Chapter 201 Worth a friend
Monday is here again, and a new round of busyness begins.
After a day and night of recovery, Yu Zhiming's body temperature returned to normal, but he still felt some soreness in his body.
Because he needed to see patients in the emergency department, Yu Zhiming arrived at Huashan Hospital 10 to 20 minutes earlier than usual working hours.
He first went to the Qi Yue Medical Research Center to change into a white coat, and then took Qiao Lei to the emergency room...
It was still Outpatient Room No. 15. When Yu Zhiming walked into this familiar room, he felt as if he was in another world.
It was as if I had been sleepwalking for the past two days, and at this moment I finally found my feet on earth, broke away from the illusion, and regained complete clarity.
He knew that this was a way to get rid of the aftereffects of being blown away.
Damn, the aftereffects of this are really long-lasting...
Yu Zhiming tidied up and prepared briefly before starting to treat the first patient of the day.
This is a 33-year-old female white-collar worker, wearing a professional suit and with neatly cut short hair, giving people a sense of smartness and capability.
She came here specifically to have her breasts checked.
The female white-collar worker told Yu Zhiming that there was a small lump inside her left side, which did not hurt or itch when touched, and she was very worried.
After an examination, Yu Zhiming told her that it was a breast fibroma, a benign tumor.
It is caused by excessively high estrogen levels, imbalanced regulation, and the body's sensitivity to estrogen. Under the long-term stimulation of estrogen, it causes excessive proliferation of breast epithelial tissue and fibrous tissue, structural disorder, and the formation of tumors.
After a professional explanation, he specifically told the other party, "Your breast fibroid tumor is only one centimeter in diameter. There is no need to worry. Just pay attention to it in daily life."
Yu Zhiming asked again: "Do you have any plans to get pregnant?"
A patient named Guan Qin said a little embarrassedly: "Doctor, I don't even have a boyfriend."
Yu Zhiming said, "If you are planning to get pregnant, you will need surgery to remove it."
"Because this tumor is related to elevated estrogen levels, changes in hormone levels during pregnancy and lactation can cause the tumor to grow rapidly."
Guan Qin said, "Oh," and asked, "Doctor, can I have it removed now?"
"It always feels like a time bomb that might explode at any moment. It's better to remove it early and feel safer."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "If you insist, it's possible. It's just a minimally invasive surgery and doesn't require hospitalization."
Guan Qin hurriedly said: "Doctor, I want surgery to remove it."
Yu Zhiming said "oh" and stopped persuading her. He started filling out the treatment form for her.
For a woman of Guan Qin's age, living in a fast-paced international metropolis like Binhai, feelings come quickly.
Maybe one day, fate will come and you may have a child just after one short night.
It would be much easier to have it removed earlier.
Just as Yu Zhiming was filling out the form, he suddenly saw Guan Qin's right eye move quickly out of the corner of his eye.
He looked up hurriedly and met Guan Qin's slightly nervous gaze and clear eyes.
A pair of eyes, nothing unusual.
It was as if the rapid eye movement he had seen before was just an illusion.
Yu Zhiming firmly believed that it was not an illusion.
Adhering to the idea that any abnormality cannot be overlooked, Yu Zhiming once again let Guan Qin lie on the examination bed.
This time, Yu Zhiming examined Guan Qin's eyes and brain.
Two or three minutes later, Yu Zhiming filled out a new referral form.
"Ms. Guan, you need to be transferred to the neurosurgery department for further brain examination."
"I suspect you have a tumor in your brain..."
Guan Qin was completely dumbfounded.
"Doctor, are you mistaken? I just came here for a breast exam, how come I have a brain tumor?"
"I don't feel any headache or dizziness?"
"How did I get a brain tumor? It's impossible..."
Yu Zhiming asked Qiao Lei to escort the distraught Guan Qin out of the clinic and began to see the second patient...
By 12:10 noon, Yu Zhiming had seen a total of 31 outpatients.
The work efficiency has been significantly improved compared to before, which makes Yu Zhiming very happy. His appetite has also increased greatly, and he ordered an extra meat dish in the staff cafeteria than usual.
He was carrying his dinner tray and looking for an empty table with Qiao Lei when he saw Dr. Cui Zhitan, deputy director of the general surgery department, stand up and wave at him.
"Doctor Yu, here, here!"
The four-person table where Dr. Cui was sitting was already full of people.
But after he signaled with his eyes, the other three people tactfully picked up their plates and left, giving up their seats.
Qiao Lei was also very perceptive and went to look for another location.
Yu Zhiming sat down opposite Dr. Cui.
"Doctor Cui, why did you think of having fun with the people today and come to the cafeteria to have lunch with us young doctors?"
Doctor Cui chuckled and said, "I usually eat lunch in the cafeteria, but due to surgeries and other reasons, I often miss lunch on time."
"I heard that you treated the famous star Rao Yi on Saturday?"
