Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

Chapter 693: Complex Symptoms

"Dean Yan."

Wu Wanshou accompanied Meng Xulin out of the office and ran into Yan Zhengjun head-on.

"Dean Yan."

Wu Wanshou greeted Yan Zhengjun politely.

"Director Wu."

Yan Zhengjun smiled and nodded to Wu Wanshou, and also saw Meng Xulin beside him: "Master Meng, how is your wife doing recently?"

Meng Xulin's lover has been hospitalized here for some time, so some people in the hospital know Meng Xulin's identity, and Yan Zhengjun also knows it.

When Meng Xulin was still working at Jinrong Hotel, Yan Zhengjun also wanted to have the opportunity to taste Meng Xulin's cooking skills, but unfortunately the threshold of Jinrong Hotel was too high.

"It's still the same." Meng Xulin said.

"Master Meng is here today to handle discharge procedures."

Wu Wanshou said: "Our hospital has been treating the patient for a long time. We should go to Kyoto or Shen City to see if there is any solution."

"Have you booked a hospital yet?"

Yan Zhengjun asked Meng Xulin.

"Not yet." Meng Xulin smiled.

"How about this, Master Meng, I'll recommend a doctor to you, you can go and try him first."

Yan Zhengjun said, "Dr. Chen Yang from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of the Medical University Hospital is young but has great medical skills. He is a disciple of Professor Wu Yaolin."

Meng Xulin looked at Yan Zhengjun in astonishment. He didn't expect that Yan Zhengjun also recommended Chen Yang to him.

"To be honest with President Yan, I plan to transfer to the Affiliated Hospital of Medical University. I have already told Dr. Chen about it." Meng Xulin said.

"I see."

Yan Zhengjun smiled and said, "That's fine. With Dr. Chen's help, I think there will be a turnaround."

Yan Zhengjun said to Wu Wanshou, "Handle the discharge procedures for Master Meng, and have the hospital car take him there when the time comes."

Wu Wanshou: “…”

......

"Master, a patient is here."

Chen Yang was taking Liu Xi and Wu Mengmeng to the outpatient clinic when Wu Mengmeng suddenly received a call and said to Chen Yang, "The patient's family said they had an appointment with you."

"Well, go and take a look."

There was still a patient in front of Chen Yang, so he said to Wu Mengmeng, "Ask the patient's family if his name is Meng Xulin. If so, give him a number and transfer him directly to the inpatient department."

Chen Yang checked the time and said, "Ask the inpatient department to arrange for the patient to be admitted first, and I'll go over when I'm done."

It was already past ten in the morning. Meng Xulin's wife's condition was not an emergency, so Chen Yang had to deal with the outpatient patients first.

The person who came was indeed Meng Xulin. Meng Xulin's lover was sent here by the ambulance from the City Central Hospital. After Wu Mengmeng arrived, she arranged for Meng Xulin's lover to be hospitalized while taking Meng Xulin to go through the hospitalization procedures.

When Chen Yang finished his work, it was already past eleven in the morning. When he and Liu Xi arrived at the inpatient department, Meng Xulin's wife had already completed the hospitalization procedures and was already staying in the ward.

Chen Yang and Liu Xi walked into the ward where Qin Dongliang was sitting beside the bed examining Meng Xulin's lover. Meng Xulin stood aside.

"Dr. Chen."

Seeing Chen Yang coming in, Meng Xulin hurriedly greeted him.

Chen Yang nodded slightly to Meng Xulin, then walked to Qin Dongliang, who was taking the pulse of Meng Xulin's lover.

While Qin Dongliang was taking the pulse, Chen Yang was also observing the condition of Meng Xulin's lover.

Last night, Meng Xulin also gave a brief account of his lover's situation.

Meng Xulin's lover has been ill for more than half a year. Basically, a few months after Meng Xulin's mother passed away, Meng Xulin's lover fell ill. The main symptoms are edema of the face, neck, right breast and right upper limb.

Moreover, since the end of last year, Meng Xulin's wife has been coughing up blood and having paroxysmal coughs on many occasions, and was diagnosed with bronchitis.

Bronchitis was just one of the confirmed diseases, there were other unknown conditions, and he was sent to the intensive care unit because of multiple episodes of hemoptysis.

During this period of time, in addition to treatment in the intensive care unit of the City Central Hospital, various special medicines and imported medicines were also used in ordinary hospitals, but the results were not ideal.

Ever since Meng Xulin's lover fell ill, the medical expenses alone have cost millions.

Meng Xulin's income is indeed not low, but high income definitely comes with high expenses. Over the years, in addition to real estate and cars, the money Meng Xulin has saved since his old father fell ill has basically been spent by now.

This is also because Meng Xulin's family is wealthy, so Meng Xulin's lover can rely on money to survive. If it were an ordinary family, they might have collapsed long ago and the family would have been broken up.

Meng Xulin's wife was leaning on the hospital bed. She looked very poorly, with a pale complexion, fatigued and listless, and her face was obviously swollen.

"The pulse is deep, thin and stringy."

Qin Dongliang let go of Meng Xulin's lover's wrist, stood up and said to Chen Yang: "I just looked at the tongue coating, the coating is thin and yellow."

It can be seen that Qin Dongliang is very troubled by this disease.

"Where are the medical records from the previous hospital?" Chen Yang asked Meng Xulin.

"Here." Meng Xulin hurriedly handed a bag to Chen Yang. In the bag were thick checklists and test reports...

When Chen Yang stretched out his hand to take it, he felt it sinking. He estimated that it weighed about seven or eight kilograms.

"I just took a look at the key point. It's at the top."

Chen Yang took it out and looked through it. Qin Dongliang waited for Chen Yang to look through it before saying, "The patient's symptoms are quite complicated. Even from a Western medical point of view, there are many symptoms involved. The reason why it was diagnosed as bronchitis was based on the patient's cough. The causes of other symptoms are still unclear."

Hospital treatment must have a treatment standard. In other words, you must know what disease it is before you treat it. At present, the only disease that has been confirmed is bronchitis. As for other diseases, they have not been fully diagnosed yet. We are only treating and observing at the same time.

Chen Yang bent down and gently lifted the patient's clothes. He could clearly see the obvious distension of the patient's jugular vein, thoracic vein, and superficial abdominal veins.

After the examination, Chen Yang nodded to Meng Xulin, then walked out of the ward with Qin Dongliang, Wu Mengmeng and Liu Xi.

"I just learned about the situation. The patient was brought here by car from the City Center Hospital and has been receiving treatment at the City Center Hospital for three months."

Qin Dongliang said: "During the period, Chinese medicine was also involved in the treatment, but the effect was not obvious, especially when the patient had severe hemoptysis. Once a large amount of hemoptysis occurs, it will be life-threatening. It was sent to the intensive care unit for rescue many times for this reason."

"Liu Xi, what do you think?" Chen Yang asked Liu Xi.

"It's definitely not simple bronchitis. Bronchitis is usually not accompanied by edema above the chest and venous dilation, so the cough should be caused by obstruction of the lung meridians." Liu Xi said after a moment of hesitation.

"So no matter how complicated the patient's condition is, we still have to find an entry point first." Chen Yang said after a moment of hesitation.

"Tell me about it in detail," Qin Dongliang said.
