Chapter 950 She is not pretending to be sick



Tuesday is the day for rounds.

Yu Zhiming, along with Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, Sui Chi, Duan Yi and others, followed Qi Yue's large group of people and examined the dozens of patients that the team was responsible for.

Afterwards, Yu Zhiming assisted the medical team of Wang Chunyuan, Tang Jianxiong, Fang Chen, Liu Yun and others to conduct confirmatory examinations on nine patients whose causes of illness needed further clarification or whose treatment conditions needed confirmation.

Next, Yu Zhiming listened to the reports from Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, Sui Chi, and Duan Yi, and conducted confirmatory examinations on the patients they were responsible for.

After completing the three main tasks mentioned above, the morning was almost over.

Yu Zhiming returned to his office. Zhou Mo came up to him and asked, "How does it feel to have a professional bodyguard?"

this……

Yu Zhiming suddenly discovered that once he got busy, he would forget about Zhang Hai, as if this person did not exist.

However, when I think about it carefully, this person always appears where I can see him or her out of the corner of my eye.

Yu Zhiming nodded gently and said, "Not bad, as expected of a professional. Not only does it not affect my work, but it's everywhere, which is reassuring."

Zhou Mo curled his lips secretly, and said sourly: "Who says they are professionals? They have years of rigorous training and rich security experience. Naturally, they are much better than an amateur like me."

The next moment, she said, "Wash your hands and eat."

Yu Zhiming simply washed up, sat down at the coffee table, picked up his chopsticks and was about to start eating lunch when Zhou Mo spoke again.

"Doctor Yu, there were actually some stubborn old men and women who came to petition again this morning, but there weren't many of them, only about a dozen."

"It would be fine if there were more people, but with only a dozen or so, the hospital will definitely not tolerate them, and all the benefits will definitely be lost."

After a pause, Zhou Mo continued, "This morning, a junior high school classmate who I have a good relationship with came to me for help. His mother has a serious gynecological disease and wants to be transferred to our hospital."

"I'm going to go see Dr. Liu. Do you mind?"

Yu Zhiming took a sip of the Tremella soup, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "I don't mind. It's a normal request like this. You can just do it directly. There's no need to ask for my opinion."

Zhou Mo smiled brightly and said, "I'm kind of using your name to do this, so I have to ask for permission."

"Also, Doctor Yu, you may not know this, but beds in our center are the hardest to come by in the entire hospital right now!"

Yu Zhiming asked doubtfully, "Why do you say that?"

Zhou Mo explained, "Why else? Because our center has the best young doctors and the most powerful medical experts."

"If they still can't solve the problem, there's still Dr. Yu, the ultimate medical expert."

After a two-second pause, Zhou Mo introduced: "Although the patient turnover rate has dropped significantly due to the move to Zhizhen Building and the increase in beds, it is still far ahead of other departments."

Yu Zhiming said with a hint of pride: "This is the result of the joint efforts of the medical staff of the center, not just my own efforts."

Zhou Mo added: "I didn't say that this was mainly due to your efforts, Doctor Yu. Anyway, beds at the center are extremely hard to come by."

Yu Zhiming raised his eyelids, glanced at the guy, and said, "Hurry up and eat, you talk too much..."

The work that started at one o'clock in the afternoon continues.

The main work is to dissect fresh pathological specimens and to diagnose and treat patients who have made appointments for various reasons.

Around 3:30 in the afternoon, a restaurant owner from Beijing came to Zhizhenlou with his 26-year-old sister because of Yu's father and mother.

In the soundproof examination room, Yu Zhiming looked at the chubby, long-haired woman in the wheelchair with her head lowered.

A restaurant owner in his thirties said, "Doctor Yu, my sister developed this strange disease over three years ago. She can't move or stand for long periods of time. If she walks for even a short time, her legs become sore and painful."

"I've been examined at several major hospitals in Beijing, but they couldn't find the cause of the illness."

Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and asked, "How long is that prolonged movement and standing you mentioned?"

The restaurant owner replied: "At home, I can walk from the bedroom to the bathroom and the kitchen, but if I go downstairs to pick up a package, my legs will hurt so much on the way back that I can't stand it."

Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "From your description, it sounds like intermittent claudication. Let's check it out first!"

The so-called intermittent claudication refers to common symptoms of the lower limbs caused by spinal cord, vascular and nerve diseases.

It is mainly manifested by gradually more and more obvious pain, numbness and heaviness in the lower limbs when walking, so that the patient can no longer walk normally and needs to rest.

Usually the symptoms will be relieved after a short rest and walking can be continued, but the lower limb discomfort will reappear after a period of time.

Because this type of claudication occurs repeatedly and intermittently, it is called intermittent claudication.

This is mainly caused by nerve compression caused by lumbar central canal stenosis, or vascular factors caused by various reasons, which result in the arterial blood supply being unable to meet the oxygen and energy required for lower limb muscle movement.

