Medical road ahead

"I just heard such a rumor, and I don't know if it's true."

Seeing Dr. Han's complexion changed drastically, the patient was immediately annoyed, and changed his words: "It's just hearsay."

When Dr. Han saw this, he didn't ask any more questions, but continued to persuade him to relax and get treatment, and he would definitely wait until the day when the kidney source was discharged.

After Dr. Han left, another patient in the dialysis room whispered, "Is what you just said true or false?"

"Fake, fake."

The patient frowned and waved his hands, and kept silent about it.

The latter patient didn't ask any more questions, but secretly slandered in his heart: The so-called groundless rumors, any gossip will not spread for no reason.

"Hi doctor, if you can't drain the kidney source, can you ask Dr. Qin from your hospital to help you buy it from regular channels?"

At the same time, Jin Xue also received a similar online consultation.

Jin Xue replied immediately: "There is no formal channel for purchasing human organs. In our country, any sale of organs is illegal! Also, who is Dr. Qin you are talking about?"

If she remembered correctly, someone mentioned Dr. Qin's purchase of a kidney last time.

So, who is that doctor Qin?Also, is this true or false?

If it is fake, why do people come to consult one after another?

If it is true, then this matter is even more frightening.

"Isn't it Dr. Qin from your hospital?" the man asked back.

"No."

Jin Xue replied, and then asked again: "Excuse me, where did you find out about this?"

The man replied: "I heard from my friend. I don't know exactly where he learned about it."

Weird!

Jin Xue thought to herself, and kept this matter in her heart, planning to investigate the ins and outs of it.

Her intuition has always been very accurate, and she always feels that there are some weird tricks in it, but she can't explain why.

"Doctor Qin"

Then, rubbing her chin, she counted the doctors surnamed "Qin" in the hospital one by one, "Except for Qin Xiao, the others are all ordinary residents and attending doctors. If there is such a doctor as Qin, it should not be Qin Xiao." That's right."

"Director Qin, please come here."

In the Department of Endocrinology, Huang Zhi suddenly knocked on the door of Qin Xiao's office and beckoned to him mysteriously.

"what happened?"

Qin Xiao put down the document in his hand, followed her to his consulting room with doubts and curiosity, and found a pale and thin little girl sitting inside.

"This is?"

Qin Xiao turned his head to look at Huang Zhi, even more puzzled.

"My patient, her mother has gone to pay the bill."

Huang Zhi said concisely, walked to the side of the little girl, touched her swollen cheeks and said, "Subacute thyroiditis in children."

"Well, what then?"

Qin Xiao was still puzzled.

After all, this kind of disease is not difficult and miscellaneous, he didn't understand why Huang Zhi would call him here specially, and made it so mysterious.

"She is an atypical case."

Huang Zhi caressed the little girl's partially swollen cheeks, and said, "There are no systemic symptoms, only low-grade fever, and no obvious thyroid tenderness."

"Then what do you think?"

Qin Xiao was in a fog when he heard it.

Huang Zhi glanced outside the door, and further said: "The child's mother said that the child had a viral cold before. I speculate that she should be infected by bacteria or viruses, which caused the mumps inflammation."

"Ah."

Qin Xiao nodded in agreement, and then said: "There is no specific treatment for this disease, you can try prednisone drugs, but pay attention to the dosage, if you continue to relapse after stopping the drug, you can add some hormones to cooperate with it. By the way, check it out, she Whether there is a problem of hypothyroidism, if so, use thyroid powder. Because she is in an atypical situation, analgesic and antipyretic drugs such as aspirin, indomethacin, and phenylbutazone can be temporarily stopped."

Huang Zhi nodded, glanced at the door again, then walked up to Qin Xiao, and whispered to him: "Her mother is also sick."

"what?"

Qin Xiao was dumbfounded.

Is this scolding?
Seeing Qin Xiao staring in astonishment, Huang Zhi hastily added: "I'm not sure yet, but I think her mother is sick."

"Doctor, the medicine has been prescribed, what else should I pay attention to?"

As soon as Huang Zhi finished speaking, a fashionable but elegant woman walked in, picked up the little girl, and prepared to leave.

"cough!"

Huang Zhi raised her hair with one hand, pretending to be calm and said: "This disease is a self-limiting disease. It will last for 2 to 9 months at most and it will be completely cured. Generally, the prognosis is relatively good, so there is nothing to worry about. It is enough for the child to take the medicine on time."

"It's gone?"

Hearing this, the little girl's mother blinked in disappointment, which puzzled Qin Xiao who was at the side.

Isn't it good that you don't need to pay special attention?
Huang Zhi went on to say: "If you have to pay attention to something, go back and add some clothes to the child. If you catch a cold again in the future, remember to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Otherwise, if you wait too long, the child's condition will be aggravated and other problems will arise."

"Okay, I know."

After the little girl's mother nodded her head in thanks, she led the little girl out of the consulting room.

boom--

As soon as the two left, Huang Zhi quickly closed the door, pulled Qin Xiao and said, "This little girl named Wei Wei is an old patient in our hospital, and it's not the first time I've seen a doctor for her. At the beginning of last year, you still Before I came to our hospital, I checked her for an endocrine problem."

"Any questions?"

Qin Xiao finally sniffed out something unusual.

Huang Zhi frowned and said, "I suspect that the child's illness was caused by her mother's abuse."

"How did you find out? I don't see any signs of abuse except that the child is a little weaker!" Qin Xiao wondered.

Huang Zhi asked without answering: "Do you know that there is a mental illness called 'Meng Qiaosen Syndrome'?"

Qin Xiao said uncertainly: "I seem to have heard of it, but Wei Wei doesn't seem to be pretending to be sick on purpose!"

"It's not Wei Wei, but Mother Wei."

Huang Zhi shook her head and explained: "Munchausen syndrome can be divided into two types, one is general Munchausen syndrome, and the other is surrogate Munchausen syndrome. Mother Wei belongs to the second type."

"Proxy Munchausen Syndrome?"

Qin Xiao obviously hadn't heard of it.

Huang Zhi further explained: "Most people think that in order to win sympathy, patients with Munchausen syndrome will deliberately pretend to be sick to attract others' attention and concern, or even self-mutilation. But in fact, there is another situation, that is, acting as a proxy for Munchausen syndrome. Known as 'artificial disorder imposed on others', the etiology is similar to the former, but the disorder is not self-abuse, but deliberately pretends to be sick or injured in family members, so as to take care of them and get attention at the same time.

If the disguise is not successful, real harm may be done to them, such as Wei Wei's situation.In fact, Dr. Lu from the Department of Pediatrics had already discovered that Wei Wei might be abused, but after the examination, she did not find any injuries on her body, nor did she ask anything from her. This heart is suspicious.

Later, when we were having dinner together, she accidentally mentioned Wei Wei. I thought the name sounded familiar. When I asked for details, I found out that it was the same child patient. "

"Then why did her mother bring her to see endocrinology last year?" Qin Xiao asked.

Huang Zhining said: "Precocious puberty."
