Doctor of Healing

Chapter 231 Diagnosis
"Teacher!" Ji Xiang's voice was 20 decibels higher than usual.

"Speak slowly, don't rush." ​​The system NPC was still calm.

"Why do I always feel that there is a little girl in red sitting on my shoulder when I empathize with you this time?" Ji Xiang asked impatiently.

When empathizing, Professor Zhou's explanation was not very detailed, so he was eager to know the reason.

"Recite the description about temporal arteritis." The system NPC put his hands behind his back and looked up slightly into Jixiang's eyes.

"Giant cell arteritis, also known as cranial arteritis, temporal arteritis, granulomatous arteritis, and the realization that any larger artery in the body can be affected..."

Ji Xiang obediently recited the full text.

Reciting the full text is a terrible thing for others, but it is relatively simple for Ji Xiang.

When Ji Xiang finished reciting, the system NPC nodded.

"Depression, memory loss, insomnia tendency, you have recited it." The system NPC said, "The abnormalities you felt in the end are all part of depression."

"..." Ji Xiang was at a loss.

"Negative, auditory hallucinations, delusions of being persecuted, etc." said the system NPC, "There can be countless forms of expression. For you, it is a little girl sitting on your shoulder and blowing air."

With that said, the system NPC shook his head.

"Teacher, isn't this a mental symptom? Why don't you send it..." Ji Xiang paused at this point.

The little girl in red created such a heavy psychological shadow on herself that she was in a trance.

Of course such patients cannot be sent to a mental hospital!

Depression is just a manifestation of temporal arteritis. It is strange that depression can be cured if you treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

As temporal arteritis progresses, large arteries may be involved.Even if it does not develop, continuous use of sedative drugs will cause irreversible damage to the human body.

"Got it?" The system NPC didn't explain, he saw Ji Xiang's expression and he already guessed what Ji Xiang was thinking.

"Understood, teacher." Ji Xiang said.

"So the emergency doctor you said is unwilling to send the patient to a mental hospital, which is a responsible behavior, yes." The system NPC said, "The patient you mentioned may also have this type of rheumatic immune disease."

Ji Xiang pondered, and asked after a few seconds, "Teacher, this disease is difficult to diagnose."

"Well, otherwise, how could the rheumatology and immunology doctors say that other doctors can't see a doctor." The system NPC laughed, "Many diseases that are not considered rare are misdiagnosed, and it's the difference between treating the symptoms and treating the root cause."

What he said was a bit complicated and sounded illogical, but Ji Xiang understood it in seconds.

"I know teacher." Ji Xiang replied, "What should the patient do?"

"Go to the higher-level hospital." The system NPC said, "A few hospitals with better rheumatology and immunology... Don't talk about this, you put forward your ideas. If the emergency doctor keeps thinking about this matter, he will definitely be touched. "

"it is good."

Ji Xiang nodded immediately.

Leaving the operating room of the system, Ji Xiang saw Dr. Meng Qingfei from the emergency department sitting on a chair with a little depression, frowning and thinking.

The CPU of Meng Qingfei's brain was running so fast that the top of his head even started to smoke.

Ji Xiang thought about it and said, "Mr. Meng, I met a patient during my internship."

"Oh?" Dr. Meng from the emergency department looked at Ji Xiang absent-mindedly.

A clinical rookie gossips to a veteran, and there really is him.Meng Qingfei snorted, mostly out of habitual courtesy.

Jixiang talked plainly about what happened to him when he felt the same way, starting from being sick, then feeling a little heavy on his shoulders, this heavy feeling got worse every day, and then feeling a little girl in a red dress sitting on his shoulders Blowing air, blindfolded.

At the beginning, Meng Qingfei didn't listen carefully, but Ji Xiang's speech was so vivid that within a minute Meng Qingfei listened with gusto, and even the passing nurses came in to listen to Ji Xiang's "storytelling".

But the more she talked, the more frightening she became. When Jixiang talked about the little girl in red sitting on her shoulders and blowing air, the nurse's face was pale and pale from fright, and she covered her mouth with her hands, showing a look of horror.

The hospital is just like this, with a relatively heavy cloudy atmosphere, and there will be some weird things.

Especially in an old hospital like the Second Affiliated Hospital that has been passed down for decades, no one who works here has heard a few ghost stories.

In addition, although Jixiang is only a line drawing, without the bonus of horror music, but it belongs to personal experience, and only two or three achievements are enough to scare the doctors and nurses in the emergency department.

"Dr. Xiaoji, you..." Dr. Meng from the emergency department stopped Ji Xiang's "gossip", rubbed his cold hands, and smiled wryly, "Did you make it up?"

"It's the patient I asked." Ji Xiang said seriously.

"What is the final diagnosis? It must not be that the little girl in red is actually sitting on the shoulder."

"Temporal arteritis." Ji Xiang said, "A biopsy is needed, and the treatment is not difficult. The patient recovered after a few months. Tell me about it, and I will remember it."

Meng Qingfei's face changed, he frowned in thought, then nodded.

"Thanks." After he finished speaking, he ran to the duty room to make a phone call.

"You are Ji Xiang who set the record in the big contest, right?" the nurse asked.

"it's me."

"I didn't expect you to tell stories so well, but I was terrified." The nurse moved her limbs, and they were still a little stiff. "You said that the patient saw the little girl. Isn't this an inducement?"

Ji Xiang had a similar problem. He patiently explained to the nurse and repeated what the system NPC had said.

The nurse was dumbfounded.

First it was a mysterious and mysterious horror story, and then Ji Xiang actually explained every point!

It's like Ji Xiang faced a book of "Andersen's Fairy Tales" and used advanced mathematics to deduce it all.The most important thing is that he can justify himself. At least from the perspective of a clinical nurse, Jixiang's explanation is basically seamless.

"Doctor Xiaoji, you are really amazing. You can fool so many little girls with your mouth." The nurse said with emotion after hearing this, "If I were ten years younger, I wouldn't be tempted."

"..."

Ji Xiang was stunned for a moment, what he was talking about was his own experience, how could it be misunderstood by others.

"Tsk tsk, in the middle of the night, you are really good at telling ghost stories to your female classmates, dark." The nurse smiled, "I'm off to work, I have time to listen to your stories."

What she said, it took Ji Xiang a long time to understand what she meant.

I didn't tell a story, everything was a real experience.

Thinking of all that he experienced when he empathized, Ji Xiang still has a chill down his back.

At that time, he hoped that the NPC of the system would call him back and know that Professor Zhou appeared.

I hope that Dr. Meng Qingfei can become like Professor Zhou in reality, Ji Xiang thought to himself.
