"I..." Li Chu didn't know what to say. Did he dare to hide from the situation just now? If he didn't let her unleash the evil fire, he would suffer even more.
"I'm sorry, I won't pinch you anymore." Ding Qiunan saw that her man was silent and thought he was angry.
"Hi, wife, you are so nice, so why should I apologize?" Li Chu stretched out his hand to rub his wife's hair: "That's an exaggeration. I know you were joking with me."
"Hmph~ Li Chu, why don't they call them mom? I was the one who stayed up all day and midnight to feed them milk!"
"Don't be anxious, daughter-in-law. She will surely start barking slowly. It's time for them to learn." Li Chu sat on the sofa and held her in his arms.
Ding Qiunan leaned her head on his shoulder and pouted, "I will teach them to call mommy from tomorrow on."
"Okay, I will also teach them to call mom. Wife, go wash up and get some rest early."
Ding Qiunan sat up straight and glanced sideways at Li Chu: "Why do you have no clue now? You don't know what to do. Do you still want me to remind you?"
Li Chu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized what his wife meant by his words. He stood up and picked her up: "How could you not know? This is coming. If you don't let you beg for mercy, I won't stop tonight."
As he spoke, he walked towards the bathroom.
Ding Qiunan put her arms around his neck and looked at her man with charming eyes.
The next morning at the hospital.
Li Chu was reading a book in the consulting room. The renal failure patient from last time came for a follow-up consultation.
Looking at the patient's face, Li Chu's heart continued to sink.
After checking the patient's pulse, he finally confirmed that the feeling that the condition was under control before was just an illusion. The patient's condition had indeed worsened. According to Western medicine, his condition has now entered a new stage.
.
If he didn't make a mistake in judgment, it should be early stage of uremia.
But whether it is the late stage of renal failure or the early stage of uremia, the effect is actually the same.
All of them have caused irreversible damage to the kidneys, so that the damaged kidneys are not enough to eliminate metabolic waste.
Li Chu didn't know what he should say to this patient. He hesitated for a while before saying: "Comrade, the condition is temporarily under control. You still have to cooperate with the treatment. I will give you a check-up list. You
Go to the outpatient hall to do some tests."
He decided to hide it for now. If he told the truth to the patient, he would probably not be able to accept it.
I took out the laboratory test sheet and directly ordered him a routine blood test and a urine test. After thinking about it, I ordered an abdominal B-ultrasound test. By now, it should be possible to observe through the B-ultrasound that the patient's kidneys have atrophied.
Looking at the list he had made, Li Chu felt a little funny. When would Chinese medicine practitioners also need to rely on these instruments for examinations?
But there is no way. Judging from the development trend of this disease, there is no evidence-based medical evidence to support TCM treatment.
If compared with Western medicine, what Chinese medicine calls exhaustion can be considered to be the early stage of kidney failure. If treated early, the development of the disease can be controlled and the symptoms can be alleviated.
According to his estimation, it’s not that no one got urine poisoning in the past, but it’s that people may have died before they could reach that stage.
"Sister Wang, take this patient for a test." Li Chu handed the prescribed test order to Nurse Wang and asked her to take the patient.
Then he said to the patient's family: "This lesbian, please wait a moment. I will tell you some precautions for him to take medicine in the future."
After Nurse Wang left with the patient, Li Chu asked the patient's family to sit down, and then thought for a while before speaking.
"Comrade, are you and the patient a couple?"
The patient's family looked at Li Chu without speaking, and just nodded.
"What's your surname, comrade?"
"My surname is Zhang, Li Zaozhang, and my husband's surname is also Zhang. He is Gong Zhang Zhang." The family member of the patient said softly, his voice a little low.
"Comrade Zhang, I won't mince words about your lover's condition. His condition should be said to be very bad. I hope you will be mentally prepared in advance."
These words made the patient's family members' faces change drastically, their eye circles quickly turned red, and their hands tightly grasped the bag straps on their backs.
"No...didn't you say...that you were under control?"
Li Chu did not speak, but picked up a pen and paper and drew a kidney on it, and also blackened part of it.
Then he pointed to the picture he had drawn and said to the patient's family: "This is like your lover's kidney. The blackened part is the damaged part."
"There's no way to restore this part that's broken."
Looking up at the patient's family who were listening carefully, he continued: "The main function of the kidneys is metabolism, excreting excess waste water in the body, and regulating the balance of certain substances in the body."
At this point, he stopped and looked at her. Seeing that she seemed to understand, he continued: "Now most of your lover's kidneys can no longer work properly."
Li Chu pointed to the black part he drew: "With only such a small piece left to operate normally, there is no way to properly excrete the harmful substances that need to be excreted every day. With so many harmful substances accumulated in the body, it is bound to
It can cause damage to other organs and cause other complications."
At this point, he stopped and did not say any more. He felt that what he had said was very clear.
The patient's family raised their fingers and pointed to the black part of the kidney he drew, and asked: "Doctor, are you saying that this part is bad and cannot be cured?"
Li Chu nodded: "Yes, this is irreversible. If it's broken, it's broken. Now whether you give him medicine or an enema, we can help relieve his condition and prolong his survival time as much as possible."
After hearing his words, the family members fell silent and couldn't stop crying: "Is there no other way? He is only forty years old!"
"I'm sorry, I haven't found any effective method so far."
Seeing that she was still crying, Li Chu persuaded: "Comrade Zhang, I hope you can control your emotions. The reason why I didn't say it in front of your lover is that I don't want him to have mental pressure and actively cooperate with our hospital."
The treatment, if he knew about it..."
The patient's family nodded, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his tears: "Doctor, thank you."
Li Chu shook his head and said: "You're welcome, I will try my best, and I also want to remind you that your lover should try to eat as little salt as possible in the future."
"okay, I get it."
Li Chu didn't mention other taboos at all, so he probably wouldn't be able to eat them even if he wanted to.
"Doctor, if nothing happens again, I will go to the outpatient clinic to accompany him for examination."
"Go ahead and control your emotions."
Looking at the heavy backs of the patient's family members, Li Chu sighed deeply. This feeling of powerlessness was really annoying.
