Chapter 291: Trick your brain

Operating room.

Chen Yu did not stop, trimming the meniscus and polishing the pitted cartilage to prepare for the next step of open surgery.

After half an hour, the operation was over.

"Let's take a look." Chen Yu showed Liu Yudong the cartilage in the tray.

Looking at the handful of broken bones in the tray, Liu Yudong fell silent.

For so many days and nights, it was these gadgets that brought him endless pain.

"Dr. Chen, can you give me these things?" Liu Yudong suddenly asked.

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment. What, do you still want to string them together as a souvenir?

I can only say that he is a ruthless person.

"There is no appointment for him today." Chen Yu said strangely.

He performed a minimally invasive surgery. It took so long after the operation, but there was actually no big problem with the wound.

Rick Ankiel is here.

Since receiving his diagnosis, Chen Yu has been treating him with medication and assisting with psychotherapy.

And Ankiel didn't have this problem before he got sick. After getting Yip syndrome, he started biting his nails because of the stress.

After several treatments before, his nail biting symptoms had been relieved, but he didn't expect it to happen again now.

Jamie said: "I don't have an appointment for him, but I feel like there's something wrong with his condition. You'd better go and have a look."

Things may have really gotten worse.

Mainly because of the particularity of microfracture surgery, which requires rest, and he is a person who cannot lie down. Being bedridden for such a long time is also a kind of torture for him.

Jamie's stem cell therapy project team has been set up, but he doesn't know how long it will take to get results, or even whether they will be able to get results.

After leaving the operating room and briefly explaining the situation to Liu Yudong's wife, Chen Yu took advantage of the time before lunch to visit Yagudin again.

The clinic originally did not have a psychological chat room, but because of Ankiel, Chen Yu temporarily changed a lounge to be used as a psychological chat room.

Once a week, today is not appointment time.

After checking the room, I came out and bumped into Jamie.

Seeing Chen Yu come in, Anjier stood up immediately, rushed up quickly, and said eagerly: "Chen, I feel very bad now. I have been taking medicine for so long, why is it always bad? When will you cure me?"

This is a very bad habit.

But there is no way, if you think about it, you have to support it.

"Okay, I'll find a container later and soak it in formalin for you." Since he made the request, Chen Yu followed suit and readily agreed.

Finally looking up at the observation room, Chen Yu turned and left the operating room.

Pushing the door open, Ankiel was sitting on the sofa restlessly, biting the nails of his right hand.

His voice got louder and louder, his face was full of irritability, he kept pulling his hair, and his eyes were a little red, maybe he didn't get a good rest.

He kept talking about his situation in an incoherent manner, and finally suddenly roared at Chen Yu: "You are a liar. You clearly said you could cure me before, but now I have spent money, but I Still not good.”

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment.

It's been a really long time since anyone said they were liars.

"Rick, calm down."

Ankiel shook his head wildly, raised his fist and shouted: "I can't calm down, you know I'm done?"

Jamie was startled and quickly stepped forward to hug Ankiel.

"What, you still want to hit me?" Chen Yu shouted sharply after being stunned.

With his mood like this, he could have been sedated and sent to a mental hospital.

Facing Chen Yu's stern gaze, Ankiel suddenly deflated and shook his head in panic: "No, I didn't."

Jamie quickly helped Ankiel sit down again and gave Chen Yu a questioning look.

Chen Yu was a little strange. During the psychotherapy last week, Ankiel was in pretty good condition. The two chatted a lot about his hobbies and even talked about a beautiful girl he met at a business banquet. I was too scared to strike up a conversation, and ended up missing the opportunity. I still think about it and feel regretful.

He has even begun to dream about his future life, buying a big house and marrying a beloved girl.

When Chen Yu was treating him, it always had a psychological effect, and he clearly felt that his condition was getting better. Why did it happen so suddenly?

"Rick, what happened?" Chen Yu squatted down, grabbed Ankiel's right hand with both hands, applied a little force, then looked directly at Ankiel, and asked in a stable tone.

Because of Ankier, Chen Yu really took the time to study psychology, especially communication skills in dealing with patients.

Even Chen Yu made adjustments to his tone of voice and the thickness of his voice.

It definitely has an effect.

For example, now, Ankier was obviously calmer, and then said: "Chen, I'm done. I was laid off by the team. They think Sean performed better and can completely replace me, so I'm done." Chen Yu Cursing secretly, it was not the fault of Ankiel's sudden emotional breakdown, it turned out that he was laid off.

Also, he left the team for a whole year. In any professional league, competition is fierce. If you leave, someone will naturally seize the opportunity to step up.

But calm down and think about it, the Cardinals are interesting enough. They are not a weak team, they are a strong team that can compete in the World Series. They gave Ankiel more than a year and two full seasons to recover.

