Chapter 97 He has parasites in his stomach
As a film queen and a top star in the country, Ye Shuang has excellent connections throughout the country.
However, as a star whose main career is developed in China, his overseas connections are somewhat weak. It’s not that he doesn’t know people, but he doesn’t know any top doctors who can help with lung cancer, and he can’t find anyone who can communicate with top doctors!
"She didn't go to the Medical Headhunters?"
Xie Zhuokai frowned slightly and asked, "Have you given her the business cards of the famous medical headhunting companies in China?"
When Xie's father suffered a stroke and became paralyzed, Xie Zhuokai specially asked someone to find several suitable and reputable medical headhunting companies.
Secretary Zhou shook his head: "When Miss Ye and Mr. Wei went to the hospital for a checkup, they found lung cancer not long after, so they went to look for these headhunting companies... But the doctors found by the headhunting companies did not seem to meet Miss Ye's requirements..."
Secretary Zhou was being euphemistic in his words. The truth was that even the doctors hired by the headhunting company could not solve Ye Shuang and Wei Feng's current problems.
"Even the people hired by the headhunting company can't solve it?"
Xie Zhuokai was surprised. "Didn't those companies hire the best oncologist in the world for Ye Shuang? Couldn't they hire any doctor on the international list of famous doctors?"
"Yes... but these headhunting companies only invited Dr. Brown, who ranked 163rd this year, and Dr. Kent, who ranked 102nd... Miss Ye took Mr. Wei to Country M to see Dr. Kent to perform the surgery."
Secretary Zhou slowly relayed the news he had learned during this period, "But... it is said that Mr. Wei still had metastasis after the surgery and chemotherapy... So I heard from Miss Ye's assistant that Miss Ye was very haggard during this period... and stopped all work."
Various complications are often prone to occur after lung cancer surgery, such as chest infection, lung failure, bronchopleural fistula, etc., but this time Wei Feng's condition was not caused by these reasons, but by the metastasis of the disease after surgery and chemotherapy.
Once cancer has metastasized, the chances of recovery are very slim.
Xie Zhuokai "…"
Xie Zhuokai remained silent, his dark eyes filled with sighs and lamentations, but he still subconsciously asked, "Is there no better doctor willing to take this case?"
Secretary Zhou shook his head: "I heard that there is no such thing for the time being..."
There are many types of cancer. Even oncologists divide them into kidney, liver, brain, lung, intestine, etc.
Wei Feng suffers from lung cancer, which requires an oncologist who is proficient in thoracic surgery, or a thoracic surgeon who is proficient in tumors... But after searching among these headhunting companies, there are only three famous doctors who meet the requirements and are ranked 102 higher than Dr. Kent.
However, as these three are top doctors, there are countless patients who want to see them every year. Two of them directly refused, saying that their appointments were scheduled for two years later. Although the other one did not refuse, he never agreed to the call, and all the phone calls and emails he made fell into an empty sea.
But Wei Feng's lung cancer obviously can't be delayed any longer...
Metastasis occurred in just one month, and the cancer cells expanded rapidly. If it is not treated during this period, by the time two years pass, there might be grass growing over the grave.
"Um……"
Xie Zhuokai frowned, and his fingers holding the pen tapped lightly on the table unconsciously, making a "dong dong dong" sound.
As a family member of the patient, Xie Zhuokai is well aware of Ye Shuang's current condition.
Ye Shuang and Wei Feng are both employees of Huaning Entertainment Company and have worked in the company for many years. Logically, Xie Zhuokai should at least give them a hand.
But the problem is that different industries have different worlds. As the owner of an entertainment company, he didn't know anyone who could talk to these three famous doctors. But no matter what, Xie Zhuokai decided to make a phone call to ask.
"I'll make the call first...you can reply to Ye Shuang later..."
Xie Zhuokai sighed, "Tell Ye Shuang not to worry about the company contract or the script contracts. Wei Feng is not in good health these days, so she should just stay at home and accompany him... As for the scripts and the company, I will try my best to keep whatever the company can for her. At least we can wait until she comes back to shoot the big-budget TV series that the company invested in this year."
