Chapter 1386 - 865: This Is What You Wanted

The patient's sudden voice left Du Heng bewildered, making him only able to lower his head and pretend he hadn't heard.

But the patient wouldn't let it go, saying, "Doctor Du, when the nurse measured my blood pressure this morning, she said it was 140/100, almost like a normal person.

Plus, I'm feeling really good myself. Can you check again? If I'm truly better, then I'll go through the discharge process.

During this time, being hospitalized is driving me crazy."

This time the patient's voice was loud, so loud that Du Heng couldn't pretend he hadn't heard it.

The people who followed in to watch the spectacle were all looking at him, their gazes making him uncomfortable.

With no other choice, Du Heng turned around, struggled to muster a smile, and said, "Whether you can be discharged depends on your attending doctor.

Your attending physician knows your situation best; they will surely arrange for you. If you want to be discharged, ask your attending physician more.

Besides, your issue isn't just hypertension but also coronary heart disease caused by hypertension.

So don't rush to be discharged; control the diseases completely before speaking again."

Du Heng was stating facts, but the patient seemed not to hear, responding with words that made Du Heng feel awkward enough to cringe, "Doctor Du, I'm trusting your words now. If you say I'm better, I'll be discharged. If you say I still need treatment, I'll obediently lay back."

The patient glanced at Deputy Director Fan and Fan's little follower who came in together, "I've been hospitalized for so long, and my illness hasn't improved.

Now, I don't really believe what they're saying; I trust only what you say."

These words put Du Heng in a difficult position, making it awkward whether he speaks or stays silent.

After the patient said these words, when Du Heng looked at him again, his gaze was filled with shock and confusion.

Such words are unlikely to come from a person with emotional and intellectual intelligence at a normal level.

This is obviously offending people, and it's the very doctor treating his illness he's offending; has he forgotten that Du Heng isn't a local doctor? Will he not seek treatment from local doctors if he falls ill again?

Due to yesterday's events, Du Heng knew this patient had a stubborn temper, but isn't this being too stubborn?

It's an action that overtly narrows one's path.

Though Du Heng didn't care if he narrowed his path, he was narrowing his own now.

Though his words brought a secret sense of joy to Du Heng's heart, they also made him wary of looking at that Deputy Director's face.

Out of curiosity, Du Heng glanced at Deputy Director Fan beside him.

The result was almost exactly as he imagined; Deputy Director Fan's expression was foul, as foul as could be.

Du Heng gently exhaled.

At this point, letting Deputy Director Fan and the others speak would be inappropriate; he could only try to smooth things over a bit himself.

With a slight turn of thoughts, he immediately said with a serious expression, "You're being a bit heartless here, big brother.

Your issue isn't that the doctors around you can't treat you, but your lack of cooperation that led to yesterday's outcome.

Therefore, you can't put all the blame on the medical care around you.

During your hospitalization days, although you didn't cooperate with treatment, these doctors have been constantly finding ways, and the nurses have been caring for you tirelessly day and night."

Du Heng's speech was not fast, but he spoke clearly, ensuring that everyone present could hear every word he said.

When these words reached everyone's ears, the expressions of those present varied widely.

Some had eyes full of admiration, admiring Du Heng's brilliant medical skills while acknowledging his exceptional character.

Others had eyes filled with surprise.

Like Deputy Director Fan now, he believed Du Heng was aware of his attitude yesterday, so he didn't expect Du Heng would actually speak in their favor.

Du Heng didn't look at others, just continued to seriously say to the patient, "You might think your only problem is high blood pressure, which causes heart discomfort, and that it's not a big issue.

But I must tell you, your condition is very dangerous.

During the period when your condition is severe, your blood pressure may break through the blood vessels at any time, and your heart may face overwork and strike risks at any time."

Watching Du Heng speak so seriously made the playful patient immediately turn sullen.

But Du Heng didn't care whether the patient's expression was pleasant or not; he continued to say, "And these two risks, I'm sure these doctors have tirelessly explained them to you numerous times.

But judging by your previous or current attitude, you haven't taken them seriously."

With Du Heng reaffirming their work, Deputy Director Fan and the others unconsciously straightened their backs slightly, and their gaze towards Du Heng became warmer.

The only person whose face looked unpleasant was the patient himself.

"You know well the consequences of a heart disease attack, which is death, and you're surely aware of what death is like."

Du Heng's demeanor was calm, staring at the patient and slowly saying, "And with such high blood pressure, cerebral hemorrhage is inevitable.

Judging by your expression, you might not be fully aware of the consequences of cerebral hemorrhage."
