I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 95: Word of Mouth Part [-]: Cushing’s Syndrome ([-]) (First order requested!)

Because just four or five months ago, Christie was very thin, weighing just over 100 pounds ([-] to [-] kilograms). However, now, after just a few months of not seeing each other, Christie has become a big fat ball!

The impact of the contrast between the front and back is stronger than the shock of Felipe!

Christie was very sad and frustrated, and beckoned Taylor and Felipe to come and sit at home, so Taylor took his son there.

In fact, Taylor still likes Christie very much. There was a time when she even dreamed of Christie marrying her son and having several cute babies.

But obviously, that's impossible!
Christie weighs over 100 pounds and has a slender figure. How could she fall in love with Felipe, a loser who weighs [-] pounds and only plays games at home?
It's just that I didn't expect that now that Christie is also fat, will there be hope?

Tyler's heart came alive again.

The son is so old, he should find a wife!That way, she can also hug her grandson or granddaughter.

"Felipe, Tyler, what are you drinking? Coke or coffee? Or beer?"

After the two entered the house, Christie greeted them warmly.

Taylor said, "Just give us two glasses of purified water!"

"Ah?" Christie was surprised, and immediately said, "Okay!"

Felipe and Taylor were each given a bottle of mineral water, and Christie took a bottle of beer, opened the cap and drank it, and asked, "I want to know if the stomach cutting operation hurts? Will there be any sequelae after the operation?" To tell you the truth, I look like this, um, I also want to have an operation!"

Taylor asked: "Christie, what did you do? Why did you suddenly become so fat? Didn't you go on a trip?"

Xindao, isn't travel very tiring and easy to lose weight?

Christie looked up to the sky and sighed softly, and said, "I don't know what happened, it's like being inflated for no reason, and suddenly gained so much fat! I'm so worried!"

Taylor thought for a while and said, "If you want to have surgery, Dr. Zhou at Iris Clinic is still very good. I highly recommend him!"

Christie's eyes lit up, saying that she would go and have a look!

Taylor shared the phone number of the Iris Clinic with Christie.

Then, Christy Lavelle called the Iris Clinic, made an appointment, and came to Zhou Qiao's clinic on time at the appointment time.

When Ava received her outside, she had already registered her information and filled in the relevant information.

"Suddenly gained weight? Gained [-] or [-] pounds in four or five months?" Zhou Qiao was very surprised after hearing Christie's description, because this is not common.

Sudden weight loss, Zhou Qiao knew, was probably a sign of disease, but if he suddenly gained weight, was it simply because he ate too much, or was it... other reasons?
Zhou Qiao had a hunch that this disease was not simple.

"Ms. Lavelle, can you tell me how you became fat?" Zhou Qiao said.

"Please just call me by my name, Christie. My experience of getting fat is probably like this..." Christie started to talk aggrievedly.

Since she became fat, no one has complained about it. When she told her family members, they were impatient. One of her stinky cousins ​​even taunted her, which pissed her off to death!

Now, finally, someone is willing to listen to her talk carefully.

It should start from May and June in the first half of the year. Before that, she was a windy woman!

She loves sports and has a lively personality. She used to be a good football player on campus. She did not go to college. After graduating from high school, she stayed in San Francisco to work as a salesperson in a mobile phone store.

The salary is not high, but it is not a problem to support yourself, and you can travel around during vacations.

In the first half of the year, her classmates invited her to develop in Chicago, and she thought that even if she couldn't find a job there, it would be good to go on a trip.She especially likes traveling.

Then when I arrived in Chicago, I felt something was wrong. First, my hands would tremble subconsciously, and then my body was like blowing up a balloon. Day by day, I became fatter to the naked eye.

Originally 165 centimeters tall and just over 100 pounds, her face and body continued to round up, out of control.

That classmate in Chicago even jokingly asked her if she was following some kind of "weight gain plan"!Does your favorite boyfriend like fat girls?
But how is it possible?
Originally, she had already found a job in Chicago, but she was ridiculed by her new colleagues because of gaining weight. She always felt that Chicago was not suitable for her. to his home in San Francisco.

Zhou Qiao nodded. According to the Chinese, is this acclimatization?Or Feng Shui problem?

Anyway, it's definitely not your own problem.

"I initially thought I was eating too much and exercising too little, so I started exercising more and started lifting weights, playing basketball, and rugby. However, it had no effect at all and I couldn't stop it!"

Christie was about to cry!
She never thought that obesity would come to her, and that she would suddenly become obese in a short period of time!It’s really unacceptable and feels very hopeless!She is not married yet, is she going to live the life of a middle-aged aunt ahead of schedule?