Xie Zhuokai frowned: "This is also the reward for the couple's work for Hua Ning Entertainment Company for more than ten years."
Although Hua Ning is an entertainment company that focuses on business, Xie Zhuokai also believes that their company is a humane company.
As a popular first-line star in China, even if Ye Shuang keeps a low profile on weekdays, her wealth and fame are there, and there is no end to the invitations to Ye Shuang to participate in the filming of various TV series and variety shows every year.
Out of 365 days a year, at least 360 days are spent working. Although Ye Shuang wants to earn money from her work, she is also one of the most hardworking artists in the company, and the company must remember her kindness.
Secretary Zhou nodded and professionally wrote down every word Xie Zhuokai said in his notebook: "Okay, Mr. Xie. I will tell Ms. Ye every word of this matter."
"Well, then you go out to work..." Xie Zhuokai waved his hand and looked at the slightly dark sky outside the window, but his thoughts involuntarily drifted to the General Internal Medicine Department of the Sixth Hospital.
Xie Zhuokai frowned.
It would be great if Dr. Su could have his own unique insights and solutions for treating lung cancer patients, just like he does for treating patients with paralysis after a stroke.
You know, when his father suffered a stroke and became paralyzed, he also consulted numerous famous doctors at home and abroad...
Xie Zhuokai still remembers how sad he and his mother were when they spent a lot of money to seek medical treatment for his father more than two years ago, but there was no progress.
"Ah...? Mr. Xie...?"
Secretary Zhou had sharp ears. He had just walked to the door before he could step out when he heard Xie Zhuokai's murmur. Secretary Zhou turned his head and carefully approached Xie Zhuokai: "Mr. Xie, do you need me to call Dr. Su to see if he can treat lung cancer, or ask if he can help Miss Ye and his wife?"
Secretary Zhou still remembers that the reason Wei Feng was able to find out that he had lung cancer was because Dr. Su took a few more glances at him during the concert.
"Your ears are quite useful. Okay! Take some time to make a phone call and ask Dr. Su." Xie Zhuokai glanced at Secretary Zhou and made the final decision.
Although he did not hold out any hope for this matter, it did not prevent Xie Zhuokai from asking his secretary to make a phone call. After all, it would not hurt to ask.
…………
Since Su Tang has to go to the operating room every week to perform acupuncture and moxibustion to stop bleeding on many patients undergoing major surgeries.
The number of times Su Tang could go to the outpatient clinic every week dropped sharply, but this did not stop Su Tang's enthusiasm for outpatient patients. In fact, because the number of visits to the outpatient clinic decreased every week, Su Tang even hoped that there would be more patients during work.
Unfortunately, after the morning rush hour.
Outpatient patients come in a sporadic stream, and it may take half an hour, an hour, or even two hours to see one person.
I am at work in the outpatient clinic today, and Su Tang is doing the same.
Looking at the clinic backstage which seemed a little empty after the last patient left in the afternoon, Su Tang immediately spotted Feng Miaomiao who was sitting next to Xiong Wei, looking bored.
"Miaomiao, come here... Didn't we agree to treat dizziness at noon?" Su Tang smiled like a lucky cat, waving her white and tender little paws at Feng Miaomiao: "I'm going to tell you now about the desensitization treatment and the method of transferring essence and identifying qi. Let's try these two methods starting today."
The so-called desensitization therapy is that after the patient has developed a fear or allergy to a certain thing or scene, the patient is artificially exposed to these things in small amounts and repeatedly, so that the patient no longer has such severe fear or allergy to this thing or scene.
The method of shifting the essence and identifying the qi is easier to explain. Literally speaking, it is to let the patient shift his or her attention and mental energy to other places, so as to divert the attention and no longer be afraid of the scene or a certain thing.
"Okay, Teacher Su!" Feng Miaomiao carried a wooden stool and trotted to Su Tang, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Su Tang patted Feng Miaomiao on the shoulder and said, "I don't have anything on hand right now. After I tell you, go back and try it yourself."
"First of all, blood is red. Since you have bloodsickness, you should also have some resistance to red things. You can wear red clothes, red pants, or carry a red backpack every day when you go to work to train your resistance."
