They always thought.
Despite only starting to learn about traditional Chinese dicine (TCM) after entering university.
If they worked hard enough.
They wouldn’t be much worse than those from dical families.
But unexpectedly.
During their internship at Hai City University, they encountered Chen Mu.
Although Chen Mu was a bit older than them.
If you really calculate it carefully.
Chen Mu wasn’t much older than them by a few years.
With such a small age difference, compared to Chen Mu’s current level, it seed like an insurmountable gap.
Chen Mu listened to what they were saying.
Couldn’t help but smile slightly, then said sowhat helplessly, "According to the current regulations of the Traditional Chinese dicine Hospital in Hai City, even if you graduate, you still need an experienced doctor to ntor you one-on-one for one to two years before you can independently diagnose patients."
"Your theoretical knowledge is actually almost learned; what you lack is clinical experience."
"Hasn’t it always been said that TCM, compared to Western dicine, requires more clinical experience?"
"So young, don’t always put too much pressure on yourselves, and don’t take all the faults upon yourselves."
"In her case, even if she goes to a hospital without an X-ray, it’s likely to be considered acute gastroenteritis, because her various clinical manifestations now are symptoms of acute gastroenteritis."
Chen Mu was comforting the group of people in white coats behind him.
But actually.
His slightly concerned gaze was always on the girl in front of him.
The girl lowered her head in thought for a long ti.
Then looked up at Chen Mu in front of her, "Dr. Chen, about four or five months ago, there was indeed a period when I went to the bathroom very frequently."
"I would have bowel movents about four or five tis a day."
Facing so many doctors, talking about such matters.
The girl’s face showed a slight blush.
She knew.
Chen Mu asked such questions out of concern for her condition.
Despite still feeling a bit embarrassed.
She answered truthfully.
Chen Mu nodded, "At the ti, did you not realize that such frequency was unusual, or did you co to the school hospital or any other hospital for a check-up?"
The girl shook her head, "At that ti, I didn’t think much of it; I was just following online fitness videos and working out every day."
"I thought it was because I was exercising hard, which improved my tabolism..."
As she said this.
The girl cautiously observed Chen Mu’s expression.
Fearing a severe look from Chen Mu.
Might send her straight to the ICU.
—
"Is frequent bowel movent also a sign of illness? My tabolism has always been great."
"It depends; if you’re always frequent, that’s normal. If it suddenly becos frequent at a certain point, it’s better to go to the hospital for a check-up."
"After exercising, tabolism does indeed improve; I think this girl’s logic makes sense, doesn’t it?"
"tabolism quality isn’t related to frequency."
"This girl keeps sneaking glances at Dr. Chen’s face; she seems truly frightened by him."
"You’re kidding. If Dr. Chen takes your pulse and says you’re sick, let’s see if you panic!"
"Don’t say that, I’m already trembling..."
"..."
—
Chen Mu sighed, "So, did you pay attention to controlling your diet while working out?"
The girl nodded.
Chen Mu, even more helpless, guessed, "Then let guess, during the period after working out, your weight decreased dramatically."
"Your body started to feel weak."
"But you attributed all of this to exercising, and you didn’t go to the hospital, right?"
The girl nodded again.
Chen Mu was more helpless: "From the ti you had frequent bowel movents until now, do you know how much weight you’ve lost?"
The girl opened an app on her phone.
"I don’t quite rember, but I have a habit of recording my weight on the fitness app, let check..."
"Since I started working out half a year ago, I’ve lost thirty pounds."
Talking about her weight-loss achievent.
The girl’s tone unconsciously lifted.
In her eyes.
There was a sense of pride.
You must know.
In today’s society, there are many overweight people.
Many want to lose weight too.
But most people just make empty resolutions, unable to control their mouths or move their legs.
And she.
Having such weight-loss results is indeed sothing to be proud of.
Only Chen Mu.
Thinking about the information her pulse gave him.
Chen Mu frowned slightly, "Your current physical condition can’t really support intense training; can you tell what kind of fitness training you’re doing?"
Girl: "I do an hour of yoga every day."
Chen Mu: "Have you been controlling your diet recently?"
The girl shook her head, "Lately, my appetite hasn’t been good, so I eat very little; I haven’t specifically controlled my diet."
Chen Mu frowned, "If your appetite isn’t good, why not see a doctor?"
The girl was surprised, "Do I need to go to the hospital for this too?"
Chen Mu: "???"
Why not?
Facing Chen Mu’s helpless and confused gaze, the girl confidently said, "I’m dieting, I thought it was the ntal work I did on myself that’s taking effect, that’s why my appetite is poor."
Chen Mu: "..."
This student.
How does she make such nonsensical words sound so reasonable?
—
"I see now, she had signs of illness half a year ago, but this girl never paid attention."
"Mainly because she was careless, thinking nothing needed hospital attention until sothing serious happened."
"Mainly, when people are dieting, if they really lose weight, they will attribute everything to their labor’s success."
"Sigh! You guys are worried about this girl, but I’m genuinely anxious, I feel many of her symptoms are similar to mine, could I also have contracted so frightening illness?"
"If the symptoms are exactly the sa, just call a cab to the hospital. From Dr. Chen’s expression, you can tell the girl’s condition isn’t simple."
"It’s definitely not simple; look at those white coats behind Dr. Chen, so are already taking notes; the white coats are professionals, they surely understand the seriousness of the problem better than us!"
"..."
—
Facing this girl’s completely confident deanor.
Chen Mu could only be sowhat helpless, speeding up his questioning, "Have you had any rectal bleeding during bowel movents in the last three months?"
The girl nodded, responding fluently, "Yes!"
Chen Mu was even more puzzled, "You ignored the previous conditions, but how could you not consider seeing a doctor after experiencing rectal bleeding?"
"Even if you didn’t want to go to the hospital, you could have co to at the school hospital to take your pulse?!"
The girl awkwardly waved her hand, "Dr. Chen, here’s the thing; before this program, I thought the school doctors were incompetent, so I never thought of coming to the school hospital."
Chen Mu nodded helplessly, "Alright, I’m incompetent, but at least the doctors in a top-tier hospital should earn your trust?"
Facing Chen Mu’s puzzled gaze.
The girl confidently said, "Dr. Chen, I have hemorrhoids."
Chen Mu: "Hmm?"
Girl: "For hemorrhoid patients, isn’t rectal bleeding a normal occurrence? Naturally, I didn’t pay it much mind."
Chen Mu: "..."
This girl.
Was she so coincidence in a past life?
She perfectly skipped every possibility of realizing she was sick.
Seeing the girl still hadn’t grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Chen Mu sighed again, deciding to give her a dose of reality, "Does your family have a history of colorectal cancer?"
The girl was a bit stunned.
Suddenly seed to realize sothing, and awkwardly nodded, "Both my grandmother and aunt passed from this disease..."
Chen Mu sighed, "Inform your family to go to the hospital for a check-up to see if anyone has colorectal cancer."
"As for you..."
Chen Mu sighed, "At worst, it’s mid-stage colorectal cancer; I’ll go check if Driver He is back. If he is, you should head directly to the hospital with him to complete admission procedures."
Saying this.
Chen Mu extended his hand, "Give your ID or health insurance card; I’ll have soone issue a School Hospital Referral Form for you. Take it with you to the hospital to claim a reimbursent."