"Besides obesity, are there any other symptoms?" Zhou Qiao asked while pondering.

Christie thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "Yes! When I was gaining weight, I always had acne on my face, and my menstruation was also very irregular, coming and going."

"Doctor Zhou, am I caused by an endocrine disorder? In addition, since I gained weight, I often feel depressed, and sometimes I feel like I have collapsed. Am I suffering from depression?" Christie was suspicious.

Zhou Qiao shook his head and said, "Stand up and let me take a look."

"Ah?" Christie was surprised, why should she look at her figure?Am I good looking?

But he stood up cooperatively, seeing Zhou Qiao staring at him, so he twisted his body again.

It's just that I was a little embarrassed in my heart, thinking, Doctor Zhou has extraordinary taste and likes fat girls like me?Look so carefully? !
Zhou Qiao actually has no distracting thoughts. He likes Elena, Ava, and tall and thin people like Murphy.

Or as fit as Loya!
The only thing I don't like is fat and bloated.

Or to put it another way, he likes beautiful people with good figures and dislikes ugly people with bad figures.

He is also very specific, he only likes young and beautiful people!
Zhou Qiao stood up, walked to her side, motioned for her to sit down, and said, "I need to check your legs."

In fact, Zhou Qiao already had an idea. He had borrowed some tomes in college and was very impressed by some of the diseases. Christie's situation was very consistent with one of the obesity diseases caused by endocrine disorders, but he still needed more evidence. .

Although he has a system, he also wants to verify his knowledge, so as not to be told that he can't say anything and only relies on the system!
What a joke, he used to be a top student anyway, college is not wasted, he didn't even find a girlfriend, he only cared about studying every day!
I have studied hard in the cold window, and I have learned a lot and memorized it. How could I not know anything?

Christie raised her feet in cooperation, and Zhou Qiao rolled up her trouser legs, stretched out his hand to press them, and saw that her legs and feet were swollen!

Look carefully at her face, it's like a full moon!
Li Bai's poem goes: "I didn't know the moon when I was young, so I called it a white jade plate." Well, Christie's face is like a big round plate! "Full moon face"!
Going around behind her, she pinched her shoulders and neck. The back of her neck protruded, and her back muscles were obviously raised in a half-moon shape, a bit like the back of a hunchback patient.

This back is called "buffalo back"!
It is a symptom, often caused by the side effects of taking hormones. In addition, hormones can also cause weight gain.

"Have you ever taken hormones before?" Zhou Qiao asked.

Christie shook her head: "Not really..." She was full of doubts. Why did she ask this question? What hormone should I take if I have nothing to do?
I saw that Zhou Qiao nodded and looked at her abdomen again!

Christie quickly tucked her belly in, but unfortunately, with her current figure, she couldn't get it in at all!

I saw that her belly was very big, as if she was eight or nine months pregnant!It's booming!
Not actually pregnant!
This is "central obesity"!Zhou Qiao nodded again!
Central obesity is a type of secondary obesity and is related to glucocorticoid levels in the body.

This kind of obesity is often characterized by trunk and abdominal obesity, so it is also called "abdominal obesity" and "visceral obesity".However, the distal ends of its limbs are relatively thin, which looks extremely uncoordinated and lacks aesthetic feeling.

Although Ariel is strong, her whole body is strong, not only her torso, but also her hands, feet, arms, thighs and calves are all strong and strong, generally speaking, she is more well-proportioned.

"Can I check your abdomen?" Zhou Qiao asked.

Christie was taken aback, and quickly said, "Okay, do you need me to lie on the examination bed?"

Zhou Qiao said: "That's not necessary. I just want to see the skin on your abdomen."

"Oh." Christie thought Zhou Qiao was going to press and hold, but she didn't know that it was called abdominal palpation, which is mainly used to check the condition of abdominal organs.

Now Zhou Qiao is only checking the surface of the skin, so there is no need.

"Sure enough, there are purple stripes. It seems that it is really that sick!"

All I could see were wide, spindle-shaped purple cracks on Christie's abdomen. They were dark and wide, different from white stretch marks or slender and light obesity marks.

Zhou Qiao said: "If my prediction is correct, you have these wide purple lines on your inner and outer thighs, buttocks and upper arms, right?"

Christie was startled, and quickly asked, "Doctor Zhou, am I suffering from some serious illness? You mean, it's not simply obesity?"

Zhou Qiao pondered, this is only his preliminary judgment, and further inspection is needed to confirm, but it is almost the same!

He had a system, so he could confirm the diagnosis now and verify his judgment, so he thought in the center of his mind and silently issued an order to the system.
