Under such circumstances, since a blood disease is suspected, it is normal for family members to bring the child over to seek medical treatment.
"When I was in Beidu Wu, I wasn't diagnosed right away and it was delayed for about two weeks. Because the child's initial symptoms were just a fever and no bleeding. The doctor didn't suspect a blood disease."
"You need to do a blood test if you have a fever, right?" After hearing this, several students wondered what was wrong with this.
"Parents, please dote on your children. I heard that they had to draw blood or something. This child was quite scared and would not cooperate. So he did not do a blood routine and was given antipyretic medicine to take at home. I just suspected it was a small cold."
"In this way, doesn't this family member belong to the kind of people who don't like to cooperate with the doctor from beginning to end?" asked classmate Wei Shangquan.
"Yes." Two internal medicine classmates nodded, "I just said this morning that I would draw blood for a new test here, but the parents kept yelling and didn't want to draw blood for this child."
"It's more difficult for children to have repeated blood tests," said classmate Pan Shihua.
Adults can't bear the repeated blood draws, let alone children. The parents' feelings are understandable. The problem is that if the family members don't cooperate, it will be difficult for medical staff to provide further treatment to the children.
When will a painless technology for drawing blood be invented? It would be great. I thought that the bone puncture in the afternoon would be much more painful than drawing blood. Several surgical students were a little worried about their internal medicine students, fearing that their families would die if they heard their children crying.
My internal medicine classmates would say that the worst thing is not this.
"The family members didn't know where they heard it from, and they have been asking all day long whether they need to find someone for a bone marrow transplant."
Nowadays, the news likes to use sensational things to make news reports to attract attention. Bone marrow transplantation itself involves medical ethics issues, which can easily arouse widespread discussion in society. It is easier to attract other people's attention than discussing chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Some family members watch too much news.
I thought bone marrow transplant was a life-saving medicine for leukemia. When I found out my family member was sick, I immediately chased the doctor to ask about it.
In fact, it is definitely not the case. As I said before, doctors must start with the most effective treatment policy when choosing a treatment plan. The life-saving medicine for leukemia is always chemotherapy first. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is more common in pediatrics and has many years of clinical experience.
With the accumulation of experience, a very effective chemotherapy regimen has been formed. If the disease is discovered and treated early, the five-year survival rate can reach a gratifying rate of over 80 to 90 percent.
Bone marrow transplantation is only used for relapse, and is not the first choice for treatment when doctors find this disease. Moreover, bone marrow transplantation is not a magic medicine. Relapse will also occur after bone marrow transplantation. It is a desperate choice after other clinical treatment options are ineffective.
Laymen don't know much about medicine, and the media loves to create news. They only use donors who can trigger social discussions to create topics. This really makes people involved in science very unhappy.
Anyone who knows something about medicine knows that medical donation must be done on a voluntary basis. Why? Medicine is science, and I don’t know how many of the new scientific medical results released every year will overturn some of the previous research results. It can only be said that they are research results.
If something is currently available, use it. If you want to say that I can guarantee that today's research results will always be correct, no one dares to do so. Human beings' understanding of the world is constantly deepening. This is the simplest truth.
Under such a premise, there are definitely gains and losses in treating a disease. Some patients are not willing to sacrifice other things about themselves in order to save their own lives.
