you are my lungs

In the afternoon of that day, Qin Baichuan prescribed oral medicine to He Qi for a week, and liquid for another three days.

He Qi asked if he could take the fluid back to the community hospital for hanging, which was too far away from his home.

Qin Baichuan told him regretfully: "It's really not good... Tuberculosis patients can only be treated here, and community hospitals can't give you this injection."

He Qi became even more desperate when he thought that he would have to take the bus for an hour and a half every day to come here for the infusion.

Qin Baichuan asked him, "Where do you live?"

"... South College Road."

"What a coincidence," Qin Baichuan smiled sympathetically, "My family also lives there, and I have to go to work for more than an hour every day."

He Qi thought about it for a while and asked, "Can I be hospitalized?"——so he wouldn't have to run back and forth.

"...If you want to be hospitalized, it's not impossible," Qin Baichuan pointed upstairs, "The patients who are hospitalized here are all those who are particularly serious, complicated by pleurisy, and complicated by aspergillosis. You can’t stop coughing, and if you live with them, it’s easy to infect you more seriously.”

"...Okay." He Qi resigned to his fate, and took the order to get the medicine.

"Hey wait, I haven't finished talking yet." Qin Baichuan held him back, "rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, these four drugs are anti-tuberculosis, three times a day Dun, three pills, no less at a time, don't forget to take the medicine, remember?"

He Qi nodded: "Remember." He was in a mess right now, he just wanted to take the medicine and go home quickly, and he almost lost the strength to speak.

Qin Baichuan was really convinced, he had almost never seen such a passive patient.

However, he can also understand that tuberculosis is a particularly exhausting disease. It not only consumes physical strength, but also tends to make people extremely negative psychologically.Why is it that I came to see the doctor alone, and I didn't even have anyone to accompany me, so my mentality was even more negative.

"You must not stop the medicine, you know? You must not stop the medicine. If you stop the medicine, the tuberculosis in your body will become drug-resistant, and it will be troublesome if you try to cure it." Qin Baichuan said the important words three times.

He Qi nodded.

"Usually open the windows to ventilate the house more often, take more walks and exercise more if you have nothing to do, and eat more nutritious milk and eggs, remember?"

He Qi nodded.

"The results of your sputum test will be released tomorrow. If it is contagious, you will have to suspend school. This must be subject to the arrangement. After all, what you have is an infectious disease. This is not your own business. You have to treat the surrounding people The person is in charge. We have to create a file here, and we have to notify your school when it’s over.”

As soon as He Qi heard that he was going to inform the school, he knew that the suspension of school could not be avoided, so he could only ask: "What if my sputum test result is not contagious?"

Qin Baichuan thought about it for a while: "Then...in principle, you don't need to suspend your studies. But, I see that your physical condition is not good, and you have become so thin. I still suggest that you take a leave of absence and rest for a while."

He Qi realized that this person was looking him up and down, and couldn't help shrinking back.

... am I skinny?

Qin Baichuan pulled out a tuberculosis patient file from the cabinet behind him, and filled in the information on the medical record.

The file was very large, with name, address, phone number, work unit, everything had to be filled in, He Qi watched him write there one stroke at a time, and suddenly realized that this person was quite patient.

After filling in the column of family members, Qin Baichuan asked him the names and contact information of his family members.

He Qi was silent for a while: "...No."

Qin Baichuan looked at him in surprise.

"Both my parents have just passed away, and my family... has no relatives here."

Qin Baichuan wanted to say a few words to comfort him, but was at a loss for words.

Finally, fill in He Qi's tutor.

It was only [-]:[-] after filling out the file. He Qi went to the lobby to get the medicine, and then returned to the tuberculosis clinic for infusion.

There are two bottles of liquid for a day, and the nurse put the needle on him. He Qi leaned on the chair and didn't want to move.

Only now did he feel that he was really sick.

There were always people coming and going in and out of the infusion room. He Qi was sitting near the door, and the door opened and closed from time to time. He started coughing again when it was hot and cold.

After a while, he suddenly felt pain in his arm. The feeling was indescribable, as if the blood vessels in the entire arm were stretched open by something thorny.

He asked the nurse. The nurse said that azithromycin is irritating to the blood vessels. It is inevitable that I will not adapt to this medicine for the first time. There is nothing I can do but bear it.

How uncomfortable to close your eyes.

It really hurts.The pain made the whole arm and shoulders stiff, and cold sweat broke out on the forehead.

...if only someone could come and keep him company.

It's a pity that the people who could accompany him are no longer there.

It's not that he has never made friends, it's just that the paths of life are different, and no matter how close they are, the feast will end one day.

He is also the old man of his parents, and now he is less than 30 years old, and his parents have passed away one after another.

He also once admired someone, and that was when he was in junior high school...a silhouette sitting by the classroom window...

A towel was placed on his hand with the needle buried in the mist, He Qi woke up with a start, and saw Qin Baichuan's side face about to turn around and leave.

He was shocked, and the shadow in his memory suddenly overlapped with the person in front of him.

"Hey, are you awake?" Qin Baichuan turned to look at him, "How do you feel? Your hands are too cold, cover them with something."

Only then did He Qi notice the towel covering his hand, and thanked him repeatedly.

Qin Baichuan said that you are welcome, you are welcome, "I am off work, I will go back first. Don't stand up immediately after you lose, sit here for a while, azithromycin is quite irritating... remember to take medicine when you go back tonight, Starting today, eat three meals a day, and you must not stop eating."

He Qi was particularly moved: "I remember Doctor Qin, thank you."

Qin Baichuan didn't say anything, just said goodbye and left.

He Qi watched him for a long time before he came back to his senses.

Qin Baichuan was the person he had a crush on once.
