150: Chapter 150: Sleeping Pills Are Useless 150: Chapter 150: Sleeping Pills Are Useless Liu Ying was still at work.
When she received her son’s call, she hurriedly drove back ho.
Upon returning ho, she saw her son’s face and eyes, which looked quite different from usual.
“Wei, how are you feeling?”
“Mom, I really want to sleep, but I just can’t.”
Now, the excitent had disappeared, but the pain of being unable to sleep beca more and more pronounced.
When he felt his nerves becoming a bit chaotic, Zhang Wei felt increasingly uncomfortable.
Liu Ying hurriedly helped Zhang Wei into the car, then drove to a major hospital in Jinling.
Liu Ying first registered Zhang Wei for an internal dicine appointnt.
While waiting in line, they entered an internal dicine office for an examination.
The attending physician, wearing a mask, looked at Zhang Wei and asked, “What discomfort are you experiencing?”
“Since yesterday, I’ve been very excited.
I didn’t sleep at all last night, and this morning, I suddenly felt very sleepy, but couldn’t fall asleep.”
Zhang Wei briefly explained his condition.
In fact, he had already begun to feel unable to think normally.
Simple sentences were organized well, but anything more complicated might not be manageable.
The internal dicine doctor examined Zhang Wei’s eyes, throat, and even checked his pulse, tongue, and pulse rate.
In the end, the attending physician just deduced that Zhang Wei might be overly excited and prescribed so calming dicine for him to drink.
“I’ll prescribe so calming dicine for you.
Drink it and see how it works.
If it doesn’t work, I’ll then prescribe so sleeping pills.”
The attending physician prescribed so simple calming dicines for Zhang Wei, but no sleeping pills for the ti being.
Liu Ying thanked the doctor, took the prescription and went to the pharmacy with Zhang Wei to buy the dicine, and then went ho to give it to him.
These calming dicines were simple traditional Chinese dicines as well as Western dicines.
After Zhang Wei took the prescribed traditional Chinese dicine, he was advised to rest.
Zhang Wei took the dicine, went back to his room, and lay down on the big bed to rest.
After an unknown amount of ti, Zhang Wei felt more and more dizzy, nauseous and vomited, and his eyes were sore, but he still couldn’t sleep.
Not knowing how long he lay there with his eyes closed, he got up again when Liu Ying was preparing dinner in the kitchen and saw Zhang Wei walking over with bloodshot eyes.
“Wei, still can’t sleep?”
Liu Ying asked curiously.
“Mom, I really can’t sleep.”
He had thought that taking the dicine prescribed by the doctor would help him sleep, but now he felt even more miserable.
“Then I’ll take you to the hospital again.”
Seeing Zhang Wei’s haggard and flushed face, Liu Ying began to worry.
At first, she thought it was just a common case of insomnia, but now it seed much more serious.
Zhang Wei hadn’t slept for two days and a night, and the feeling of his brain urging him to rest but being unable to sleep was truly unbearable.
Zhang Wei followed Liu Ying back to the hospital, but the previous attending physician had already left, and another doctor examined Zhang Wei.
Based on Zhang Wei’s symptoms, this doctor diagnosed him with comprehensive insomnia.
Since the usual dicines had no effect, he prescribed sleeping pills.
Liu Ying had already arranged for a hospital room for Zhang Wei and, after obtaining the sleeping pills, instructed the nurse to prepare warm water for him.
Liu Ying took out two sleeping pills and mixed them with warm water for Zhang Wei to take.
Zhang Wei had never taken sleeping pills before, so he took them with warm water and then lay down on the bed with his eyes closed.
He thought the sleeping pills would work quickly, but even after ten minutes, there was no effect.
Half an hour passed, but there was still no effect.
Realizing he still couldn’t sleep, he felt increasingly miserable and got out of bed.
If this went on, Zhang Wei felt like he was going to go crazy.
Liu Ying, who was sitting nearby, saw Zhang Wei get up and asked, “Still not working?”
“Mom, it’s not working at all.”
Zhang Wei replied.
It was already late, well past dinner ti, and Liu Ying had no ti to go back and cook.
She called Zhang Dongliang to inform him about Zhang Wei’s condition.
When Zhang Dongliang hurriedly arrived, he noticed that his son’s face and expression were very different.
Experiencing continuous lack of sleep was normal, especially since Zhang Wei had recently been expelled from school, which might have stimulated and affected his insomnia.
“Wei, don’t think about anything.
Just close your eyes and rest quietly.”
Zhang Wei listened to his father’s words, went back to bed, and lay down.
It was indeed very quiet in the hospital room, but even with his eyes closed, he still couldn’t sleep.
After an unknown amount of ti, Zhang Wei opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at Zhang Dongliang and Liu Ying, saying, “Mom, Dad, I’m about to go crazy.
Ask if the hospital has any dication that can directly make sleep.”
Besides sleeping pills, there were other dicines that could induce sleep directly.
When Zhang Dongliang went to find a doctor, the doctor, considering Zhang Wei’s current condition, didn’t dare prescribe dication casually, as the sleeping pills had no effect, indicating that Zhang Wei’s condition was severe.
The doctor advised Zhang Wei to undergo a full-body examination.
Zhang Wei and his parents went to various departnts for tests.
Fortunately, the doctors hadn’t yet gone off duty, or they would have had to go to another hospital for the examination.
After the check-ups, only so results were available imdiately, while most would take a day or two.
Back in their hospital room, Liu Ying told Zhang Wei to lie down and sleep, advising him to close his eyes and rest a bit, whether or not he could fall asleep.
Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu returned to her ho for dinner, then went back to the classroom for self-study.
They only saw Zhang Wei’s four followers but didn’t see Zhang Wei.
Ye Qiu knew that Zhang Wei’s insomnia symptoms had started, and this was just the beginning.
It would slowly tornt Zhang Wei until he felt life was worse than death.
Su Luoluo found that she felt much better after Ye Qiu’s treatnt in the afternoon.
Her dizziness, nausea, and the urge to vomit had completely disappeared.
However, the pain in her neck and shoulders hadn’t gone away.
She wondered if Ye Qiu could cure her entirely.
But Ye Qiu, sitting there typing, didn’t look at her.
As self-study ti approached, Ye Qiu packed up his laptop, and he and Liu Lingxiu went downstairs.
Ye Qiu rode his bike to take Liu Lingxiu ho and then rode his e-bike back to his old neighborhood.
