Chapter 875 Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain
For young people who pretend to have leg problems, the real disease problem lies in the brain, or the brainstem, which is considered a restricted area for surgery.
The reason why the brainstem is called a restricted area for surgery is that it is weak, small and delicate.
The brainstem is only a dozen centimeters long and is divided into the medulla oblongata, pons, and brainstem. It is an important organ that controls the respiratory center.
It concentrates many nerve nuclei, conductive bundles, reticular structures, etc. within a small area.
If you are not careful during brainstem surgery, the patient may stop breathing and heartbeat, become paralyzed for life, or lie in the ICU for a long time, etc.
The young man got malignant glioblastoma with infiltrative growth.
His tumor and brainstem tissue have been intertwined, forming a state where you are in me and I am in you.
In the case of young people, the tumor cannot be completely removed unless the brain stem is also removed.
The operation is very difficult to remove only the main part of the glioma, which can easily cause damage to important structures in the brainstem, result in high surgical disability and high mortality, and lead to a seriously poor prognosis.
Even if the partial resection operation is successful, given the young man's condition, it will only be delayed for a few months and is of little significance.
Before the young man and his parents came to see Yu Zhiming today, the young man's girlfriend found Yu Zhiming first, informed the young man of the actual situation, and asked to keep it secret.
Yu Zhiming agreed.
To be precise, he didn't lie to the young man's parents either.
Yu Zhiming selectively did not tell the young man's parents that their son had brain disease, but told them truthfully that there was nothing wrong with the young man's legs...
"Dr. Yu, by working with brain surgery experts, you can successfully treat a difficult skull base tumor. In his case, don't you have any other treatment options?"
Facing the inquiry from his beautiful young girlfriend, Yu Zhiming shook his head and told the truth: "I can only play a supporting role in brain surgery. If experienced neurosurgery experts can't do anything, I am even more incompetent."
The young man was very free and easy. He smiled softly and said, "Leilei, let's not embarrass Doctor Yu."
He looked at Yu Zhiming and asked: "Doctor Yu, according to your judgment, how much time do I have?"
Ever since he completed the physical examination on the young man at around ten o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiming has been deducing this problem in his mind.
He met the young man's gaze and said slowly: "According to my calculations, in about a month, you will start to have some mild symptoms of headache, dizziness, and nausea."
"After four or five months, symptoms such as double vision, crooked mouth, hoarseness, facial numbness, and limb spasms will appear one after another."
The young man nodded gently and said, "In other words, in four months, I won't be able to hide it anymore."
"It seems that in the third month, I will have a big fight with my parents and run away from home."
"I hope then..."
The young man said with a hopeful look on his face: "The good news about my mother's pregnancy is a good excuse for me to leave home and relax."
"That way, they won't become suspicious."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but persuade him: "I think it's better for you to tell the truth to your parents."
"If they find out afterwards, they will definitely want to accompany you through the most difficult time."
The young man shook his head gently and said, "I don't want to be like this."
"Ever since I was a child, I have never been worry-free, and my parents have been worried about me."
"Just when I came to my senses and had some ability to repay them, God played such a huge joke on me and gave me this damn terminal disease."
The young man said bitterly: "I don't want my parents to watch me become seriously ill and die day by day in pain and suffering. This is the only thing I can do for them now."
"When they know the news of my death, even if it is very painful, it will only be a short-term pain."
"Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain."
Yu Zhiming saw that he had made up his mind and stopped trying to persuade him.
The young man chuckled again and said: "I have always had a dream to be an actor. After graduating from college, I ignored my parents' objections and went to work as a dancer."
"During filming, I was accidentally hit on the head. I fainted on the spot. I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with a damn brain tumor."
"Now, I have to play a drama with my parents with my life, but I don't know how many points my parents will give me in the end."
The young man turned his attention to Yu Zhiming again and said with a smile: "Doctor Yu, I want to ask you something."
"you say!"
The young man said softly: "At my parents' age, it's probably not that easy to conceive a second child."
"Doctor Yu, please give me more help."
Yu Zhiming nodded and said: "I have promised them that during IVF, I will perform embryo transfer for them..."
After sending the young man and his girlfriend away, Yu Zhiming also threw himself into the afternoon's work.
At nearly four o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming assisted in completing the cancerous tissue removal surgery for the wife of the first-class firefighter.
On the way back to Zhenlou, he received a call from Gu Qingran.
"Zhi Ming, are you really not coming to Ning'an tonight? This is a good opportunity to show off in front of the chief."
Since the Chief's physical recovery was far faster than expected, Yu Zhiming decided to give him CAR-T treatment tonight.
