Chapter 570: Chapter 244: The Miserable Patient, Bian Que’s Third Visit to Cai Henggong_3

So serious illnesses, with treatnt costs running into hundreds of thousands, are truly beyond the ans of an average family. Even if they can bear it, the family could still fall back into poverty because of the illness.

Zhou Can finished checking on the gastric cancer patient in bed 77, then looked at the patient with liver cirrhosis in bed 79.

At present, the patient’s condition was about the sa as yesterday.

There had been no obvious deterioration.

He really hoped that Director Shang would agree to arrange for this patient to have a venography soon.

Finding the cause earlier allows for earlier treatnt.

Patients with non-severe conditions like this one are generally not the main concern for attending physicians.

Because they focus on so key patients.

Later, Zhou Can might have to take the initiative to talk to Director Shang again about arranging an examination for the patient in bed 79.

After checking this ward, he moved to the ward housing the patient in bed 71.

It had been agreed yesterday that surgery would be scheduled for the patient today.

Zhou Can specifically explained preoperative procedures to the family mbers.

As for the preoperative discussion and signing, it would have to wait until later.

After attending to his own patients’ beds.

Zhou Can helped the other two resident doctors in his group take a look at other beds.

The patient in bed 72 was still stable, and as he expected, the patient in bed 73 was clearly getting better. No longer continuously groaning.

This ant the patient’s stomach wasn’t as pained.

Instead, it was the patient’s wife, the stubborn old lady, who was leaning on the bed rail, groaning every few seconds.

Her face looked particularly terrifying.

Pallid and bloodless.

Even her groaning sounded weak and feeble, showing extre weakness.

“Auntie, auntie, are you okay?”

Zhou Can gently nudged her.

“Uh… My stomach hurts badly, I feel dizzy, and I keep getting chills. Doctor, could you please help get a bottle of hot water? I really can’t walk.”

She must have been running to the toilet all night.

And with persistent severe diarrhea, dehydration and weakness can set in quickly.

“Okay! Is this the hot water bottle?”

“Mm! Thank you…”

The old lady nodded weakly.

Zhou Can got her a bottle of hot water and poured a glass for each of the couple.

Seeing the old lady in such a state filled him with concern.

Feeling cold isn’t a good sign.

In terms of traditional Chinese dicine, this is called invasion of cold evil, leading to stagnation of qi, stasis of blood, and imbalance of yin and yang in the body.

“You’re so sick; you should go see a doctor right away! You can’t delay an illness like this!”

Zhou Can once again urged her.

It really felt like history repeating itself, like Bian Que and Cai Henggong.

The first ti not treated, the second ti still not treated; by the third ti, the disease was too advanced for dicine to help.

Normally, Salmonella infection causes diarrhea, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, etc. But for the old lady to be so severely ill within just over a day, to the point where she can’t even get water herself or lift her head, was unimaginable.

It also suggests that her body’s defense against Salmonella might have completely collapsed.

“It’s okay, I have a strong body, I’ll get over it. My husband is already feeling a lot better today, isn’t he? I’ll wait until tomorrow; I’m sure I’ll get better.”

The old lady still refused to seek dical attention.

Zhou Can didn’t persist but went straight to the hallway to check on the vomiting patient admitted last evening.

The condition had not further deteriorated.

But a large worm in the patient’s head certainly needed to be dealt with as soon as possible.

If it’s delayed, I’m really worried about serious problems.

If the worm gets agitated and moves to the brainstem area, the patient could need ergency rescue at any minute.

Let’s see what Director Shang and Neurosurgery have coordinated later!

If no good, Zhou Can guessed he would have to put his face out there again and help coordinate.

Back in the office, he just happened to bump into Yu Xin and Duan Zifu.

“Good morning, Dr. Zhou!”

“Good morning, everyone!”

Zhou Can noticed there were already five doctors in the office, even Dr. Chi was actively smiling and greeting him.

He could only respond in the sa way.

“Dr. Yu, I just went on rounds in the ward and saw that the old lady in bed 73 had worsened; she didn’t even have the strength to lift her head. I advised her to go register and see a doctor imdiately, but she didn’t agree. I think this is very dangerous and can’t be delayed. You should report the situation to the associate director of the departnt or Director Shang. If a family mber accompanying a patient dies in the hospital, that’s a serious matter.”

Zhou Can had co all the way from the Ergency Departnt, having seen all sorts of strange things.

It has happened where the patient was fine, but a family mber accompanying them suddenly dies in the hospital.

Once, a family mber was smoking in the elevator, and a doctor from Cardiothoracic Surgery advised him a couple of tis; then the family mber, with a very hot temper, started arguing with the doctor.

Next thing, without arguing much, the family mber suddenly clutched his chest and fell to the ground.

Afterward, that family mber died of a heart attack.

The ridiculous part is, the relatives of that family mber sued the doctor involved.
