Gu Nan spent half a day with Director Li in the outpatient clinic. Director Li was a very careful and responsible doctor. Gu Nan followed him and truly felt the rigorous and serious attitude of the old Chinese doctor when facing patients.
This has really benefited her a lot.
An aunt came to the outpatient clinic with burns on the back of her hands. After the aunt saw the doctor, Director Li prescribed ointment for her. When the aunt heard that it cost more than twenty yuan, she looked embarrassed and said, "Forget it, I'll just go back and put some toothpaste on it."
Gu Nan looked very sad. She took out a small white bottle of medicinal powder from her pocket and said, "Auntie, you can take these medicines and use them. There is no need to get them."
This was what was left after she applied it to Xiaoqiang's arm in the morning.
After these medicinal powders are used up, the back of my hand will definitely be healed.
The aunt looked at Gu Nan's small white bottle, "This..."
"Take it, this medicine is very useful."
"How much?" the aunt asked timidly.
"No more money, just take it and use it. Come on, I'll spread it on the back of my hand for you."
Gu Nan carefully sprinkled the medicine powder on the aunt and gave the rest directly to her, "Put it on a gauze cloth and don't touch it with water. You'll be fine in a few days."
"thanks, thanks."
After the aunt went out, Director Li glanced at Gu Nan and said quietly, "It turns out you are not a money fan."
Director Li did not expect that Gu Nan would give away the precious medicinal powder as soon as he said so, and there was a trace of appreciation in his eyes.
"Director Li, if I were obsessed with money, I wouldn't be a Chinese medicine practitioner."
For two yuan to write a prescription, you can only earn enough for food and clothing.
In the afternoon, as soon as Gu Nan got home, she received a call from Sun Cheng.
He said he had arrived in Lancheng and was staying in a hotel with the rheumatoid girl.
Ask Gu Nan when he is free.
Gu Nan made an appointment with the patient introduced by Director Ye to meet at Director Ye's house at two o'clock in the afternoon.
Sun Cheng also wanted Gu Nan to treat the patients he brought as soon as possible.
Gu Nan looked at his watch and said apologetically, "Mr. Sun, I can't go there now."
Sun Cheng's tone was still gentle and polite, "Doctor Gu, I don't need you to work hard. Just tell me your address and we will go visit you."
Listening to his tone, Gu Nan seemed to be particularly anxious and eager to treat the patient.
Gu Nan hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "Okay, then you can come home."
If Sun Cheng comes early, he will first see the patients he brought and then go to Director Ye's house.
They both went to work recently, and the house was extremely messy. Gu Nan quickly mopped the floor, wiped the table, and tidied up.
As soon as I finished cleaning the house, there was a knock on the door.
The moment Gu Nan opened it, his face was slightly shocked.
Sun Cheng, who was still wearing a suit and leather shoes, was struggling to support a girl with a fat face, no, a swollen face similar to her when she was first reborn, standing at the door.
Because of the puffiness, the girl's face really looked like a big basin as Lu Hao described her before.
But her facial features are actually very beautiful, especially her eyes, which are very bright.
Unlike many patients she had seen before, who were tortured by the disease and whose eyes were dull.
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. From this, we can see that this girl is a thoughtful person who loves life.
In late autumn, normal people wear sweaters and jackets, but girls are already covered in cotton-padded clothes.
On the feet are cotton shoes.
Sun Cheng supported her, and it could be seen that it was very difficult for the girl to stand.
"Mr. Sun, please come in quickly."
Gu Nan quickly opened the door and welcomed them into the house.
Sun Cheng helped the girl sit on the sofa and said to Gu Nan, "Doctor Gu, I brought you something. I just wanted to carry her upstairs. I put the things downstairs and I'll get them."
"good."
Gu Nan quickly poured a cup of hot water for the girl who Sun Cheng helped to sit on the sofa.
When the girl met Gu Nan for the first time, she seemed a little embarrassed and seemed to feel inferior in front of strangers.
