Chapter 351: Nurse Chen Xia's Reminder, a Quarrel
This is a hemophilia patient, he is not very old, only seven or eight years old, and he is a boy.
"Doctor Li, I just saw a news report a few days ago that said you cured a hemophilia patient with traditional Chinese medicine, so I brought my son here for treatment."
The little boy's mother looked fair-skinned and beautiful, very young.
The clothes she wears are also very fashionable.
But the little boy's father or other family members were not seen.
"Let me see the test results first!"
Li Quan took the checklist from Ye Ru and took a look at it.
Hemophilia A, also known as factor VIII procoagulant deficiency, is a sex-linked recessive genetic disease that is passed down from female to male.
"According to the test results, your son has type A hemophilia, which is passed down from mother to son. The mother is not affected, but the son is."
Li Quan said to the woman.
"Yes, I know. When my son was four years old, he had an attack. He was saved after emergency treatment. It was from that time that I learned about hemophilia, a terrible genetic disease."
The boy's mother still feels scared when she talks about what happened a few years ago.
"Since then, I have always asked my son to take medicine on time. I am afraid that he will suddenly get sick again one day. I have been living in fear every day in the past few years. I am even more worried about how he will get married and have children when he grows up? How will he live a normal life?"
As the boy's mother spoke, tears began to flow.
"Don't cry, Mom. I'm a little man and I'm not afraid of anything!" The little boy was quite sensible. He raised his little hand and gently wiped away his mother's tears.
This heartwarming gesture made the woman's tears flow uncontrollably.
"Little boy, you are awesome!" Li Quan praised the little boy sincerely. "Come, put your hands flat on the table, and let uncle check them for you."
Li Quan has developed a good habit before treating patients. Even if the patient has undergone various examinations using modern technology, Li Quan will still use the techniques of visual diagnosis, auscultation and pulse feeling to examine the patient again.
In addition to filling in the gaps , you can also upgrade the experience points of these three diagnostic medical skills.
He diagnosed the little boy and found no other major problems except hemophilia.
"I can treat your son's hemophilia with Chinese medicine. But I can't guarantee a 100% cure, as there is a certain chance of failure. About 10 out of 100 hemophilia patients will fail treatment. Even if it can't be cured, it will definitely alleviate his symptoms, and there won't be any harm. You can carefully consider whether to accept Chinese medicine treatment."
Li Quan told the family members about some of the risks and let them make their own decisions.
"As long as there is no harm, I am willing to let my son give it a try no matter how much it costs." The woman agreed without thinking.
"This should be a big deal. Do you need to discuss it with the child's father?" Li Quan asked in a responsible manner.
“No need!”
The woman answered decisively.
"Okay, I'll treat the children now. Doctor Ye, take them to the treatment room!"
After Ye Ru led the patient in, Li Quan looked at the nurse Chen Xia.
"Chen Xia, you are responsible for filming the treatment process on site."
"OK!"
Chen Xia understood.
“The process of treating hemophilia is extremely long, and you only have to film the important parts.”
After giving the instructions, Li Quan also followed him into the treatment room.
Li Quan asked about each of the bone disease patients he had just treated.
Or maybe it was a patient who had previously sought treatment from Li Quan and thought his medical skills were very good and recommended him to her.
Or maybe he watched Li Quan’s Douyin video and then came to him.
As Li Quan’s Douyin followers continue to increase, more and more people are watching his videos on traditional Chinese medicine bone setting and bone reduction.
The huge fan base made the Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopedics clinic very popular on the second day of its opening.
I believe that as the word of mouth continues to spread, Li Quan’s reputation will grow, and the number of patients seeking treatment will continue to increase.
The orthopedic business has shown signs of taking off.
Next, what Li Quan needs to do is to expand the hematology business.
"Little boy, it will be a little painful when uncle gives you an injection. You are a little man, you must be brave like your father, and you can't cry!" Li Quan was ready and comforted the little boy lying on the treatment bed with a gentle voice.
"I don't have a dad!"
The little boy said coldly, his face full of unhappiness.
Li Quan was stunned.
The boy's mother quickly explained with an apologetic look on her face, "Doctor Li, children are young and naive, please don't make it a fuss. I'm a single mother, and I was young and naive... Well, let's not talk about the past. Please don't make it a fuss with my son."
When the woman talked about the past, her tone was full of bitterness and her facial expression was full of self-mockery and loneliness.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned your sad story. Don't worry, I will do my best to treat your son."
Not only did Li Quan not look down on this woman, but he thought she was very remarkable.