Yu Zhiming hesitated for a moment and replied: "Forget it, I won't go. It's not good to act too deliberately."
"As far as my current situation is concerned, I'm not short of money. It's easy to make money. There's no need to run around just to get gifts from others."
"It's such a loss of points. It's not in line with our status as a famous doctor."
Gu Qingran laughed and said teasingly: "That's right. Today is different from the past. Famous doctor Yu cannot act too tacky. He must be reserved and improve his style."
Yu Zhiming snorted softly and said, "If you don't have anything else to do, I'll hang up. I'm busy."
"Something's happening, something's happening!"
Gu Qingran hurriedly said during the call: "Brother Sheik asked me to express my gratitude to you. He said that his son suffered a cardiac arrest during an exercise limit test at a sports medical center in Germany."
"The chief's brother said that you saved his son's life. If there was a cardiac arrest on the court, his son might not be able to be saved."

Yu Zhiming smiled and warned: "The premise is that the chief can successfully survive tonight's CAR-T treatment."
"Although the success rate so far is pretty good, we cannot take it lightly. The chief may fail."
Gu Qingran replied in a deep voice: "Zhiming, don't worry, we have made careful preparations."
"This is a golden sign to open up the medical market of wealthy people in the Middle East. Unexpected incidents will not happen."
"Zhiming, just wait for the good news..."
Yu Zhiming returned to the third underground floor of Zhizhen Tower and found Ding Ye waiting for him.
"It's not yet the breast cancer screening time for volunteers, so why don't you come here early?"
Ding Yeyu asked anxiously: "I heard that you are looking for suitable leukemia patients to fund?"
Yu Zhiming asked back: "Do you have a suitable candidate to recommend?"
Ding Ye nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes."
"A fourteen-year-old girl in the community where my aunt lives was diagnosed with leukemia. The girl has an eleven-year-old brother, and the match was successful, but she has been delayed in getting a bone marrow transplant."
Yu Zhiming questioned: "Since the matching is successful, why are you still dragging it out?"
"Even if the economy is too difficult, it wouldn't be too difficult for the society to ask for help and raise one to two hundred thousand for treatment, right?"
Ding Ye took a breath and said angrily: "The reason why I have been putting off the transplant surgery is because of the messy relationship and excuses."
After a pause, Ding Ye explained angrily: "The mother took the girl and remarried, while the girl's biological brother stayed with her ex-husband's family."
"The mother and her second husband gave birth to another son."
"After the girl was diagnosed with leukemia, her stepfather wanted the girl's biological father to provide the money."
"The father's family said that it is enough if the son's bone marrow can be extracted, and the mother must pay for the treatment. Now the two families are quarreling, and the girl's treatment has been delayed."
Yu Zhiming felt a little incredible and asked: "In this situation, they still quarrel and shirk the blame? How do they become parents?"
“Didn’t the local government get involved?”
Ding Ye sighed softly: "I intervened. My aunt works in the neighborhood committee and is one of the mediators."
"My aunt told me that she was vaguely aware that the two families were quarreling on purpose to delay the girl's illness so that she would die."
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but sigh.
I have worked in a hospital for several years, and I have heard and seen things where people and gods are outraged.
It is possible that things like this are not willing to pay for treatment for your daughter.
After all, a bone marrow transplant requires at least 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, and long-term medication is required for recovery and recovery.
For ordinary families, this is a large towing oil bottle.
Yu Zhiming frowned and said: "Dr. Ding, given the family situation like this, even if we fund the surgery, if we don't get careful care from the family in the follow-up, the consequences will be hard to predict."
Ding Ye bit his lip and said, "Doctor Yu, after all, the life of a young girl is in her prime. It's not good to just watch her wither, right?"
"Take one step first and see one step at a time."
Ding Ye further advised: "Generally speaking, the more a person has a father who is not close to his mother and does not love him, the harder his life will be, and his life will be stronger than that of ordinary people."
this……
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said bluntly: "Dr. Ding, the fund supporting this leukemia patient is not my charity fund, but a cousin of Qing Ning's."
"She did something wrong last year and was sentenced to two years of probation. She wanted to do good things by doing good things. You understand, right?"
Ding Ye said with a smile on his face: "I understand, I understand!"
"Dr. Yu, this leukemia patient couldn't be more suitable. As long as an internet celebrity exposes the blame game between the two families, it will most likely become a hot topic on the Internet."
"You, my cousin, have the reputation you want."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said: "If it is exposed, the two families will probably be exposed online."
Ding Ye said with disgust: "You deserve it."
"If you dare to do it, you must dare to admit it. If your daughter does these things at a critical moment of life and death, she should be raped online..."
