordinary people, such as sore throat and cough, the pulse and symptoms are actually very different for doctors. Wind-cold type colds mainly have nasal congestion and runny nose, while wind-heat type colds are mainly characterized by fever and headache.
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Miss Jiang nodded, looked at Su Tang and then at Lan Haicui, and finally said to Lan Haicui with a smile: "I think we should use Western medicine for treatment. I feel that anti-inflammatory drugs and the like will be more effective. I have to go to work tomorrow."
Both Su Tang and Lan Haicui look very young, especially Su Tang. Therefore, when it was just a minor cold, even though Miss Jiang could clearly see that Su Tang was the one who took the lead in seeing the doctor, she still chose the most familiar anti-inflammatory drug.
"no problem."
Su Tang nodded and asked Lan Haicui to write the prescription directly. She read it and then signed her name.
He saw more than a dozen patients in this way. Most of them came for Su Tang, but a few randomly chose a doctor and just wanted to have a quick look. Therefore, in addition to Miss Jiang, two other subsequent patients chose the prescription prepared by Lan Haicui.
Su Tang didn't mind this at all. Since she had promised the guest director to take care of Dr. Lan, she naturally had to do it.
Lan Haicui followed Su Tang in the same way as she followed Director Ke. She would see the patients she could see and write down her own treatment plans. For the patients she could not see, she would follow Su Tang and learn from her.
The vast majority of patients knew that it was a teaching activity and did not object. Instead, they smiled and allowed Lan Haicui to watch it twice more.
Although Lan Haicui, as a western doctor, does not know much about Chinese medicine, she is a geriatric internist after all, so she still studied Su Tang's method of acupuncture and prescribing medicine seriously. Even if she cannot use it, it is always a good idea to learn more...
In the clinic, one was teaching and the other was learning, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.
There were not many patients in the clinic this morning. By around 10:40, there were only four patients left in the queue, and Su Tang pressed the fourth number from the last.
As the horn sounded in the waiting area, the patient quickly came to the clinic from the waiting area.
The patient looked to be in his 30s, with long hair and a haggard face. He complained of a low-grade fever for 5 days, a significant headache, nausea, sneezing and a runny nose.
"Doctor, I look like I have a cold. Can you give me some anti-inflammatory medicine?" The woman looked haggard and obviously very tired. "I have to go to work tomorrow. I have already taken my monthly leave, so I have to get better quickly."
Just like Miss Jiang before, Su Tang also asked Lan Haicui to examine the other party first.
After more than a dozen patients came in, Lan Haicui did not need Su Tang's hint. She immediately took their temperature, listened to their lungs, observed their tonsils and throat, and asked them whether they had a history of asthma, etc.
Lan Haicui: "Ms. Feng has a fever and headache, accompanied by nausea and runny nose, but there is nothing wrong with her lungs and tonsils. It should be the same as Ms. Jiang, a common cold. However, she has had a low-grade fever for 5 days. It is also recommended to use antibiotics for treatment, ibuprofen to relieve headaches, and Weifukang to relieve nausea..."
Patients with colds and fevers are the most common diseases in general internal medicine. Lan Haicui has seen many such patients since she started learning from Dr. Ke more than two months ago, so she is quite familiar with the diagnosis.
Lan Haicui was full of confidence. She thought that this time Su Tang would ask Miss Feng whether she wanted to use traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, just like she did to Miss Jiang.
However, Su Tang, who was checking Miss Feng's pulse, frowned more and more.
Lan Haicui: “……?”
Su Tang asked Miss Feng to stretch out her left hand. After taking her pulse, he asked her to stretch out her right hand and carefully felt her pulse. Then he shook his head at Lan Haicui.
Lan Haicui: “…………???”
Su Tang did not explain much in front of the patient. She just smiled and turned to look at Miss Feng: "I wonder if Miss Feng is married now? If she is married, then congratulations, Miss Feng. Judging from your pulse now... you should be pregnant. I suggest you take an early pregnancy test."
Lan Haicui: “?!”
Ms. Feng: “!!!”
