Chapter 1017: Chapter 843 The Excellent Weight Loss Spokesperson_3 Chapter 1017: Chapter 843 The Excellent Weight Loss Spokesperson_3 Hypokalemia itself can cause a reduction in muscle contraction strength, leading to intestinal paralysis, or insufficient peristaltic movent of the intestines, thus causing an intestinal obstruction, which belongs to a type of dynamic intestinal obstruction.
There’s a condition called periodic hypokalemic paralysis, which can also cause muscle weakness, typically more pronounced in the limbs, with the lower limbs more affected than the upper ones, and the symptoms improve after potassium supplentation. This patient doesn’t show muscle weakness in the limbs, and after supplenting with potassium, they have been normal for several days now, with no alleviation of symptoms; Dr. Chen has ruled out this diagnosis.
Surgeons, as compared to internal doctors, have a weaker point in diagnostics; internal doctors are more adept at diagnosis.
In general, this situation could also be caused by intestinal adhesion, but Dr. Chen is currently baffled, as the patient has never had surgery before and has never had diseases like digestive system tuberculosis or peritonitis, which makes the possibility of intestinal adhesion exceedingly small.
This case is indeed a bit strange, persistent abdominal distention and abdominal pain, pseudo-intestinal obstruction, Yang Ping recalls these keywords in his mind.
“During our outpatient colonoscopy, we took multiple samples of the intestinal mucosa for pathological examination and found no abnormalities. It’s really odd.”
Dr. Chen truly can’t think of any other disease that would behave like this; he had considered so rare diseases, but ruled each one out.
“We have even conducted bacterial group analyses as part of our research, with our laboratory currently focusing on intestinal bacteria, so we pay special attention to this area.”
“Let’s first take a look at the patient.”
Yang Ping couldn’t find any clues from the case history.
“What does the patient do for work?” Yang Ping asked further.
Dr. Chen replied, “Live-streaming sales.”
It seems to be quite popular now. Yang Ping heard that Qin Xiaowei, who used to be a bare-handed rock climber, is now into live-streaming sales, selling products related to outdoor sports and is very successful, making a good deal of money.
“What product does she sell?” Yang Ping asked in detail.
“Weight loss products!”
“Weight loss products?”
“It shouldn’t be related to this. She said she doesn’t touch the product at all, let alone consu it. Moreover, she only got into the live-streaming sales of weight loss products in recent months. This girl is quite clever; she realized she was very thin, especially since she had lost weight rapidly in recent months, so she decided to use her condition to promote weight loss products. It just so happened that a boss noticed this trait in her and offered her the job to do live sales. She’s probably articulate and affable, and with her ‘bone sensation’ look, her performance is very good,” Dr. Chen explained.
The physician in charge imdiately added, “She said that after discovering this unique condition, she used her thinness to her advantage because she has a good appearance. While seeking dical attention, she interviewed with so weight loss product companies. However, she was spotted by a boss of one such company, who imdiately decided to train her to beco a host to sell their products.”
“They didn’t even need to use special effects; they used her as the model directly, letting everyone see what ‘bone sensation’ looks like on cara.”
“It was also a stroke of luck. Originally, the boss had hired a few girls to demonstrate the weight loss process, aiming for a ‘bone sensation’ modeling effect. To achieve this, the boss had a fitness trainer train these girls and strictly limited their daily food intake, but the results were still unsatisfactory. In a panic that his boasts would fall through, the boss gave the girls laxatives, which maybe worked too well because one of them ended up dehydrated and had to be rescued in the hospital, costing the boss a lot of money.”
“Scared by the incident, the boss dared not do that again and could only look for an already suitable model.”
“After the shift to her, she didn’t have to do anything, and she incredibly lost about 66 pounds in three months, instantly making the boss’s products a hit. However, seeing her lose weight so rapidly, the boss was afraid sothing might go wrong and advised her to take so ti off to recuperate.”
“In fact, she couldn’t stand it anymore herself and wanted to see a doctor properly.”
“Now, even as she’s hospitalized, there’s a weight loss product boss looking to collaborate with her.”
After the physician in charge finished speaking, Dr. Chen led the way: “Let’s go see the patient together.”
