Chapter 325: Exposed in Front of Everyone
Standing to the side, the doctors’ expressions looked intrigued. They sized up Gu Mang. They were taken aback that she could list out the symptoms. However, it would mean nothing if she could not cure the First Lady. They had been treating her for six years and there had been no improvement. All types of equipment had been used but they all showed that the different parts of the body were healthy. They even tested for viral infection but the results showed that everything was normal.
Without being able to find the root cause, there was naturally no way to prescribe the right remedy for the illness. Up until this point had no idea what was wrong with her.
It was highly probable that Madam was suffering from hysteria so she had visceral hallucinations. The president was planning to have a psychologist to a.s.sist them in the treatment.
Gu Mang looked at Mrs. Hill casually. “Madam, were the symptoms that I said correct?”
Mrs. Hill returned to her senses and became agitated. She suppressed her slightly trembling hands and her eyes radiated with vigor. “Mm.”
Gu Mang asked again, “Has it been six years?”
“Yes.” It was as though shel saw hope. Her eyes were glistening. “May I ask what illness I am suffering from?”
“Running Piglet Syndrome,” Gu Mang said the three words as she took her bag and rummaged through it to look for her acupuncture needles.
The First Lady had never heard of this term. Seeing that Gu Mang was not going to explain, she looked towards the doctors. They merely exchanged glances with each other.
The presidential palace’s Chief Doctor pursed his lips and explained, “Running Piglet Syndrome is used in Chinese traditional medicine. It is known as an acute coronary syndrome in western medicine. We checked Madam’s heart functions and everything was normal. Miracle Doctor, did you… make the wrong diagnosis?”
Gu Mang was removing her acupuncture bag. Upon hearing this, she pressed her hands on the table as she slowly turned around. Her eyes cold. Lin Shuang looked at the group of doctors without any expression.
Another doctor frowned as well. “Running piglet syndrome is usually triggered by liver depression and Qi stagnation. To put it simply, it’s a mood disorder. Why would Madam have such an illness?”
“It seems like the Miracle Doctor is intending to use acupuncture. I think it’s better that we get the psychologist here.” The person speaking shot a glance at the acupuncture bag which Gu Mang was retrieving. His tone was filled with disdain.
“From what I know, Running Piglet Syndrome happens mostly because of mental stimulation. Let’s ask Madam first if there was anything that happened in the last few years which caused her mental health to deteriorate?”
“That’s right. If we treat Madam based on the Running Piglet Syndrome diagnosis, something might happen to Madam’s normally functioning body parts.”
Gu Mang did not reply.
The presidential palace’s doctors looked towards the First Lady and asked politely, “Madam, have you suffered from mental trauma in the past few years?”
Hill shook her head and replied with certainty, “None.”
Her husband had been good to her and her daughter was well-accomplished and was studying for her doctorate at H University. Her life had been very peaceful.
“Did you hear that?” The doctor who spoke looked at Gu Mang and his eyes were filled with mockery. “She has not been troubled for the last few years so why did you diagnose her as having running piglet syndrome?”
Was this person really the Miracle Doctor? Could this person be an impostor? She would not even dare to show her face. Hearing their words, Joston’s sharp gaze landed on Gu Mang.
Noelle did not know which side she should believe either. She had always doubted traditional Chinese medicine but Western medicine had failed to help her mother. She thought had no other choice but to try with Gu Mang.
Gu Mang remained silent.
“Can’t say anything? Or did you not expect that we would understand traditional Chinese medicine?” a doctor asked in a manner which he thought was polite and smiled.
Having been exposed in front of everyone, the Miracle Doctor was nothing more than this.
Gu Mang chuckled softly. As she crossed her legs and leaned backwards, she said calmly, “You know quite a lot.”
