The next day, when He Xiyan woke up again, it was already more than ten o’clock in the morning. She was woken up by pain, which was like a knife stirring in her stomach. Her face was quite pale, her forehead sweaty and cold, and even her clothes were drenched through.
She rushed into the bathroom, sat on the toilet, and soon had diarrhea. Within one hour, she had frequented the bathroom three times, all water-like excrement, which almost emptied her whole body.
After she left the bathroom, she felt as if she had collapsed, without any strength.
Following that came the twitch from the stomach, one after another, which was like a cramp.
It was so painful that He Xiyan’s face turned paler and paler. She squatted down quickly, caressing her painful stomach while gasping heavily. The symptoms, however, had not been alleviated at all. A few minutes later, she had to go to the bathroom again. Soon, with the sharp pain ing from her stomach, she vomited out everything she had eaten yesterday. Then she vomited again, and this time, she vomited sour water, in which there were even some blood traces.
The moment she saw the blood trace, her whole body trembled violently. Having no strength at all, she felt as if she lost her center of gravity, falling onto the cold floor of the bathroom directly. She huddled herself up, pale as paper, looking extremely painful.
After quite a while, she went back to the bedroom with the support of the wall. With shaking hands, she picked up the phone at the bedside and called the hotel service desk.
A few minutes later, two waiters and the manager on duty arrived. Seeing her huddling in bed and sweating all over, they were also shocked.
“Miss He…”
One waiter rushed to help He Xiyan up. The other took out the mobile phone and called the first-aid number 120.
Guests could not have any life danger in the hotel. Otherwise, it would affect their hotel’s business.
He Xiyan was already in such great pains that she could hardly speak. She rested her hand on the waiter’s shoulder, saying in a hoarse and painful voice, “Send, send me to the hospital, emergency department, gastrointestinal department. Don’t wait for the ambulance. Thank you.”
The waiter patted her on the back, worried as well. Although there were occasional emergencies happening in the hotel, yet this guest looked as if she caught a heart attack.
“Are you sure it’s a gastrointestinal problem?” Asked the waiter, who had helped her out of the hotel already. Then he called the driver of the hotel and helped He Xiyan into a business car, who was silent due to pain.
After 20 minutes, they arrived at the nearest first-class hospital, the Second People’s Hospital in Ye City. Upon arriving at the hospital, He Xiyan was directly rushed into the emergency room for a series of examinations because of emergent abdominal pain and gastric bleeding.
On the bed, He Xiyan bit her lips tightly. Her symptoms were getting worse and worse. Her lips had begun to crack. Symptoms of severe dehydration had already shown out.
After the examination, the doctor said, “Ms. He, you get acute gastroenteritis, quite serious now. Now you have the symptoms of gastric bleeding. I’ll prescribe you some medicine for emergent situations. You take it first, and then go to the inpatient department to get the hospitalization procedure down and receive infusion. In addition, you should inform your family members as soon as possible and let them e to take care of you.” The doctor reminded her as he prescribed, since he had just found that this patient actually came alone.