Su Tang said slowly, "If bright red doesn't work for you, then start with pink or rose red. Until you can wear all red without feeling shortness of breath, fear, or dizziness."
"Secondly, you can consider drinking some red tomato juice every day in the future... If you can't drink it the first time, then take your time. You can start with the ketchup on the French fries." Su Tang looked at Feng Miaomiao with a smile: "Until you can drink the red tomato juice without changing your expression, you will slowly adapt to this situation in the future and gradually overcome this psychological state of blood dizziness."
"Also, after these two steps are completed... you can consider going to the vegetable market or the fresh produce section of the supermarket to see how everyone kills chickens, ducks, and fish..."
"If you can do all this, I think it shouldn't be a big problem to go to the operating room to watch people undergo surgery in the future when you go to work..." Su Tang spoke slowly, and his dark eyes looked at Feng Miaomiao gently.
The child is young and has probably been studying all his life. He has never seen chickens and ducks being killed in his life.
In addition, perhaps something happened in childhood that left some shadows in the heart, so it is normal to have blood sickness.
"If you still feel sick when you look at tomatoes, Teacher Su has another suggestion for you... just focus on the outline of the tomato."
“Compare each red tomato to see which one has a more beautiful outline, which one is rounder, which one is longer and thinner… instead of focusing all your attention on the red color of the tomato… this is what Chinese medicine often calls moving the essence to identify the qi…”
Su Tang explained the treatment of hemorrhage to Feng Miaomiao in detail. Pan Yuhao and Xiong Wei, who were sitting next to them, listened from time to time.
By the way, I flipped through the Chinese medicine books on hand...
In just a month or two, the Chinese medicine books in the hands of Pan Yuhao and Xiong Wei were almost worn out.
"Okay, Teacher Su..."
"No problem, thank you Teacher Su..." Feng Miaomiao held a notebook in her hand. Every time Su Tang said something, the child took paper and a pen and quickly wrote notes on the notebook.
Su Tang blinked, and sighed in her heart that this child was really serious about treating hemorrhage.
She did not forget that when she first met Feng Miaomiao and Sun Dong, Sun Dong mentioned in their conversation that Feng Miaomiao had the ability to remember almost everything he read.
How can someone with a photographic memory take notes if he or she doesn't really care?
"You can only practice this desensitization treatment slowly, starting from every day... It's unlikely to be effective in a short period of time..." Su Tang touched his chin and encouraged Feng Miaomiao, "But over time, when your internship is over next year, this hemosickness will probably no longer affect you."
However...
Su Tang blinked twice. She suspected that from tomorrow she would be able to see little red men of different colors in the department, pink, peach, bright red, and all kinds of red.
Su Tang: It should be quite festive too?
"Ah... It seems that Xiao Feng will have a new nickname in our department soon..." Pan Yuhao withdrew his eavesdropping ears and yawned loudly.
Su Tang: “…Huh?”
Feng Miaomiao, Sun Dong: “……???”
Pan Yuhao slowly put down the Chinese medicine book in his hand and said lazily, "It's either Big Gray Wolf in red clothes, or Nezha, the Fuwa, or Little Red Riding Hood. At the very least, it should be a vampire or something like that, right? After all, drinking tomato juice and wearing red clothes every day, only these nicknames are more suitable for him."
Su Tang: “…”
Feng Miaomiao, Sun Dong: "..."
What the hell is this? Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood!
Is there anyone in the department so boring that he would give his colleagues such a nickname? !
Seeing that the three people didn't believe him, Pan Yuhao sighed quietly, and with the look of an experienced person, he stretched out his big hand and pinched Sun Dong's shoulder, and said with a lingering fear: "Alas, you don't understand. When I came to work in the hospital, I wore two green clothes. Several children of patients' families in the department secretly called me the Hulk."
Su Tang: “…”
Feng Miaomiao: “…”
We didn't understand it, but we were deeply shocked.
Sun Dong's shoulder was pinched by a big hand, and he looked at his teacher stutteringly: "Teacher Pan, actually the Hulk is also quite handsome... but he is a man, a man's rottenness."