The most critical thing is that Ankiel suffered from Yip syndrome and lost his pitching ability. After being cut by the Cardinals, it was impossible for him to get a professional contract with other teams.

At the golden age of 22, just when he was about to start a brilliant career, his career was over.

Moreover, Chen Yu knew that his family conditions were not good and he was counting on this job.

Just as he was about to speak, Chen Yu suddenly heard a system prompt in his ear.

After a subconscious glance, Chen Yu unexpectedly discovered that he had obtained a technology.

[Through continuous efforts and training, you have initially mastered excellent psychological language communication skills and acquired primary psychological language communication skills]

[During psychotherapy, your verbal communication will be more convincing]

Strangely, there are no specific bonuses.

Isn’t persuasiveness quantifiable?

Chen Yu didn't have time to think deeply, his attention was still on Anjir.

Chen Yu is not surprised about acquiring technology.

The Suns' psychological chat room has been running for so long. Sometimes when communicating with other people, Chen Yu will subconsciously use psychological communication skills. This is actually a kind of training and experience.

It can only be said that it is normal to acquire technology for so long.

Unfortunately, the technology now available is of little use to Ankiel.

A career that you have been practicing for more than ten years and working hard for all your life comes to an abrupt end when it is about to reap the rewards. That kind of blow can be described as devastating and cannot be solved by just a few words.

"Chen, what should I do now?" Ankiel held Chen Yu's hand tightly. He was a big man, but he was bursting into tears at this moment: "This year, I have worked very hard and tried my best to get treatment. I went to practice and tried to recover, but I just couldn’t, I felt like my brain was broken.”

He suddenly went crazy and started banging his head.

Jamie couldn't hold down such a muscular man.

Chen Yu immediately went out, called a few nurses, held down Anjier, and gave him an injection to calm him down.

The tranquilizer took effect and Ankiel stopped struggling.

Jamie wiped the sweat from his forehead, put his hands on his hips and said, "Chen, this won't work. I feel like he has a mental breakdown. How about contacting a mental hospital?"

Chen Yuxin said, "Don't cause trouble. He is a good person. He admitted himself and was sent to a mental hospital. That would be too embarrassing."

"Let me ask about the situation." Chen Yu took out his mobile phone, looked up his agent Rick's number, called him, and asked about Ankiel's layoff.

On the phone, Rick's tone was full of helplessness: "The Cardinals don't want to give up on him. He is really talented and has the potential to lead the Cardinals to glory, but it has been two seasons and they can't wait. Sorry Chen, this It's their final decision, and when the season is over, Rick will be laid off."

Chen Yu hung up the phone, but Rick didn't say much useful information.

Staring at Ankiel with wandering eyes, Chen Yu felt heavy. If he didn't do something, this person would really be finished, not only his career, but also his life.

At this time, Chen Yu didn't even dare to send him home for fear of an accident.

But Chen Yu really didn't know how to treat him.

In the entire medical community, no one knew how to treat IPC.

Chen Yu believed that the previous treatment, which was a two-pronged approach of medication and psychology, should be effective, but now that Anjir was in such a situation, it was obvious that he no longer had time to slowly treat himself.

It can only be said that the Cardinals are a little impatient with their cuts. It's not too late to wait until the season is completely over before making cuts.

Jamie folded his arms and analyzed: "Chen, you said brain waves and electromyographic signals. We checked everything we could and compared the stages, but we couldn't find the cause. You said his brain was not healthy. It’s going to be really broken.”

Jamie meant that there was something wrong with his nerves, but Chen Yu's mind moved, and an idea came to him out of nowhere.

"I suddenly had an idea." Chen Yu asked Jamie to go away, and then whispered: "He always says that there is something wrong with his brain, so what if we tell him that there is something wrong with his brain, and then we need to Let’s do an operation and completely solve the problem.”

"Of course, we are not actually opening his head to perform surgery, but pretending to perform an operation and giving him a psychological signal, just like phantom limb pain, to deceive his brain."

"After the surgery, we'll start all over again."

The more Chen Yu thought about it, the more he felt that this might be a way: "You know, the medical community speculates that the emergence of Yipu syndrome is related to frequent and single overtraining."

Like Ankiel, he has practiced pitching skills for so many years, and pitchers have their own way of pitching in order to throw good balls.

This method is also very harmful to the body. Over a long period of time, the muscles have formed a memory. When IPC occurs, if you continue to train and try to retrieve the previous muscle memory, it will obviously continue to trigger symptoms.

"So we told him that after this operation, he would be like reinstalling a computer. He would have to train a pitching method from scratch and let his body adapt again. Maybe it would be effective."

Even if it doesn't work, it can at least solve Ankiel's mental breakdown.

Jamie was startled. He didn't comment on what happened later, but pretending to be performing a brain surgery on the front was too unreasonable.
