Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2205 Lu Yisi is just lucky

Through diagrammatic analysis and reverse deduction, Bian Mu basically figured out what was wrong with that difficult patient.

"Since we're brothers, I'll be frank. Recently, I've encountered a few rather unusual patients. I won't name names, but we in Traditional Chinese Medicine value 'qi' highly. You expert surgeons might look down on that, really! We're family, no need to hide anything. However, this patient of yours most likely has a problem with 'qi,' more accurately, it's mostly due to 'alcohol fumes,' and it's mixed with other things—a combination. The newly formed small qi system around the pancreas is malfunctioning. You're probably not far off, North..." "That senior from Beiqi is well-versed in traditional Chinese medicine. Let me add something here: we in traditional Chinese medicine don't have a specific concept of the pancreas. The scope of medicine we refer to is relatively broader than what you understand or grasp. Precisely because of this breadth, that senior from Beiqi specifically tied a slipknot to prevent excessive accumulation of intestinal gas, which could lead to severe enteritis, intestinal adhesions, and other stubborn diseases. You have little experience in this area, and you carelessly stirred up a hornet's nest. It won't be easy to clean up the mess in the short term. That's all I can understand for now." Bian Mu told him truthfully.

Hearing this, Lu Yisi fell silent.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yisi said, "Then... do you still want to go over and take my pulse first?"

"That's for sure! If possible, I'd like to meet his partner."

"He's been divorced several times. Which one do you want to meet?" Lu Yisi asked curiously upon hearing this.

"Oh... really... last one, right? Is that convenient?"

"There's nothing inconvenient about it. The woman is a production assistant, working at the film studio. She's almost 20 years younger than her husband. I heard she was a pretty decent professional actress when she was younger, but then she suddenly changed careers for some reason. Lately, she's been taking care of him in the ward day and night. She seems quite virtuous."

"Really? You've almost finished eating? Come on! Let's go check on the patient's room!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yisi seemed to have suddenly found his anchor, and he straightened up and became alert again.

……

The special needs ward is on the third floor, a sunny room, with one room inside and one outside. There is also a small living room in the area away from the corridor. In a top-tier tertiary hospital department ward where every inch of land is precious, this kind of private ward is not something that anyone can get just because they need it.

Lu Yisi is concerned about his image, so he had prepared a complete set of white coats and other items in advance to take care of his feelings. Bian Mu deliberately dressed very conservatively, so that unless they met someone he knew very well, the medical staff and patients' families would naturally assume that he was a doctor from the hospital.

thin!
The male patient lying in the hospital bed looks incredibly thin! If he continues like this, he'll be nothing but skin and bones.

It's alright; the "heart-seeking" energy in that male patient's eyes was slightly better than Bian Mu had imagined on the way.

The patient's spouse stood quietly not far away, looking haggard, without saying a word. His clothes were clearly specially changed; they were simple and plain, quite matching the atmosphere of the special needs ward.

In her early thirties, she is tall and has maintained a very good figure. She has bright eyes and thick black hair. If it weren't for the slightly dull hair color, her star quality would be even more evident.

Calm down!

The woman exuded a unique, innate tranquility that made Bian Mu look at her with new respect.

Bian Mu guessed that the still charming lady in front of him probably came from a prominent family, and that the patient who was suffering so much pain on the hospital bed was probably not someone to be trifled with.

Without further ado, let's get straight to taking your pulse...

...Finally, Bian Mu focused on the male patient's feet and calves, examining them repeatedly for a long time, causing Lu Yisi, the floor head nurse, the patient's spouse, the temporarily hired female caregiver, and the two responsible female nurses to all have some doubts.

What is that male doctor busy with?! What can you possibly learn from that?!

"Are there any gaps in the current infusion intervals?" Bian Muchong asked the middle-aged head nurse.

"It's been 24 hours a day, and for the past three days, there's only a half-hour interval in between, totaling 2 hours. We don't dare stop the medication at other times," the head nurse quickly replied.

"Oh... okay, may I take a look at the duty log? I mean all of them!" Bian Mu said, glancing at Lu Yisi.

Lu Yisi quickly gestured to the head nurse, indicating that she should follow Bian Mu's instructions completely.

The head nurse nodded quickly, and before Bian Mu could speak, she had already assigned a tall female nurse to go out and organize all the recent treatment and nursing records.

……

In the doctor's on-call room, besides Bian Mu and Lu Yisi, the male patient's lover was also present.

“Your husband is fine, so you don’t need to worry too much. Go home and rest if you need to. That female caregiver looks quite professional. If you’re really worried, why don’t you hire another one and have them take turns on duty?” Without even discussing it with Lu Yisi, Bian Mu directly gave the woman a few instructions.

"Wasn't he critically ill? Does that mean there's a chance for a turnaround?!" the woman asked calmly.

"Well... he just looks quite ill, but his life isn't in danger. Treatment... it just requires coordination from all sides. What's unusual is... we might have to ask colleagues from other provinces and cities for help. That might be a bit more complicated. You know Dr. Lu's medical skills are top-notch in the country, right? It's fortunate that you anticipated this and switched to him in time. If it had been another doctor, things might have turned out differently... I only dared to draw this conclusion after carefully studying the relevant records. If you trust me, you might as well go home and get some rest." Without saying a word, Bian Mushun also praised Lu Yisi a few times.

Lu Yisi, who was sitting next to him, was also getting restless as he listened.

What's wrong with this kid?! Has his brain short-circuited? He's always saying the opposite of what he means!
Bian Mu's thoughts were completely different from those two at this moment.

"Lu Yisi is really lucky! If it were a more experienced doctor, the person lying in the hospital bed might have already..." Bian Mu thought to himself.

Lu Yisi's medical background was indeed quite strong. At this moment, he realized that Bian Mu must be quite confident, otherwise he would not have deliberately arranged for the patient's family to go home and rest.

Anyway, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then...you should go home and rest first. If you really work yourself to the bone, who will we talk to about things in the future?! Right? Ultimately, you're the one who has to make the decisions about your family, aren't you?" Lu Yisi followed Bian Mu's lead and offered the woman a few words of comfort.

The woman nodded slightly, indicating her approval of the two renowned doctors' arrangements.

She'd seen a bit of the world; what kind of reputation did Dr. Lu have?! The new young male doctor's aura was clearly a notch above hers. He'd certainly been exhausted these past few days and deserved to go home and rest.