With the help of the restaurant owner, the long-haired woman lay on the examination bed.

Yu Zhiming examined her from head to toe, focusing especially on her legs, feet, spine, and blood circulation in her lower body.

However, apart from discovering that the long-haired woman's leg muscles had atrophy, her bones were slightly porous, and her internal organs were weak due to long-term lack of exercise, Yu Zhiming did not find any other abnormalities worthy of attention.

Yu Zhiming looked through the various tests the long-haired woman had undergone in other hospitals.

Brain MRI, no problems.

Various neurological examinations of the legs and lumbar spine, as well as blood circulation tests, were also normal.

Yu Zhiming was a little stumped, and frankly told the restaurant owner: "From my physical examination, your sister is in good health and has no major health problems."

The restaurant owner met Yu Zhiming's gaze and said, "Doctor Yu, can I have a moment to talk?"

Yu Zhiming nodded, and accompanied by Zhang Hai, he and the restaurant owner came to the corridor outside the soundproof inspection room.

After the soundproof door was restored, the restaurant owner said with a bitter expression, "Doctor Yu, to be honest, I also suspected that my sister was faking illness. However, I've seen her suffer leg pain attacks more than once. The pain would make her face pale, without a trace of blood, and beads of sweat the size of beans would burst out of her face desperately."

"This kind of pain can't be faked. Doctor Yu, you'll know once you see it."

Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "In order to find out the cause of the disease, it seems that the only way is to let your sister's pain relapse."

The three of them returned to the soundproof examination room.

Yu Zhiming looked at the long-haired woman who was still sitting on the examination bed with her head lowered, and said, "In order to find out the cause of the disease, I need your leg pain to relapse once."

"May I?"

The long-haired woman nodded slightly.

The restaurant owner squatted down and carefully helped my sister put on her shoes, then helped her get off the examination bed.

"Doctor Yu, can I take my sister out for a walk?"

Yu Zhiming said, "No, just walk around here. It shouldn't take too long, right?"

The restaurant owner replied, "No, at most if I walk two or three hundred meters straight, it will start to happen."

He comforted his sister, "Don't be afraid. We all know how great Dr. Yu is. This should be your last bout of pain. Just bear with it and it will pass."

"Doctor Yu has found the cause of your illness. Once you're cured, you can go out shopping, play, and travel around like everyone else."

The long-haired woman nodded slightly, let go of her brother's support, and slowly walked away.

The soundproof examination room was only about a dozen square meters in size, and housed an examination bed, a laboratory table, and a first aid kit equipped with various rescue drugs and emergency items. With the addition of several people like them, there was not much space left to move around.

Fortunately, the long-haired woman only needed to walk slowly back and forth.

She took seven or eight steps, turned around, took another seven or eight steps, turned around again, and repeated this process over and over again...

A person swaying back and forth in front of him seemed to have a significant hypnotic effect, causing Yu Zhiming to close his eyes.

When the restaurant owner saw this, he opened his mouth to warn them, but the words stopped at his lips.

Although the other party was young, he was a nationally recognized medical authority and was not someone he could question.

The restaurant owner didn't know that Yu Zhiming had already focused all his attention on the long-haired woman.

For Yu Zhiming, vision is just a distraction. He is more accustomed to and more dependent on collecting information through hearing.

Because this is a soundproof inspection room, Yu Zhiming can collect more sound information.

With his full concentration, he could clearly hear the sound of the long-haired woman's shoes rubbing against the ground, the rubbing of her clothes, and the crackling of her joints...

All these various sounds and echoes gathered in Yu Zhiming's mind one by one, and turned into an almost lifelike figure that kept moving.

Not only that, at the heart of this figure, there was a heart contracting and expanding, pumping blood that flowed continuously through the major blood vessels to all parts of the body...

Suddenly, a crisp sound arose, instantly attracting Yu Zhiming's entire attention.

The long-haired woman actually dislocated the second joint of her left ring finger.

What the hell is this?

Just when Yu Zhiming was full of doubts, he was suddenly surprised to find that the femoral artery in the long-haired woman's left thigh was spasming and twisting.

this……

This will inevitably lead to a significant reduction in blood supply to the femoral artery in the left leg, causing severe pain in the left leg due to acute ischemia.

Yu Zhiming opened his eyes and looked at the long-haired woman who was still walking slowly back and forth with her head down.

She was definitely not faking illness.

She simply induced femoral artery spasm on her own initiative, which led to acute ischemic pain in her left leg.

Yu Zhiming just couldn't understand why the dislocation of the second joint of the left ring finger could cause spasm of the femoral artery in his left leg.

This should involve a complex neural reflex in the brain or spine...

While Yu Zhiming was thinking, an urgent voice sounded in his ears, "Doctor Yu, my sister is having an attack. The pain is coming on."

"Look, check it out..."