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "It was just a physical examination. She was very worried about breast problems."
Dr. Cui nodded and said, "You are now a recognized authority on breast examinations. More celebrities will come to you in the future."
"Hey, is this true or not?"
"What's true and what's false?" Yu Zhiming was confused for a moment.
Dr. Cui lowered his voice and asked, "Has Rao Yi ever had breast surgery?"
"Don't they say that many celebrities have had plastic surgery?"
Yu Zhiming was just amused. He didn't expect that such a great general surgeon would also gossip.
"It's true. She's a singer, and she doesn't need good looks and a good figure like a movie or TV actress."
Dr. Cui said "oh" in disappointment.
After a pause, he continued slowly, "My youngest son is a sophomore at No. 2 Middle School. On Friday, his math teacher seemingly found him casually."
"Ask him if his father works at Huashan Hospital, and also ask him if he knows you, Doctor Yu."
Yu Zhiming asked, "Did the math teacher tell me what it was?"
Dr. Cui shook his head and sighed, "No!"
"Some teachers nowadays are very cunning. When they want something, they say something ambiguous and full of hidden meanings to students, leaving parents to figure it out on their own."
"The parents figured out the teacher's true intentions, and then tried every possible way, either openly or covertly, to get what the teacher wanted."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Doctor Cui, you are a medical expert at Huashan Hospital. The teacher should be trying to curry favor with you."
Doctor Cui snorted softly and said, "How could they possibly curry favor with me when the child is in someone else's hands?"
"Doctor Yu, let me tell you, every time I go to a parent-teacher conference, it's a very painful experience. We parents are criticized by the teacher just like the children."
"Doctor Yu, when you have children in the future, you will understand how powerful you are."
Yu Zhiming smiled disapprovingly.
He pretended to be joking and asked, "Teacher Cui, are you planning to send me to that teacher and let him do whatever he wants?"
Doctor Cui laughed and said, "How is this possible?"
"I think the teacher asked you about two things, either a physical examination or a visit to the doctor."
"Let me make an appointment with you in advance."
Yu Zhiming nodded gently and said, "No problem. I can still squeeze in time to see one or two patients."
"Thank you, Doctor Yu."
Dr. Cui thanked him and sighed, "Children are here to collect debts."
"Taking care of them every day feels more important than taking care of my own parents. It's exhausting on both ends."
Yu Zhiming buried his head and took two big mouthfuls of food when Dr. Cui's voice rang in his ears again.
"Doctor Yu, I have a pancreaticoduodenectomy tomorrow. Are you interested in participating?"
"Of course I'm interested."
Yu Zhiming replied without thinking.
This pancreaticoduodenectomy is recognized as one of the most difficult operations in general surgery.
If you have the chance to see it, you naturally don’t want to miss it.
However, Yu Zhiming remembered something and said regretfully, "Yesterday I promised Academician Tan that I would attend an exchange meeting with American doctors tomorrow."
Dr. Cui smiled and said, "Since I don't have time tomorrow, I have a gastric tumor removal surgery on Thursday."
"You can participate as my surgical assistant."
Yu Zhiming quickly agreed and said, "If there are no other important matters that require my attention on Thursday, I will definitely participate in this gastric tumor removal surgery..."
After lunch, Yu Zhiming did not return to the Qi Yue Medical Research Center to rest, but went directly back to the emergency room.
He wanted to seize the time and complete the diagnosis and treatment of the fifty outpatient patients registered today.
When he arrived at the No. 15 outpatient clinic, Yu Zhiming was stopped by someone.
"Doctor Yu, do you still remember me?"
Yu Zhiming stopped and turned around to look at the young man with an embarrassed look on his face.
"I know you, Xu Jin. Is your brother's pneumonia and esophageal cancer healed?"
Xu Jin bowed and said, "Doctor Yu, he has recovered. We had planned to fulfill our promise last weekend and treat you to a nice meal."
"only……"
Xu Jin said with a look of shame, "Last Thursday, we had a little argument and conflict with a guy."
"I'll pay them all back."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Xu Jin, don't worry about it. The promise of treating me to a feast was just a joke."
"Also, the hospital has strict regulations that prohibit doctors from accepting gifts or receiving favors. We will be punished."
"So, even if you came to invite me today, I wouldn't go."
Xu Jin said solemnly, "Doctor Yu, you are our benefactor. We must keep our word."
"Doctor Yu, please wait for us for a few more months."
"We have earned enough money and will definitely come to fulfill our promise to treat you to a good meal."
After saying this, Xu Jin bowed deeply to Yu Zhiming, turned around and trotted away.
Qiao Lei, who was watching this scene from the side, said with a sigh, "It's rare to find someone like him who values his word and keeps his promise nowadays."
"Doctor Yu, he's a man worth making friends with!"
Yu Zhiming glanced at this guy and said, "Hurry up and get ready..."
Please support me by monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, etc.!