Gu Nan was the first to introduce herself, "Hello, I am Gu Nan."
"Hello, my name is Weng Ying." The girl's voice was very elegant, which didn't match her current appearance.
"Drink some hot water quickly, it's cold outside."
Weng Ying held up Gu Nan's cup of water with both hands.
Gu Nan noticed that her finger joints were swollen and her left ring finger was slightly deformed.
It’s the same as what Sun Cheng described before.
Soon, Sun Cheng brought something up.
He was carrying several beautiful gift boxes, including skin care products from foreign brands.
He put it on the coffee table and said with a smile, "We brought this from Hong Kong City."
"Thank you. It's too expensive to bring me something for such a long journey." Gu Nan thanked her, collected the gift box, and poured some water for Sun Cheng.
Sun Cheng didn't even bother to drink water and went straight to the point.
"Doctor Gu, please help me see if Xiaoying's condition can be cured?"
Gu Nan looked at the girl who was holding a water glass and even the movement of drinking water looked a little stiff, "Don't worry, let her drink some water and I will check her pulse."
After Weng Ying rested for a while, Gu Nan took her pulse, checked her tongue coating, and checked several joints with major pain.
Gu Nan said to her, "Weng Ying, stand up and take a few steps for me to take a look."
"good."
Weng Ying couldn't use her strength due to knee pain, and her arms also hurt. She couldn't support herself, especially when she was sitting on a soft sofa. She needed someone to help her when she stood up.
Sun Cheng, who was on the side, helped her get up naturally.
It can be seen that this is not the first time he has done this action.
It's very instinctive, as if he is Weng Ying's crutch.
Weng Ying walked around the ground twice.
Because of my lameness, I have a bit of a duck's gait.
For this reason, she seemed very embarrassed and had low self-esteem.
"That's enough." Gu Nan said, "Come on, sit down."
Gu Nan looked at her feet and asked, "Does the heel hurt too?"
Weng Ying nodded, "Yes, when the disease first started, it was pain in the heel and swollen fingers. Later, the knee also hurt."
"Do you still have morning stiffness in the morning? How long will it last?"
Weng Ying replied, "After taking the hormone, morning stiffness will disappear. Once the effect of the medicine wears off, regardless of the time, you will immediately become very stiff, accompanied by low-grade fever, joint swelling and pain."
"That means they are still in the development stage." After completing the consultation, Gu Nan asked them again, "What medicines are you taking now? Have you brought them all?"
"it's here."
Sun Cheng opened the girl's backpack that he carried with him and took out a bunch of medicines from it.
Gu Nan checked them one by one.
She frowned and picked up a bottle of Tripterygium wilfordii and a bottle of Dexamethasone.
She asked Weng Ying with a serious expression, "What dosage are these two? How long have you been taking them?"
Weng Ying replied, "I have been taking tripterygium wilfordii two tablets with each meal for about two years, three times a day. Before, I also took two tablets of dexamethasone at a time. Three months ago, my condition worsened and the pain was unbearable, so I increased the dosage to three tablets at a time."
, three times a day.”
"Then..." Gu Nan wanted something and glanced at Sun Cheng.
She hesitated for a moment, thinking of Sun Cheng's meticulous care of Weng Ying. Although she didn't know what their relationship was, she could tell that he should have been involved in Weng Ying's treatment.
Thinking of this, I no longer avoided him.
"Then your period is still normal?" Gu Nan asked.
After hearing Gu Nan's words, the girl lowered her head uncomfortably and shook her head with dark eyes, "It's been almost a year since I came here."
Gu Nan sighed tiredly, "Girl, this medicine is not suitable for you to take."
Tripterygium wilfordii causes amenorrhea.
Although it has a certain effect in treating rheumatoid arthritis, the side effects are too great and is not suitable for women of childbearing age, nor for men.
Once amenorrhea lasts too long, there is a risk of permanent amenorrhea, which will deprive a girl of her right to be a mother.
Weng Ying glanced at the man next to her and asked nervously, "Can my situation still be cured?"