Su Tang: "Some people experience early pregnancy symptoms that are very similar to those of a cold, including fever, nausea, vomiting, and drowsiness. Some may also experience sinusitis and runny nose due to hormonal changes in the body, but these are just early pregnancy reactions."
Su Tang looked at Miss Feng with a smile: "Looking at Miss Feng's current state, this should be her first pregnancy. This should not have happened before, so I suggest that you do not overwork during this period and try to take good care of yourself. If necessary, you can eat some food rich in folic acid and protein."
What Su Tang said hit Lan Haicui's heart like a bolt from the blue, but when it came to Miss Feng's ears, she was very happy.
Just like Su Tang said, she got married relatively late and had been trying to get pregnant, but she didn’t get pregnant after nearly a year. During this time, she was busy with the company and she didn’t even think about it. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant!
"Thank you, doctor, thank you, doctor. I'll go get a pregnancy test now!" Miss Feng was a little excited. She was so excited that she was incoherent. Even her originally haggard face was a little flushed because of excitement. She even took out her mobile phone and called her husband on the spot. She was so excited as if it was the New Year holiday.
Lan Haicui looked at Su Tang and asked, "Doctor Su, is pulse diagnosis really so magical?"
As a resident intern, Lan Haicui was not discouraged by the misdiagnosis of the disease this time, but she became more curious about Susugar.
Because she had been following the guest director to learn in the past few days, Lan Haicui also knew some of the situation about Su Tang.
But even though she knew it, as a western medicine practitioner, Lan Haicui still believed more in what she had learned for eight years.
But now it seems that pulse diagnosis is far more magical than she imagined.
“Pulse diagnosis is magical, but it is also very practical.”
Su Tang smiled and said, "If Dr. Lan wants to learn pulse diagnosis in the future, I can teach you. But it's a bit difficult to learn. I'm afraid it will take a lot of Dr. Lan's energy. It may take two or three years for you to learn it well."
Taking a pulse is different from prescribing medicine. To prescribe Chinese medicine, one needs a Chinese medicine license, but taking a pulse is merely a personal medical treatment method.
Therefore, Lan Haicui nodded without thinking and said, "Learn! I am willing to learn pulse diagnosis from Dr. Su!"
"It's just... I'm going to change my department to neurology next week. Isn't it a little late to learn now?" Lan Haicui thought for a moment and said.
After going to the Department of Neurology, even as a resident, she was very busy. Under such circumstances, it was indeed not easy for her to learn pulse diagnosis from Dr. Su.
Su Tang touched his chin and said, "We will learn this slowly. I will teach you the most basic pulse diagnosis in the next two days..."
"Really?! Thank you so much!" Lan Haicui was so excited that her cheeks turned red, and she immediately expressed her gratitude repeatedly.
Su Tang and Lan Haicui were talking excitedly, but Pan Yuhao's mouth twitched slightly.
What's wrong with this Dr. Su?
I had persuaded him to study Chinese medicine before, saying that I would teach him the prescription for treating impotence.
Then she asked Dr. Lan to learn pulse diagnosis from her.
Looking back, will all the doctors in the Sixth Hospital learn Chinese medicine in a while?
Pan Yuhao was right.
Su Tang did consciously guide others to pay attention to traditional Chinese medicine.
This is not only because Su Tang was a court physician in her previous life, but more importantly, she found that there are many diseases that can be cured by traditional Chinese medicine, while Western medicine is more troublesome.
As a traditional Chinese medicine that has been rooted in China for thousands of years, it has its own merits.
Since she has the memory of her previous life and the opportunity to promote Chinese medicine, Su Tang instinctively wants to become a pioneer in promoting Chinese medicine.
She has even thought that after her paper on acupuncture and hemostasis in traditional Chinese medicine is published, she can also teach other Chinese medicine practitioners how to apply acupuncture and hemostasis in surgery.
Among hospitals of all levels across the country, there is definitely more than just the Sixth Hospital that needs blood and is short of blood.
Only by promoting this technology can more people benefit from it!
But she is not well-known now, and all she can do is to influence the people around her subtly and encourage them to learn Chinese medicine.
…………
School ends earlier during the summer vacation, unlike normal classes on weekdays when students have to wait until five or six in the afternoon.
