Some patients, possibly due to financial reasons at home, try to save on everything when they come for treatment. The doctors, empathizing with the patients, also help them to save. In the end, a serious problem emerges.
“Her heart isn’t too good either. Fast heart rate, low blood pressure, it’s abnormal,” Xie Wanying said.
The others heard her and looked at the numbers on the monitor.
“Go and notify the attending physician,” Director Li said.
Doctor Zhang’s forehead began to sweat as he went out to make a phone call for a clinical doctor to come over.
This time he had made the mistake of not checking the patient first, thinking he’d look over her when Lau Jingyun was administering the anesthetic, as it wouldn’t be too late by then anyway. He hadn’t anticipated Lau Jingyun turning the tables on him.
Like the young girl had said, he had underestimated Lau Jingyun, thinking an intern knew nothing. He never expected that Lau Jingyun could notice something before he did.
“I’m not bending over anymore, I want to lie down. That doctor told me, said it could be like last time, I was prone last time,” the old lady complained unhappily.
A group of doctors and nurses listened to the old lady’s complaints, unsure of what expression to put on their faces. After all, if at that moment they suddenly told the patient that her condition might be not as simple as just an anal fistula, what would her reaction be?
It was also evident that the original misdiagnosis might have been due to the patient’s attitude, leading the doctor to mistakenly believe that she couldn’t handle even a bit of back pain, and with the outpatient clinic being extremely busy, the doctor had no time for a thorough investigation.
Last time the anal fistula was treated in the outpatient clinic with a local anesthetic, without the need for a monitor. This time was different, having entered the operating room and being put on a monitor, they discovered the issue while preparing for a spinal anesthetic; it was a timely catch-up.
“I’ve notified them, they said they’re on their way,” Doctor Zhang came back and said to Director Li.
Director Li glanced at Cao Yong.
Cao Yong smiled at Director Li, “Nothing’s the matter, I just came to take my people back.”
“Let’s go,” Huang Zhilei called out to his junior sister.
As her senior brother called her away, Xie Wanying looked at her senior sister.
Lau Jingyun nodded at her, a sign that everything was okay now.
Xie Wanying then stepped forward to follow her two senior brothers.
After they had left, Director Li glared at Doctor Zhang: You knew he was here, and yet you argued with his people?
Doctor Zhang’s complexion turned pale green.
Idiot! Director Li threw these two words at Doctor Zhang with his eyes and turned away.
Doctor Zhang covered his face with his hands, thinking that he indeed had a moment of stupidity. No matter what, Cao Yong’s expertise was recognized throughout the hospital. The fact that Cao Yong hadn’t spoken meant he’d already conceded defeat.
The reason he lost was simple. Rare cases don’t mean nonexistent, and besides, the early symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis are concealed and easily confused with other diseases. To say there’s nothing wrong after examining is one thing, but to assert there’s nothing wrong without examining is utterly irresponsible.
Outside, Director Li called her, and Lau Jingyun hurried out: “Director Li.”
“Come here,” Director Li said to her, “Come to my office to tell me the details.”
Lau Jingyun felt as if she could suddenly climb out from the bottom of a valley.
Xie Wanying, having left the operating room, hoped in her heart that everything would go smoothly for her senior sister afterward.
Suddenly, beep beep, her phone rang. Seeing it was from the counselor, a chill ran down Xie Wanying’s spine. Her classmates said that Zhao Zhaowei had written a self-criticism. The counselor hadn’t yet spoken to her, probably waiting for her to recover from her injuries. Now, it seemed she couldn’t escape writing a self-criticism either.
Picking up the phone, she held it to her ear, and sure enough the counselor said, “Xie Wanying, take a leave with your senior brother this afternoon and come to see me to explain about the incident where you got injured after leaving in an ambulance last time.”