Su Tang: “…………”
Su Tang sighed inwardly. It wasn't easy to be an intern these days. Even though her face was almost green from being pinched by Pan Yuhao's big hands, she still had to keep smiling and brag to the teacher.
Su Tang looked at Sun Dong with sympathy, then slowly withdrew her gaze.
"Miaomiao, you don't have to pay attention to what Teacher Pan said. Anyway, the patients in our department come and go, and everyone will leave the inpatient department and leave the department soon. Since you want to continue on the clinical path, you must strengthen your beliefs and work hard to overcome hemosickness!" Su Tang clenched his fist to cheer Feng Miaomiao up.
Feng Miaomiao clenched her fists, and her fair face flushed with excitement. She nodded firmly and said, "Yes! Teacher Su, don't worry, I will definitely overcome my hemosickness!"
“Boom boom boom—”
While they were still talking, there was a knock on the open door. At the same time, a young woman walked into the room with a little boy of about eleven or twelve years old.
Su Tang and the others raised their heads and looked at each other. The woman was a little shy, but she pushed the little boy's shoulder and said, "Go, let your uncle and aunt take a look at you and find out what's wrong with you. The child started to have stomachache this morning and still had stomachache when he went home at noon, so I brought him to the hospital..."
The little boy had a shaved head and wore a simple white school uniform. He looked a little depressed. He looked up at Pan Yuhao and Xiong Wei, then looked up at Su Tang. Finally, he walked to Su Tang's table in three or two steps, looked at Su Tang and said, "Beautiful sister, can you help me? I don't want those two uncles to help me..."
"Okay, sit down... If you feel uncomfortable, tell me."
Su Tang nodded to the little boy, then pointed to the name on her desk and said to the woman, "Also, parents need to register their children. You can just use your phone to scan the QR code on the wall and choose my number."
"Okay, okay..." The woman nodded and quickly took out her cell phone to register.
However, Pan Yuhao stared at him with dead eyes and expressionless face: "…………"
My goodness, this little brat calls pretty girls "pretty sister" and calls ugly guys "uncle". Isn't this a bit too realistic? ?
The boy was naturally unaware of Pan Yuhao's inner roar. He lowered his head, touched his abdomen and frowned, "Doctor sister, I have been feeling a bit indigestion these days. My stomach is always uncomfortable. I have stomachaches every night, but the pain seems to be worse in the past two days than before."
"Where in the abdomen?"
Su Tang looked at the little boy, let him lie on the examination bed, lifted his clothes to expose his lower abdomen, and began to palpate. While pressing, she asked, "Is it here? Or here...?"
"It's here... um!"
The little boy was lying on the treatment bed. When Su Tang's fingers pressed on the umbilical cord, the boy immediately frowned and cried out in pain. His face seemed to turn pale at that moment, and he looked even more haggard.
"When you go home to sleep at night, do you tend to grind your teeth and toss and turn over?" Su Tang patted the little boy and asked him to sit up on the treatment bed. She went back to the computer, opened the boy's medical record, and made a note.
"Yes, I often grind my teeth and toss and turn at night and can't sleep well." The boy sat up and cooperated with Su Tang's questions.
Su Tang took a look at the boy's umbilical cord, then looked at his fingernails, and said crisply, "You probably have roundworms in your stomach. Usually when there are parasites in the stomach, there will be pain in the umbilical cord, and there will also be loss of appetite and indigestion..."
"Most importantly, people with intestinal parasite infections usually like to bite their nails, grind their teeth and turn over at night."
Su Tang pointed at the little boy's 10 fingers and said, "Look at your fingernails. They are bitten here and there. They don't look good at all. Take deworming medicine when you go back, and don't bite your nails anymore..."
Su Tang gently advised: "Look at the uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters in the hospital. They all have short nails. It's so nice to have them neatly trimmed."
"Long nails contain a lot of bacteria, which can easily lead to illness. When your nails grow back, use scissors yourself or ask your mother to help you cut them. This will reduce the chances of getting sick in the future."
