Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 255 The Gap Between Geniuses (Additional Updates)
"Dapeng remembers the time."

After giving the last injection, Fang Yan gave instructions to Jia Dapeng who was standing beside him.

"Okay, Brother Fang." The latter immediately agreed and picked up the notebook in his hand to record the time of the patient in the bed in front of him.

Then Fang Yan followed Meng Jimin out.

After listening to his account of the situation just now, his dialect seemed a bit complicated. Normally, this kind of patient should go to a big hospital, but he ended up finding a pharmacy like theirs to treat the disease.

Fangyan also knew that most likely he was attracted by his fame.

When he arrived at Meng Jimin's desk, Fang Yan looked at the patient's symptoms listed in the medical record written by Meng Jimin, and then he took the patient's pulse again.

This time he asked more questions about urination and defecation.

The family member replied that the urine was tea-colored and the stool was dry at first and sticky at the end.

Fang Yan lowered his voice and said to Meng Jimin:
"There are many problems... The clear yang doesn't rise, the stomach qi doesn't descend, the virtual fire floats up, the qi is weak, the phlegm is stagnant in the chest, the intestines and stomach, the qi is not flowing smoothly, the left and right qi are blocked, and the qi and blood in the left leg are blocked."

"And the tongue is so cold, it should be due to qi stagnation and blood stasis, and weak heart yang. It may be related to the heart."

Meng Jimin nodded and said:

"How are you going to fix this mess?"

Fangyan frowned and said:

"Let me think about it...let me think about it."

As he said this, he came to the acupuncturist, looked at the acupuncture points above, and thought quickly in his mind.

Meng Jimin also started thinking. Although he was not used to it without his own medical notes, he was still Mr. Zhu's apprentice after all. He quickly thought of a solution and said to Fang Yan:

"Hey, Lao Fang, I think we should try your Huangqi Chongteng Drink first to clear up the qi stagnation and blood stasis, then use acupuncture to cure the hiccups, and then see the effect tomorrow."

Fang Yan glanced at Meng Jimin, thought carefully and said:

"That's a solution... but it might take a long time to do it one by one. We have to figure out the main reason why all this happened."

"It's obvious, a stroke." Meng Jimin raised his eyebrows.

Dialect waving hands:
"No, Lao Meng, you don't understand. I'm talking about what caused all this now. The stroke was just the beginning."

Meng Jimin turned his head to look at the patient, then stroked his chin and thought for a while. Seeing Fang Yan pointing to his throat, he suddenly realized:
"Oh! You mean phlegm?"

Dialect nod:

"Yes! Phlegm is a disease that affects the internal organs and the meridians, and it spreads all over the body."

"Our ancestors also said that phlegm is the root of all diseases and all diseases are caused by phlegm."

After that, he began to analyze the patient's symptoms:
"Phlegm can block the flow of Qi, affect the circulation of Qi and blood, and the metabolism of water, obscure the clear orifices, and interfere with the mind. Different clinical symptoms will occur depending on the location of phlegm stagnation."

"Take this case as an example. His limbs were blocked by phlegm, and his qi and blood were not flowing smoothly, so his limbs were weak."

"Phlegm blocks the brain meridians and obscures the clear orifices, causing dizziness and inability to open the eyes."

"When phlegm accumulates in the stomach, the qi flow is blocked, and the stomach qi rises upward, causing hiccups."

"In short, phlegm evil is everywhere, and the symptoms are complex and ever-changing."

"Pa!" Meng Jimin slapped his thigh and said in a low voice:
"Makes sense!"

"Then it's clear now. Let's use the prescription first to clear the phlegm in his body."

"After clearing the phlegm, we'll see what symptoms are left. By then, they will definitely not be so complicated."

Fang Yan thought about it, shook his head and said:
"That's true, but I think it would be more effective to use acupuncture first to relieve his symptoms and then take medicine."

"That's fine." Meng Jimin nodded and then asked:

"So how do you plan to do acupuncture?"

