"Your fecal occult blood test is positive, and there's quite a bit of bleeding. It could be either intestinal or gastric bleeding. You must take this seriously."
The doctor, wearing a na tag that read Liang Hua, said with a frown.
He then picked up another test report.
"This report shows you also have mild anemia, which is likely due to internal bleeding causing blood loss and thus anemia, especially since your blood pressure is relatively low. In summary, all the reports indicate there's a problem in your body. Tonight after dinner, don't eat anything, and tomorrow morning don't eat anything either. Co directly here for a gastroscopy to determine the exact location of the lesion."
Liang Hua's expression was serious because his experience told him that this lady's situation wasn't simple, but it's difficult to judge just from these reports. Further testing is essential.
Anyway, a gastroscopy is definitely necessary.
"Okay, okay, okay."
"Dr. Liang, we understand."
The couple felt a bit apprehensive upon hearing this, but since it had already happened, they could only nod in agreent.
"Rember, don't eat or drink anything. If possible, co over first thing in the morning. You have to be responsible for your life and also for these two children, understood?"
This doctor from the Ergency Departnt, Liang Hua, said very seriously.
So people are told not to eat anything, and then so think water is okay, so they drink water. In fact, for both a regular gastroscopy and a painless gastroscopy, water should not be consud.
For the forr, at least two hours without water, and for the latter, at least four to six hours.
It's not that doctors lack empathy. After all, it's not like there's any enmity involved.
The main issue is that drinking water during a gastroscopy can reduce the clarity of the gastric mucosa, concealing subtle lesions and leading to missed diagnoses.
Moreover, with painless gastroscopy, since intravenous anesthesia is used during the examination, the throat reflex and swallowing function might not have recovered, and drinking water too early may cause coughing, aspiration, or even lead to lung infections.
In severe cases, it could even result in death.
So, it's not that doctors lack compassion; they prioritize saving lives.
"I, I understand, doctor."
Du Cai Zhi replied.
"Alright then, go ho for now. I've scheduled the gastroscopy for you. Just co directly for the examination tomorrow morning."
The doctor nodded his head.
With that, the two of them walked out of the consultation room.
"How is it, Cai Zhi? What did the doctor say?"
Tian Yidan and her husband imdiately approached, even reaching out to help take the baby from her arms.
Their eldest son was very well-behaved, waiting outside all the while.
After all, everyone was from the sa neighborhood.
So they were familiar with each other, and the children often played together without being shy with anyone.
"The doctor said the situation doesn't seem great. It's either intestinal bleeding or gastric bleeding. Specifically, we'll have to see after tomorrow's gastroscopy."
Du Cai Zhi felt a bit downhearted.
"This..."
Tian Yidan's husband was at a loss for words.
At this mont, he looked toward his wife.
"Cai Zhi, let's wait for tomorrow's examination. How about you don't go back tonight, co for the check first thing in the morning, and then we'll decide after the results co out? You see, Dr. Zhang has treated so many people. Even if it really is cancer, it doesn't necessarily an death, right? Dr. Zhang also said that with active treatnt, you can live a long ti. And you've seen it, the netizens say Dr. Zhang sneaks people away from the front of the Grim Reaper. Believe in yourself, you'll be fine. As for the money, let's save your life first. After all, the children are still so young."
Tian Yidan urged Du Cai Zhi.
It's better not to go back tonight.
After the examination tomorrow, go back ho.
If it really is cancer, then focus on treatnt.
As for the money, they could try and gather a bit from everyone for help.
First, save the life.
Regarding life-saving matters, people are likely to help a bit, at least do their best.
Also, today the township chief and others ntioned that there's so assistance available from the township, which can be applied for when needed.
"Yes, I was just thinking the sa. Since the examination is so early tomorrow, we might as well stay here in town tonight and wait for the results before going back."
Du Cai Zhi ntioned.
She had just discussed it a bit with her husband.
"Right! It takes two and a half hours to go back! Tomorrow if you get up early to co, it's a hassle. Just stay at a local hotel tonight with the two kids."
Tian Yidan agreed with her plan.
"Tomorrow when we co over, we'll bring so diapers for you, too."
She added.
"Sister-in-law Yidan, there's no need, really. We'll just buy them here in town, considering diapers are always needed."
Jia Hui responded at once.
Anyway, diapers are consumables, and buying them in town is the sa.
No need to go ho specifically to retrieve them.
"Alright, alright, then it's up to you. Getting treated is the priority, actively seek treatnt, the two children are still young."
Tian Yidan agreed when Jia Hui ntioned buying them in town.
As they said, items like diapers are consud regularly.
They're always needed.
"We will... Wait, did Third Granny and the others co out yet?"
Suddenly, Du Cai Zhi noticed that Third Granny and Third Uncle hadn't co out yet.
Her expression was puzzled.
Had they stayed in the office for so long?
"Not yet, and I'm not sure what they are discussing inside, but I feel like Third Granny's tumor situation might be significant, and I wonder if it's related to the C-section from twenty years ago."