The summer remedial classes at No. 5 Middle School usually only last until around three or four in the afternoon, and then the teachers go home after school.
On weekdays, when school is over, all the students are like birds that have just been released from their cages, swarming towards the school gate as quickly as possible, wishing they could grow two pairs of wings on their backs to help them quickly escape from the clutches of the campus.
But today...
Class 1032.
Seven or eight classmates gathered around a little boy, showing no signs of leaving. They were even rubbing their hands together, eager to try, and were very excited.
"Hey, Feng Yu, are you telling the truth? Is Chinese medicine really that magical? Can a single injection make you grow one centimeter taller at once?" A little girl in a pink dress had three parts of excitement and four parts of doubt in her eyes, as well as some eagerness and curiosity that could not be concealed.
"He Beibei, if you don't believe me, come with me to the hospital today and you will find out. I used to go to the hospital every day to have Dr. Su give me injections. Basically, I would grow one centimeter after each injection. Now, after four days... I have grown a lot taller!" It only took Feng Yu four days to grow from 142cm to 146cm.
This not only made Feng's parents happy, but also made Feng Yu extremely excited.
When this person was excited and happy, he couldn't help but come to the school to show off.
And then this show-off...
Many people in the class knew that Feng Yu grew taller after acupuncture.
Everyone was very surprised and envious, and some people even said on the spot that they wanted to go to the hospital with Feng Yu today.
"Feng Yu, He Beibei should trust you. I trust you!"
The short boy who was sitting in the first row with Feng Yu patted Feng Yu's shoulder excitedly and said, "I felt that you have grown a lot taller two days ago. I thought it was my illusion... I didn't expect that you actually grew taller! You must share such a good doctor with me! I want my parents to take me to the hospital as well!"
"Yeah! I want to go too! I've always wanted to grow up to be as tall as Jordan so I can play basketball. Now I finally have the chance!"
"Brother, a good doctor can't be monopolized! You have to share with us..."
"Hey, Feng Yu, why don't we go to the hospital with you today? I want to see how acupuncture can help you grow taller. I've never heard of such news on the Internet before."
In just two or three minutes, He Beibei, who was originally standing next to Feng Yu to ask questions, had already been squeezed to the side by other classmates. The angry girl stomped her feet and said, "Oh, I didn't say I didn't believe it! Feng Yu, you can't be partial to one and the other, I want to go to the hospital with you!"
Feng Yu, who had never been so welcomed by his classmates, nodded repeatedly and said that he would take everyone with him to the Sixth Hospital for treatment today.
He also didn't expect that his classmate, who used to be of good height, would actually hope to grow taller.
Like dancing, playing basketball, wanting to be a model and so on.
A group of people were discussing very enthusiastically.
So, we waited until the afternoon, around four o'clock.
Su Tang was sitting in the outpatient office when she suddenly noticed that the outpatient back-office APP made a series of ding sounds!
Su Tang clicked on it casually with confusion.
The results are on the background app...
A series of 13 years old, 14 years old, 13 years old, 13 years old...
Su Tang: “…………???”
What's going on?
Could it be that there was a sudden outbreak of infectious influenza in the junior high school next door?
There was no need for Su Tang to press the call button, as seven or eight black heads appeared in front of the clinic door in unison.
There were both men and women among them, all carrying schoolbags, looking like they had just finished school.
Su Tang: “……?”
Feng Yu licked his face, squeezed out from the end of the crowd, and said with a chuckle: "Doctor sister, I brought your classmates here~ They told me that they also want to try acupuncture to grow taller~"
"Yes, sister, I heard that you can help Feng Yu grow taller, can you help us too?"
Several middle school students immediately chattered and expressed their desire to grow taller.
Su Tang: “…………”
No, I think you need to discuss it with your parents first before making a decision!
The attending physician of the endocrinology department, who had just got off work and was about to return to the department, stopped subconsciously when passing by the general internal medicine clinic.
Attending physician: “……???”
How come he just heard several middle school students in the clinic talking about wanting to grow taller?
Isn't this the responsibility of their endocrinology department? Why do all the patients come to the general internal medicine department?