Some girls are deceived by scumbag men because of their ignorance.
Or maybe she got pregnant simply out of ignorance and desire for temporary happiness.
After giving birth to their children, instead of thinking about being responsible, they simply put the children in plastic bags and throw them into the trash can.
There are even more cruel and ignorant girls who throw their babies off the building after giving birth.
In themselves, they are worthy of sympathy.
But what they did was really infuriating.
It goes without saying that Li Quan carefully treated the boy.
…
An hour later, Li Quan walked out of the treatment room with a tired face.
He would feel relieved if he could wait until Ye Ru finished her training and became a master.
"Hello, Doctor Li!"
As soon as he came out of the treatment room, Li Quan saw a middle-aged couple with a pale, bald child sitting outside waiting.
Seeing Li Quan coming out of the treatment room, they quickly stood up and greeted him respectfully.
"Hello! Is this... the child sick?" Li Quan could tell at a glance that the thirteen or fourteen-year-old child must have undergone multiple chemotherapy sessions, which led to his bald head.
The child was not only pale, but also extremely thin, and his eyes were dull.
"Oh, Doctor Li, I received them when you were not here. Their son had a nosebleed when he was in the third year of junior high school. After he was taken to the hospital for treatment, he was diagnosed with leukemia. He received three rounds of chemotherapy at the Provincial People's Hospital, but his condition has not been stable. The hospital told them that the boy's life span is unlikely to exceed three months."
"This time, they read the news about your successful cure of leukemia and transferred to our hospital for treatment."
Ye Ru quickly explained the situation to Li Quan.
"Well, let me take a look at the test results first. Please take a seat!"
Li Quan took the patient's test results and checked them.
"According to the test results, your child has acute lymphoblastic leukemia, which belongs to the L2 type of ALL. Judging from the child's blood picture, it is already in the middle and late stages. Although the condition , it has also damaged the child's normal immune system."
"Excuse me, I have treated a patient with advanced leukemia. I was able to control her condition, but curing her is more than a hundred times more difficult than curing her with early-stage leukemia."
"If you are willing to try Chinese medicine, I can take your child in and try to treat him with Chinese medicine."
Li Quan sought the opinions of the patient's family.
If the disease can be cured, it will be cured. If it cannot be cured, he will inform the family of the risks.
Let the family decide for themselves.
"Doctor Li, we only have this one son. The attending physician at the Provincial People's Hospital has clearly told us that the child may not be able to wait until the day of the bone marrow transplant. We are willing to trust you and use your traditional Chinese medicine treatment instead."
The child's father looked sad.
This was an unbearable disaster for the family.
Li Quan felt that this family was very pitiful.
"Okay, Doctor Ye, let's arrange for their hospitalization first." Li Quan nodded, and out of compassion as a doctor, he decided to admit the child.
"Doctor Li, we need you inside!"
Chen Xia patted Li Quan's shoulder gently.
Li Quan was a little puzzled. Didn’t the single mother just come out with her child?
What did Chen Xia ask him to do inside?
He knew that Chen Xia must have something wrong when she called him.
I immediately followed him into the treatment room.
"Doctor Li, I know you have a kind heart, but if you want to treat that child, I suggest you make sure the family signs a risk commitment letter."
Chen Xia said seriously.
"We don't practice this in traditional Chinese medicine!" Li Quan waved his hand.
"No, if it were another patient, I wouldn't advise you so firmly. This patient must sign." Chen Xia's attitude was extremely firm.
"Well... okay!" Li Quan's Traditional Chinese Medicine Department had just opened, and he didn't want to alienate his colleagues.
Anyway, signing a risk commitment letter is not a big deal.
It's just a normal hospital procedure.
After leaving the treatment room, Li Quan asked Ye Ru to take a risk commitment letter for the patient's family to sign.
The boy's parents hesitated for a moment, and finally Ye Ru told them that if they didn't sign, their child would not be admitted to the hospital.
The couple then signed and put their fingerprints on the document.
After this matter was settled, Li Quan didn't care too much about it.
As per usual practice, take the child's pulse.
The child's condition was worse than he had imagined, with an extremely weak and intermittent pulse.
This means that the child’s current physical condition is like a candle that is about to burn out, and his life has reached its end.
No wonder the Provincial People’s Hospital asserted that the child would not survive more than three months.
The child's condition was so serious that Li Quan did not dare to delay and started treatment immediately.
…
After a busy period, I finally boosted the child's qi and blood, and prescribed Chinese medicine for the child to take.
