Chapter 1373 This medicine? This medicine?
A little after three in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming was drawing a X-ray diagram of the intraspinal tumor of a patient referred by Dr. Yu Shiquan when he received a call from Mr. Ye.
"Zhiming, you are indeed a lucky star. You are indeed a Tai Sui, and a Tai Sui of quite high quality."
Ye Lao's voice came from the phone, "I also asked someone to go to Xiao Zhao's house and bring back the soil used to feed the Tai Sui. Take good care of the Tai Sui and cut off a piece when needed."
The Tai Sui is extremely resilient, surviving hunger, thirst, cold, sun exposure, and old age. Unless caused by human intervention, it is difficult for it to disappear naturally.
Even if a piece is cut off, it can heal on its own. However, its growth rate is very slow and is affected by many factors.
Otherwise, if you cut a piece and it grows back, you can harvest Tai Sui continuously.
Yu Zhiming also learned from the phone that Gancaotang bought the Tai Sui from Zhao Cai for 200,000 yuan...
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Lifen, a singer in her sixties who suddenly lost hearing in her left ear, quietly arrived at Zhizhen Building wearing a mask and sunglasses, accompanied by a female assistant.
Yu Zhiming is also familiar with the representative songs of this singer with a majestic voice.
Yu Zhiming naturally hoped that her deafness could be recovered within a day or two so that she could perform on stage at the charity gala, so he did not let the students do a check-up first and took over directly.
Yu Zhiming has learned that Li Lifen was fine yesterday and had normal hearing in both ears, but when she woke up in the morning, she found that she could not hear at all in her left ear.
Frightened, she rushed to the hospital for a brain CT scan. No problems were found. After feeling relieved, she thought of Yu Zhiming, who was able to see the big picture from the details.
"Doctor Yu, I'm counting on you."
This voice made Yu Zhiming sigh secretly that time is a butcher's knife, not only for appearance, but also for voice.
The domineering voice that originally seemed to dominate the world in the song now not only sounds desolate and powerless, but also reveals unconcealable tension and uneasiness.
"Ms. Li, I'll do my best." Yu Zhiming comforted her and pointed to the examination bed next to him.
Li Lifen took a deep breath, handed the purse in her hand to the female assistant, and walked towards the examination bed.
"Wait a moment……"
Yu Zhiming stopped Li Lifen, pointed at the handbag that the female assistant had taken over, and asked, "Are you currently taking medication?"
The reason he asked this was that he heard the sound of pills colliding in the medicine bottle from Kun's bag.
Li Lifen nodded and explained, "Doctor Yu, at my age, I have some chronic health problems that require medication to control and alleviate. I also take some nutritional and stimulating medications."
Yu Zhiming said, "Ms. Li, I need to take a look at the medications you're taking. Some medications are ototoxic and may affect the inner ear's sensory structures, causing damage to their function and leading to sudden deafness."
There are many factors that can cause sudden deafness.
Non-disease factors include genetic factors, age factors, mental factors, noise influence, drug factors, etc.
There are also disease factors, such as ear canal-related inflammation, inner ear blood supply disorders caused by vascular diseases, acoustic neuroma, brain tumors, etc.
Among these factors, drug-induced toxic deafness accounts for a high proportion.
Li Lifen took her purse back from the assistant and explained as she went out to get some medicine: "Doctor Yu, the doctor checked my medicine this morning and said it won't affect my hearing."
After a pause, she added, "Doctor Yu, I strictly followed the doctor's instructions and did not overdose."
Li Lifen took out a total of seventeen kinds of medicine from her purse and placed them one by one on the examination bed.
Yu Zhiming looked over and recognized most of them.
There are antihypertensive drugs, painkillers, sleeping pills, throat lozenges, drugs to improve gastrointestinal digestion function, several vitamin tablets, and several nutritional medicines.
"Ms. Li, all medicines are toxic. Unless absolutely necessary, it's best not to take this medicine."
Yu Zhiming picked up a bottle of medicine and shook it, then unscrewed the cap and looked at the pills inside.
"Taking so many medicines every day, perhaps some of the ingredients in them will react and be harmful to the body."
Li Lifen smiled bitterly and said, "Doctor Yu, I don't want to take so many bitter pills, but my body won't allow it."
She emphasized, "I've consulted a doctor about all the medicines I'm taking, and he said they don't conflict with my diet."
The next moment, Li Lifen looked at Yu Zhiming, who was still checking the medicine bottles one by one, and asked, "Could it be that the doctor was wrong?"
this……
Based on Yu Zhiming's current knowledge of medicine, he has not found any conflicts in the medicinal properties of these drugs, nor has he found any ototoxic drugs.
However, Yu Zhiming has always believed that medicine is partly poisonous. Moreover, even effective medicines can have defects due to problems in the production process.
As an industry insider, Yu Zhiming knows that every year there are many cases of patients suffering from worsening conditions, poisoning, or even death due to substandard and counterfeit drugs.
After checking the sleeping pills, Yu Zhiming did not respond to Li Lifen's question, but picked up a bottle of nutritional medicine with instructions in English.
Just shook it...
Hmm…
Yu Zhiming heard obvious noise.
He unscrewed the bottle cap and poured all the medicine into his left hand wearing medical gloves.
There are eleven pills in total, in rugby-shaped capsules.
Yu Zhiming picked up a pill between his right thumb and index finger and shook it...
After putting it down, he picked up another one and shook it...
The eleven pills were finally placed on a medical tray and divided into two piles by Yu Zhiming.
A pile of eight, a pile of three.
Li Lifen frowned and asked, "Doctor Yu, is there something wrong with this medicine? It's said to relieve brain aging, and the average pill costs six hundred yuan."
As Li Lifen was speaking, she saw Yu Zhiming pick up another pill and break open the capsule.
There was white powder that fell on the tray.
Li Lifen then watched as Yu Zhiming took out a capsule from another small pile and broke it open as well...
Li Lifen's eyes couldn't help but focus, this time what poured out of the capsule was yellow powder.
Not only that, Li Lifen also saw small pieces the size of half a sesame seed in the yellow powder.
The same medicine actually has two different colors. Even though Li Lifen is not a doctor, she realized that something was wrong.
"Doctor Yu, this medicine, this medicine..."
"Maybe there's a problem."
Yu Zhiming replied cautiously, then asked, "Did you take this medicine last night?"
Li Lifen nodded quickly and replied, "Yes, one pill a day, before bed."
"I'm deaf in my left ear? This medicine?"
Yu Zhiming handed the medical tray to Jiang Ge and instructed, "Send it to the pathology lab for expedited testing."
He looked at Li Lifen again and said, "Whether the deafness was caused by this drug, we need to wait for the test results."
"To be on the safe side, I'll give you a physical examination..."
