This Doctor Is Too Wealthy Chapter 530 - 464 Let’s Fall in Love2

Xu Pinglin casually touched his teacup with one hand. "What are you planning now? You can’t keep things hanging indefinitely, right?"

"My teacher asked to start working in the outpatient service of the Chinese dicine Departnt the day after tomorrow."

"That’s fine. After all, you’re still in the Chinese dicine Departnt and are also the externally-employed Deputy Director of my Digestion Departnt 1. As long as you continue your professional practice, this working relationship can always exist."

As Xu Pinglin spoke, his eyes glinted. "How about this? Considering you’re feeling stifled now, why don’t you just quit and beco the Deputy Director in my Digestion Departnt 1? I can arrange a hospital-employed position for you. If you want an authorized job, I’ll talk to Li about it. With your current reputation, I believe the hospital will definitely consider it."

Du Heng felt stirred. This proposal didn’t seem like a bad solution at the mont.

But when he thought of Zhonghu Health Center, a strong sense of reluctance welled within him. That was a situation he had painstakingly built up. He had just begun to serve the local ordinary people, helping them with their practical problems. To leave now... he couldn’t bear to, and he felt both reluctant and unwilling to accept it.

He gave a bitter smile and said, "Let’s keep things as they are for now. Once things at the Bureau stabilize, I believe a solution will present itself soon."

Xu Pinglin also smiled. "Alright, you make the decision. However, since you’re going to see patients in the Chinese dicine Departnt, how about helping out in my Digestion Departnt 1 for a day or two each week as well?"

Xu Pinglin wasn’t in a rush. Everyone was still young, and there were plenty of opportunities. Last year, he couldn’t win against Li Jianwei, but in the end, hadn’t Du Heng still beco an externally employed physician in his departnt? So, there was no need to rush. Haste makes waste; it was best to take things slowly.

Upon hearing Xu Pinglin’s request, Du Heng laughed. "How could that possibly work? If I see patients in the Chinese dicine Departnt one day and in Digestion Departnt 1 the next, I’d be inundated with complaints. No, no, that won’t do. Besides, I’m a traditional Chinese dicine practitioner, and when I’m on outpatient service, I rarely order check-ups. However, most people who co to Digestion Departnt 1 are there specifically for check-ups. If not, they would have gone directly to the Chinese dicine Departnt. So, I’d better just stick to seeing patients in the Chinese dicine Departnt."

Xu Pinglin had only been making a casual suggestion. Seeing Du Heng’s refusal, he let the matter drop, especially since their employnt contract didn’t stipulate outpatient service duties.

Ti flew by as they chatted happily in the office about patients and their conditions. More than an hour passed quickly, and it was almost ti to get off work.

Just then, Gu Ping rushed in. "Director, Mr. Du, the patient has had a bowel movent."

Du Heng was delighted and quickly asked, "What was it like?"

"Extrely dark and foul-slling, viscous and unford. Moreover, there were three roundworms, each about five centiters long, and another one exceeding twenty centiters."

Gu Ping answered Du Heng’s question very quickly, trying to minimize the discomfort his answer might cause.

There really was so much, and it was truly disgusting.

Du Heng stood up, gestured to Gu Ping, and they headed towards the hospital room. "Let’s go take a look."

When they arrived at the hospital room, the patient was able to lie flat comfortably, no longer exhibiting the intense pain from before.

Du Heng asked, "Are you in pain now?"

"It still hurts a little here, a sort of throbbing pain, but it’s much milder now."

"Has your fever gone down? Do you still feel hot?"

"I don’t think so anymore."

Du Heng perford a pulse diagnosis again; the patient’s pulse had also recovered significantly.

"Alright, continue taking the previous prescription. Don’t stop. You’ll be better soon."

"Thank you, Doctor."

Du Heng smiled and left the hospital room with Gu Ping. "Tell Doctor Zhou he can remove the mirabilite. The rest of the original prescription remains unchanged."

Gu Ping nodded, indicating he had taken note. "Mr. Du, what are the key points to be aware of when treating this type of condition?"

"First, use acupuncture and bloodletting. This is the quickest way to alleviate pain, stop vomiting, and reduce high fever. It’s crucial that this achieves an imdiate and decisive effect against the disease’s montum, clearing obstacles for syndro differentiation and dication. Otherwise, it will significantly interfere with the subsequent use of dication."

Recalling the treatnt process, Du Heng slowly explained to Gu Ping, "When using Prescriptions, the first point is to achieve a clear syndro differentiation. Act decisively when the opportunity arises; do not hesitate. Acute abdominal conditions like this develop very rapidly. Every second you hesitate increases the patient’s danger.

Secondly, it’s the sa old point we always discuss: you must pay attention to the dosage. You can’t just increase the dosage because the patient has an acute abdominal condition, thinking you’ll achieve rapid results. That’s highly impractical."

Gu Ping carefully committed Du Heng’s words to mory and then asked, "Mr. Du, the prescription you used today—can it be used universally for similar symptoms encountered in the future?"

Du Heng paused in his stride, contemplated for a mont, then said, "Diseases diagnosed by Western dicine, such as acute cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, biliary colic, and acute pancreatitis, often present with traditional Chinese dicine patterns like intense heat in the triple burner, abdominal fullness with dryness and hardness, or heat-bind in the chest. Using Major Bupleurum Decoction as the core formula in such cases is, I believe, a viable approach."

Gu Ping also halted, thought for a mont, and said, "Then, the added dicinals like black plum, Sichuan pepper, coptis, asarum, and mirabilite—were those specifically for treating the roundworm infestation?"

"Yes, this is recorded in the *Golden Chamber* concerning roundworm reversal. You can use it with confidence. However, if you encounter such a disease pattern again, in addition to these dicine ingredients, it’s best to add honey as a guide to achieve the optimal therapeutic effect."