As for teaching the Five Animal Exercises to his children, Li Quan had no such idea.
Regardless of whether he is considered to be self-centered or selfish, he has seen the power of the Five Animal Play and will never pass it on to others easily.
At least the breathing method will never be easily passed on to others.
After boosting the child's qi and blood, Li Quan found that the effect was far from what he expected.
The child's body is too weak, which is the main reason why the boost of qi and blood cannot achieve the expected effect.
We also have to find a way to ask the family to get some nutritious food for the boy.
Li Quan specially prescribed a diet therapy recipe for family members to prepare it themselves.
Before I knew it, the morning had passed.
It was almost time for lunch, and Li Quan's Traditional Chinese Medicine Department admitted two inpatients.
We have to find a way to prescribe medicine for that old lady as soon as possible.
While we are having dinner, let’s take a closer look at how the Black Jade Ointment is priced.
In addition, doctors in hospitals have strict regulations and procedures for using medication.
Li Quan had to find ways to solve all these problems on his own.
"It's time for dinner. Someone must stay here. Let's take turns to eat!" Li Quan said to several medical staff from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department.
"I'm not hungry yet. Doctor Li and Doctor Ye go first!" Nurse Chen Xia took the initiative to stay and look after the ward.
"Okay, I'll be back to take your turn after I finish eating."
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Department has limited staff and can only make flexible arrangements.
It is especially troublesome at night.
However, admitting patients to the hospital is not only due to medical conditions, but also to generate revenue for the department.
Working the night shift is likely to become the norm in the future.
On the way to the cafeteria, Li Quan kept his head down thinking.
The TCM department is currently divided into orthopedics and hematology. However, the inpatient area should be set up together for easier management.
At least this should be done for now to save manpower as much as possible.
Working the night shift is a very tiring job.
In addition, before cooperating with He Youlong and successfully producing the finished product of the Black Jade Ointment, it was necessary to discuss with the hospital.
First of all, the formula will not be leaked out, Li Quan must keep it in his own hands.
Second, the issue of pricing.
In addition, the use of medication must comply with the hospital's management regulations.
To put it more clearly, it means legalization.
In this matter, you should first discuss countermeasures with the teacher.
Just then, Li Quan's cell phone rang.
"Doctor Li Quan, I'm Director Hu from the hospital office. I have something important to discuss now. Would it be convenient for you to come to the hospital office?" Director Hu was very polite to Li Quan.
"Okay, I'll be there right away!"
Li Quan frowned.
The hospital office invited him to discuss important matters, and he certainly couldn't refuse.
When people discuss with you, it's to give him face.
If he really has a low IQ, he should tell Director Hu that he wants to eat now and come back after he finishes eating. Then he would be really mentally retarded.
"Doctor Ye, Doctor Luo, please go eat first. I need to go to the hospital for some work."
Li Quan hurried to the hospital office.
He didn't know what Director Hu wanted him to discuss at this time?
Soon, Li Quan arrived at the hospital office.
This is not the first or second time he has come here, so he is quite familiar with the place.
Before I even entered, I heard a heated argument coming from inside.
Don't think that all doctors are detached from the world and have no desires or demands. That is what they do in front of their patients.
Behind the scenes, doctors are no different from ordinary people.
There are also various needs.
“Boom boom boom!”
Li Quan knocked on the door.
"Doctor Li is here, please come in!" Director Tan greeted him kindly.
Signaled Li Quan to sit down and discuss the matter.
As soon as Li Quan entered the door, he felt four hateful gazes coming towards him.
It was Deputy Director Ye and Director Pang from the Orthopedics Department who were arguing fiercely just now. At this moment, it was also these two who were looking at Li Quan with cold and hostile eyes.
Li Quan's teacher, Professor Liu, had a gloomy face and was breathing heavily.
It seemed that he was very angry with these two people.
"Professor Liu, now that your apprentice is here, we can confront each other face to face. This morning I heard someone say that there were many patients waiting in line at the TCM orthopedics department, but I didn't believe it. Then I rushed over and saw that there was really a long line. If you hadn't called, how could such a newly opened, simple TCM orthopedics clinic have so many patients?"
"Yesterday you told the staff at the registration window to direct suitable orthopedic patients to the TCM orthopedic department, and we accepted it. Today, you went even further and directly directed all orthopedic patients there. Are the dozen or so doctors and nurses in our orthopedic department going to starve?"
Deputy Director Ye is willing to be a vanguard soldier in the charge.
