Chapter 525: I’m Not Going To Die, Am I?
Of course, Zheng Ren would not ask her how she did the check-up. Since the family had confirmed it, he would sign for it later and make sure to keep it in the record.
“Do you feel like anything has happened recently?” Zheng Ren asked.
“No, my daughter is in her third year. She came home suddenly yesterday and told me she was pregnant. After that, she vomited,” the patient’s mother said hesitantly. She did not understand either.
When it came to such privacy, Zheng Ren could only ask a few questions. If he asked again… The facial expression of the mother already looked quite ugly. It was hard to say if she would lose her temper.
“If you’re sure that she’s not pregnant, we’ll find a gynecologist to do a physical examination,” Zheng Ren said.
“Okay.” The patient’s mother did not hesitate with her answer at all.
Zheng Ren immediately made a call and found a gynecologist. Then, he thought about how to solve the problem.
The gynecology department’s Chief Resident said that the emergency department did not have an examining bed, so he asked Zheng Ren to just push the patient to the gynecology department. Zheng Ren knew that this was also the truth, so he carried the patient to a stretcher trolley and rushed to the gynecology department.
There were many people at home, so Zheng Ren did not need to reach out.
As he walked, Zheng Ren thought about how to solve the problem.
Su Yun followed beside Zheng Ren and asked in a low voice, “Boss, what are your suspicions?”
“Hysteria,” Zheng Ren said.
“It’s very rare for hysteria to increase the level of hormones in a person’s body. Be careful,” Su Yun said.
“Aren’t they being very cautious?” Zheng Ren looked at the patient’s family members of in front of him and whispered softly, “The patient’s mother said that the patient’s hymen hasn’t been broken yet, so she can’t be pregnant. Therefore, I’ll get a gynecologist to check it out. If it’s not broken, I’ll think about what to do.”
“What else can be done? Just let her go home,” Su Yun said. “She’s full of drama. That’s how I see this whole ordeal.”
“Don’t say that,” Zheng Ren said. “When you were in school, did you learn about organ diseases? I’m sure that many of your cla.s.smates felt uncomfortable then.”
Su Yun was stunned for a moment before he shook his head with a smile.
This was a question that all medical students knew was common sense.
No matter what organ they were learning about that day, they would always have cla.s.smates like that who were uncomfortable. It was not just one or two who felt that their organs in that area felt off that day.
The specific symptoms…were exactly the same as what was described in the textbook.
Therefore, after entering the clinic, doctors were very wary of guided consultation.
Every guidance would subconsciously make the patient think that they had all sorts of symptoms that the doctor had mentioned.
For example, pain and spasms…
For some reason, this little patient thought that she was pregnant.
However, for someone like her who even had a weak positive urine test during early pregnancy, she was just one of many who had fallen to the same thing.
Therefore, Zheng Ren was still cautious. He would rather go through a routine checkup to confirm that she did not have any past history.
As for what he should do after confirming it, Zheng Ren was still hesitating.
How worrying. Zheng Ren sighed.
According to Su Yun, it was also feasible to just let the patient go home.
However, when he saw the young patient lying on the bed and vomiting gastric juice, Zheng Ren could not bear it.
‘Let us give this a try.’ An idea appeared in his mind.
Perhaps, it was the only way.
When they were about to reach the gynecology department, Zheng Ren quickened his pace and went in first to find the Chief Resident of the gynecology department to explain the situation.
The gynecology department’s Chief Resident was also very surprised. This was the first time she had heard of such a patient.
However, she did not have much work to do. Because she had a few interactions with Zheng Ren and he had previously helped to solve some difficult problems for the gynecology department, she had a very good impression of Zheng Ren.
“Chief Zheng, be careful. There are some special circ.u.mstances for the hymen to not break. It could be an actual pregnancy,” the gynecology department’s Chief Resident softly reminded him.
Zheng Ren nodded. He had heard about those situations from many doctors over the years, but most of them were just rumors.
Moreover, with the System’s diagnosis and all sorts of examinations and tests, Zheng Ren was not very worried about the small probability of unlikely things occurring.
The gynecology department’s Chief Resident was also very experienced. She told the patient with a serious face that she was pregnant and needed to undergo a pregnancy test.
The patient obviously accepted this statement, so she pushed the patient into the gynecology department’s examination room while accompanied by the patient’s mother.
Zheng Ren, Su Yun, and the other family members waited outside.
Looking at Zheng Ren’s expression, Su Yun had already guessed that he had made a decision, so he came over and asked, “Boss, don’t you want her to go back home?”
“Seeing how she vomited so badly, I wanted to help her,” Zheng Ren said.
“You shouldn’t be looking for trouble even if there’s nothing to do.” Su Yun was very disdainful toward Zheng Ren’s words.
Help? How? What a joke!
Zheng Ren did not pay attention to Su Yun. He was still deep in thought trying to figure out where the flaws were in his method and whether it would cause harm to the patient.
Soon, the gynecology department’s Chief Resident came out. The patient’s family went to help the patient into the wheelchair.
“Chief Zheng, it’s okay. What the family said is true. It’s not broken,” the Chief Resident whispered into Zheng Ren’s ear.
Zheng Ren nodded.
Then they would do it.
After pus.h.i.+ng the patient back to the emergency room, Zheng Ren talked with the patient’s family.
The diagnosis of the patient was already very clear. It was a type of hysteria.
Either they decided to not get treatment and pray that it would slowly resolve itself in the next few days, or he could give it a try. He had to treat her heart disease with medication. It was hard to say whether it would work. Moreover, this was not a normal diagnosis and treatment. Certain things would depend on the situation.
The family chose to give it a try and signed the papers.
After doing the preparatory work, Zheng Ren asked the nurse to inject a tranquilizer into the patient’s muscles. After that, he came up to the patient’s bedside and said gently, “You were diagnosed to be pregnant but there was a small problem. In short, you need to have an abortion”
The young patient looked at Zheng Ren with tears in her eyes as she vomited. She said pitifully, “Doctor, I won’t die, right? A cla.s.smate of ours had an abortion a few days ago. She bled out and almost died.”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Ren’s heart constricted.
“I won’t die, right?” the young patient asked while crying.
“No, don’t worry,” Zheng Ren said. “It’s a very simple small surgery. Sea City General Hospital often does this sort of thing.”
“I really won’t die, right?” the young patient asked as she held Zheng Ren’s hand while feeling nauseous and retching.
It seemed that she was afraid of death or had seen her female cla.s.smate bleeding badly after having an abortion. It had branded a memory in her mind that could not be erased.
That was probably the case.
Zheng Ren comforted the patient for a few minutes. As the effects of the drug washed over her, the patient gradually fell asleep.
“When she wakes up, tell her the abortion has been done,” Zheng Ren reminded her family. “She’ll be in the emergency department for twenty-four hours. If there are any problems, look for me in the emergency ward upstairs.”
His family did not know if this would solve the problem, so they all sighed.
Zheng Ren also told the doctor in the emergency department that he would conduct another urine test in the morning.
On the way back to the ward, Su Yun could not help but be happy.
Zheng Ren was very serious. He had long forgotten about this matter. He returned to the emergency ward and prepared to read a magazine for a while.
