Chapter 276 Intestinal Obstruction
There is a hard feeling when pressed.
It's as if something is blocking the gut.
Is it intestinal obstruction?
"Did your symptoms appear suddenly, or did you have similar symptoms before?"
"It appeared suddenly!" The old lady replied without hesitation, "I was in good health before, and I have never had any illness."
"Who knew that this old man still has minor problems. It's really a drag on the family."
Chen Dong said in relief: "Old lady, don't think so, your son and the others must also hope that you can be healthy."
The old lady's two sons nodded wildly.
"Yes, Mom, this doctor spoke my mind."
"Your health is the happiest thing for the two of us."
"Your health is more important than anything else."
Chen Dong could tell that these two sons were quite filial and did not raise them for nothing.
The old lady sighed, and there were tears in her eyes: "Son, I also know that you are doing it for my own good, but the treatment costs so much money."
Chen Dong: "Don't worry, old lady, let me see what's wrong with you first."
"Is your pain persistent?"
The old lady nodded: "Every time it hurts, it takes a long time."
"Have you experienced nausea, vomiting, fever, blood in your stool, diarrhea or constipation?"
The old lady answered very honestly: "It didn't happen before, but it has during this time."
"I don't know what's going on, I always feel nauseous."
"But I can't vomit again. This symptom is similar to when I was pregnant with my two sons."
If her husband hadn't been dead for many years, she would have wondered if she was pregnant again.
Basically, it can be judged that this is intestinal obstruction.
"You guys go for a routine checkup first."
When she heard about the examination, the old lady suddenly became nervous.
She is not afraid of the examination, but worried about medical expenses.
The old lady asked cautiously, "What kind of examination does the doctor have to do?"
Chen Dong quickly opened several forms and handed them to the old lady's two sons.
"This is the inspection that will be done later, take a look."
He also knew that the family might be worried about medical expenses, so he explained it in detail.
"Examinations mainly include blood routine, blood gas analysis, serum electrolytes and renal function tests."
"What? So many checks?"
The old lady said in shock.
Wouldn't that cost a lot of money?
"Son, we won't do it, we won't do this test, mom is fine!"
"I don't think there is a big problem with my symptoms."
Chen Dongnai calmly persuaded, "I preliminarily judge that your mother is suffering from intestinal obstruction."
"Because intestinal obstruction can cause patients to lose a large amount of water, electrolytes, acid-base substances, etc., patients who are considering the diagnosis of intestinal obstruction routinely need to draw blood to check the above items to understand the physiological status of the whole body and make corresponding corrections."
"These checks are done anyway."
The old lady said directly: "What are you talking about? I can't understand a word."
"I'm fine, why do you want to see a doctor?"
"Okay, okay, don't persuade me, I won't do it."
But the old lady's two sons pressed her directly on the chair.
"Mom, can you listen to the two of us once?"
"We can still afford it before this inspection."
After a moment of silence, the old lady said: "Xiaobao is still in the hospital, and I don't know how much it will cost in the future. You should leave the money for Xiaobao to see a doctor."
"I'm an old woman, and I don't have much health problems. Besides, I've lived enough for such an old age."
The two sons began to persuade the old lady with their tongues.
During their chat, Chen Dong found out.
It turned out that the family was not very rich.
The old lady raised two sons all her life, and when the two sons grew up, she thought that the pressure on her shoulders would be less.
But my wife died of cancer a few years ago.
In order to treat their husband's illness, they spent all their savings in the family.
Unexpectedly, his wife died in the end.
For this originally poor family, it was a painful blow.
Fortunately, the two brothers were harmonious and hardworking, and they soon started their own families.
Although the small life was poor, but happy.
The two daughters-in-law are also educated and reasonable, one is more filial than the other.
But not long ago the accident happened again.
The eldest son's son, the grandson of the old lady, accidentally had an accident when he was crossing the road.
The driver who hit the vehicle fled.
The huge medical expenses made the family overwhelmed.
It was hard to wait until his grandson's condition improved, and he could be discharged from the hospital after a while.
As a result, the old lady's own body collapsed again.
No wonder the old lady was so resistant to treatment.
It turned out to be for family reasons.
Everyone in the emergency room was sympathetic.
The life of this family is really hard.
But Chen Dong still planned to persuade a few more words, after all, the old lady didn't know what to do in the current situation?
"Old lady, money can be earned again, now the most important thing is to take care of your health."
The old lady was very stubborn, and she was unwilling to be a burden to her son no matter what.
Even though the two sons were about to talk dry, she didn't agree.
But from these two sons, Chen Dong saw what filial piety is.
In this fast-paced era of life, many young people will dislike the elderly at home and drag their own footsteps.
It is really rare to meet such a filial person.
Their families are indeed very difficult. If it is really intestinal obstruction, the treatment costs will be quite a lot.
Chen Dong fell into deep thought, how can he help this family?