When it comes to children, Su Tang is extremely patient.
The little boy looked at Su Tang twice, nodded obediently and said, "Thank you, doctor sister..."
After talking to the little boy, Su Tang turned around and reminded the boy's mother to wash the fruits and vegetables they bought home thoroughly, especially cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. that were eaten raw. It was best to disinfect them with potassium permanganate or something like that and wash them thoroughly before eating. Only then did she let the boy's mother take the boy away from the outpatient office.
However, when the boy's mother left, her face turned red and she looked a little embarrassed.
After all, urban conditions are good these days and people rarely suffer from diseases such as parasites.
"Oh... I'm so jealous of Pediatrics..."
Pan Yuhao stretched his neck to take a look at the boy's information on the app. Seeing that the age column said 11 and a half years old, he couldn't help but sigh: "The registration fee for our department is the same as that for pediatrics, but the boy's mother chose to come to our department and didn't even register when she entered... It must be because she went to the pediatric clinic before and found that there were too many patients there, so she turned to our department."
Pan Yuhao said in a sour tone, "Oh, I'm so jealous of the pediatric department..."
Su Tang was stunned: “…………”
Not really, really not!
Su Tang never expected that Dr. Pan could figure out so many things about such a young patient.
But Xiong Wei and the other two nodded seriously and said, "Yes, that's right. Our department is still a little too weak... lacking in combat power."
Su Tang: “…………”
Su Tang shrank his neck and stopped talking, then returned to his seat and continued to be a waiting stone.
However, the cell phone inside the white coat started to vibrate.
Su Tang picked up the phone and saw the three characters "Secretary Zhou" clearly written on the caller ID.
Su Tang blinked, picked up the phone and said "Hello" reflexively.
On the other end of the phone, Secretary Zhou smiled and greeted Su Tang: "Dr. Su, hello... I am Xiao Zhou, the secretary of Mr. Xie Zhuokai. Do you remember me?"
Secretary Zhou totally ignored the fact that he was seven or eight years older than Su Tang. He always called her "you" and "Xiao Zhou" and put himself in a low position.
Su Tang felt a little embarrassed, but she pulled herself together and said seriously, "Secretary Zhou, you called me today because Mr. Xie wants something from you? If you have something to say, just tell me..."
"Oh, Doctor Su... Today I'm not calling to thank you, Mr. Su, or Mr. Chairman, but to thank the colleague who you helped to diagnose lung cancer at the concert..." Secretary Zhou said, "I have something I want to ask."
"Huh?" Su Tang raised her eyebrows. When she and Wei Feng were talking about his illness, the door was closed and they were alone in the room. Logically, Secretary Zhou and others should not have known that Wei Feng had lung cancer.
But now it seems...
The patient must have directly disclosed his symptoms to his former colleague.
Su Tang: "If you have any questions, Secretary Zhou, just ask directly... I will answer the questions I can, but if I can't answer them, you may need to ask Wei Feng yourself."
Secretary Zhou was a smart man. When he heard what Su Tang said, he immediately realized that Su Tang had misunderstood him. He quickly shook his head and smiled, "Doctor Su, I didn't call to inquire about Wei Feng's specific condition..."
Secretary Zhou: "I want to ask, can patients like Wei Feng who have metastatic lung cancer after surgery be treated at your place?"
Su Tang: “……Hmm???”
Su Tang was surprised. Wei Feng's lung cancer should have been in the early or middle stages at that time. Logically, the success rate of the operation should have been very high. How could the disease metastasize?
However, sometimes, the patient's condition cannot be changed by human will, and it is normal for it to change.
Su Tang thought about it, and after a moment's deliberation, she said carefully to the other end of the phone: "Can it be cured? I need to see the medical records first."
"How about...? Can you send me the other party's medical records first?"
She should at least look at the patient's specific medical history before making any other judgment.
Su Tang pondered over the three key words: lung cancer patients, post-surgery, and metastasis. Knowing that Wei Feng had undergone surgery a few days ago, he definitely could not undergo a second surgery in a short period of time. Conservative treatment, acupuncture and medicine combined with chemotherapy might be the first choice...