Fangyan pointed at the bronze acupuncture man and said:
“Zhongwan, Xiawan, Qihai, and Guanyuan regulate the Qi in the middle burner and guide the Qi back to its origin.”

"Neiguan and Gongsun can unclog stomach qi and relieve hiccups."

"Then Baihui and Yintang are used to calm the mind and unclog the Yang Qi in the head." "Then the Siguan are used to raise and lower the Qi up and down, left and right, and to regulate the Qi and blood in the limbs. I will start by unblocking the Qi and blood in his left foot. Leave the needles in all the acupuncture points for half an hour."

"Then remove the needles and observe the situation. If the head still cannot be lifted, then needle Dazhui, Fengchi, and Fengfu to dispel wind and clear the head and eyes. Do not leave the needles in."

Meng Jimin thought about it, nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll prescribe medicine and you go for acupuncture."

Fangyan asked:

"So what medicine are you going to prescribe?"

Meng Jimin said:
"My master's prescription, you know, the improved Huatan Banxia Houbu Decoction, which can dissolve phlegm and reduce stomach qi."

Fang Yan nodded after hearing this:

"Okay, I was planning to use that one too."

Then Fangyan took the patient to the back hall and started the acupuncture treatment.

Meng Jimin immediately prescribed the medicine, and then asked Le Miao to arrange for the store employees to boil it in the backyard. The prescriptions for other patients could be taken back by others to boil the medicine themselves.

However, this prescription used raw pinellia, so he didn't dare let the patient take it back and make it himself. He had to boil it for a sufficient amount of time in the store before giving it to the patient.

Otherwise, accidents are likely to happen.

The needle was left in for half an hour. After sitting for a while, the patient began to spit out several mouthfuls of thick phlegm. He immediately told his family that he felt much more relaxed.

Meng Jimin checked and found that the symptoms had indeed improved a lot, which proved that Fangyan's previous dialectical direction was correct and that it was indeed the phlegm that was causing the problem.

Meng Jimin was already somewhat impressed by Fang Yan at this time. If he had used his own method, the patient would not have recovered by now.

Dialectics tests a doctor's vision and thinking. Meng Jimin knows that his method can also cure the disease, but it will definitely take longer than that of dialectics.

After the medicine was ready, Meng Jimin watched the patient drink it.

After a while, the phlegm in the patient's throat became less.

The hiccups were also suppressed.

Only my tongue was still cold, and my left leg still couldn't move.

The situation in other aspects began to improve.

"Can you prescribe the Huangqi Chongteng Drink now to regulate the qi and blood?" Meng Jimin asked in dialect.

Fangyan felt the patient's pulse and said:
"Use Guati Powder. I feel that Qi and blood are just superficial problems. The ultimate problem is probably phlegm."

"Although most of the patient's phlegm has been removed, the phlegm in the chest and diaphragm has not been removed. The phlegm in his stomach and intestines has not been removed. The medicinal power of Guati San is used to expel the phlegm through the stool. The internal phlegm is completely removed, the gastrointestinal qi is unblocked, and the stagnation of qi and blood in the limbs disappears naturally."

"Guati San is good at vomiting out phlegm and food. It can treat symptoms such as phlegm and food blocking the upper abdomen, hardness in the chest, restlessness, and qi rushing up the throat and being unable to breathe."

"And don't you think his symptoms are very similar to the medical records of Guatisan in the Medical Mirror?"

Meng Jimin suddenly realized and remembered the story in "Yi Zong Jin Jian" spoken in dialect.

He was also impressed that Fangyan could even remember this.

Is this really a photographic memory?
Combined with the previous experience of finding the best solution among the mess of dialects, Meng Jimin discovered that the gap between people is sometimes even greater than the gap between people and dogs.

You have to know that I was once called a genius doctor.

Now I can really feel the difference.

He complained in his heart: As expected, I can only be his dog-skin plaster.

Meng Jimin said with conviction:

"Then I'll listen to you and use Guatisan!"

PS: After finishing this chapter, I still owe you 39,000.
