Chapter 778: Chapter 362: The Cause of Hypertension Found, Crying Mom
The boy’s father nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice, agreeing to everything, and quickly walked towards the doctor’s office.
Seeing the situation, it seemed he hadn’t been here long, but had already familiarized himself with the inpatient department.
Li Jingsheng had another matter to attend to.
He approached the nurse’s station, "Hey beautiful, could you let me know which room the child named Chen Huan is in?"
"There, in that room, bed 21."
The nurse knew Li Jingsheng and treated him with great respect.
She stood up to show him the room number.
"Dr. Li, the family of that child is really hard to convince. If we had known you could persuade them, we should have asked you to come earlier. They keep pestering us with questions every moment, doesn’t even want to deal with them."
"Haha, a family that can defeat the nurses hasn’t been born yet! Next time you encounter this, give them a good scolding. If we don’t scold them awake, they’ll think our hospital is after their money."
Li Jingsheng responded with a smile.
Pfft!
The nurse laughed so much that her little tiger teeth showed.
Another older nurse also smiled, her eyes bending in delight.
"It’s because Dr. Li’s words are pleasant to listen to. No wonder the most beautiful doctor in our hospital was won over by you. By the way, after you check on the child in the room, Director Xiao wants to see you in her office. She said there are two complex cases she wants you to help consult on."
"Alright."
Li Jingsheng quickened his pace hearing he was needed for a consultation with Director Xiao.
He needed to hurry.
Today he had plans with Ou Qinglan to finish work early.
Quickly walking into the ward, he instantly saw the little boy, pale and barely breathing as he lay on the bed.
The child’s mother anxiously looked at her child, then at her phone.
From her actions, it was unclear if she was consulting an online ’expert’ or researching medical information herself.
Ordinary people typically only find information on Baidu and Zhihu.
Baidu provides general medical knowledge, while Zhihu has many professional doctors. However, it’s hard for regular people to find their comments when searching for disease topics.
They are usually young doctors who enjoy interacting with peers.
They mainly discuss hospital issues rather than diseases.
Like the administration being idle and mismanaging.
Or a financial department old hag bringing a relative to his department to exploit privileges!
They touch upon death events, medical accidents, and so on.
Or talk about heartless, disloyal family members, unfilial children, etc.
"Is the child still feverish?"
Li Jingsheng drew the mother’s attention away from her phone screen.
"Ah, it’s Dr. Li!" She stood up quickly. "The child is still feverish. Although it subsided a bit before, now it’s severe again and he’s started rambling incoherently. I’m about to collapse from worry."
Li Jingsheng thought to himself, you’re about to collapse yet you don’t agree to the doctor’s request for an abdominal puncture check.
He had no idea what she was thinking.
Of course, this is something he definitely shouldn’t say.
"Let me take a look!"
He reached out to feel the child’s forehead which was indeed very hot, and noted the poor mental state.
Already in a state of lethargy.
"We must treat urgently. It’s crucial to cooperate with the doctor; the child appears to be in a dangerous condition."
Li Jingsheng spoke with stern concern.
"But the doctors here want to insert a needle through the child’s abdomen. I consulted with a childcare expert who mentioned this test carries significant risk. Avoid it if you can."
The child’s mother was indeed consulting online experts.
No genuine clinical doctor would make such irresponsible remarks.
Because he totally lacks awareness of the child’s current state, only acquiring symptoms from family narratives is insufficient.
Only the attending doctor has a clear understanding of the patient’s condition.
Each examination request is made with careful consideration.
"I’ve already spoken with your husband about this, asking him to find the attending doctor. Take my advice, stop believing in online doctors! Your child is seriously ill now, can those online childcare experts cure him? The doctor who can truly heal him must be a real-world doctor. To put it bluntly, the online childcare experts you consult may not even be doctors."
Li Jingsheng observed the weary young mother, unsure of what to say.
"Please, go ahead."
She understood that Li Jingsheng meant well.
"I want to ask if you’ve given your child any medication or supplements? Ones taken long-term."
Li Jingsheng questioned her.
"Yes! I usually buy things like cod liver oil and calcium capsules for him. They’re recommended by childcare experts, big brands, absolutely no issues."
She replied confidently.
"May I see the medications or supplements your child has taken regularly? Especially those consumed after age two. Because your child developed hypertension after two years old, excluding congenital heart issues, it makes me suspicious whether the meds or supplements you gave him caused harm."
The child’s mother showed a slight change in expression upon hearing Li Jingsheng’s words.
"No way! I have them all in my bag, would you like to take a look? All are big brands, some even foreign brands, there shouldn’t be any problems."
She spoke these words, clearly lacking her previous confidence.
More like self-reassurance.
Li Jingsheng took them over to examine thoroughly.
His forehead covered with black lines.
This is some miraculous mom; the child is so young, and she buys so many meds for him?
