"Doctor Zhang, it's such a hot day. Even if you drink, my study tasks are quite heavy."
Li Duanyang knew that Zhang Dake was definitely not just inviting him to drink, so he declined with a smile.
Give this old guy a hard time first and let him play tricks on you.
"Hi, Xiao Li, ah no, Dr. Li, Dr. Li, could you please come here some time? I encountered a troublesome disease here and you are not interested in learning about it?" Zhang Dake quickly said the truth through the microphone.
That's pretty much it.
Li Duanyang smiled and said: "What disease has troubled you? Okay, I'll go and see it right away and send me a position."
"I won't tell you the location. So, I'll call Nini and let that girl know that she can find her here. You go pick her up and then come back to my place."
"Okay." Li Duanyang hung up the phone after saying that, and then called Qin Linlin. I wonder if she has the time and interest to follow him to see him.
After hearing this, Qin Linlin immediately asked him to pick her up from Jiaotong University.
Li Duanyang took Gao Xiaozhu to drive. As soon as he walked to the car, he met Guo Hongxia coming in from outside holding an umbrella.
"Where are you going, junior brother?" Guo Hongxia asked.
"Go to your aunt's place. Doctor Zhang said he encountered a strange disease. Are you interested in finding out more about it?"
"Ah? My aunt's place?"
"I went there to pick up Li Nini. Li Nini can find the patient's home."
"Oh," Guo Hongxia hesitated, called Professor Hao and asked for a leave, and then set off with Li Duanyang.
Passing by Jiaotong University, I picked up Qin Linlin and the group went straight to Li Nini's house.
Li Nini was both excited and a little embarrassed about the arrival of Li Duanyang and the others. Her house was very clean, but it was true that some of her family members had no walls and even the TV was a small black and white TV.
Such families are really rare nowadays.
"Ah, Doctor Li, please sit down. I don't know what you want to eat, so I bought a watermelon."
Li Nini looked for a place to sit with her hands in embarrassment, but she did not expect so many people to come. There were not enough stools at the moment, and there were only two stools at home.
"There's no need to find a seat, just eat the watermelon standing up." Qin Linlin stopped Li Nini and took the initiative to find a kitchen knife to cut the watermelon and share it with everyone.
"Nini, has your brother gone to school?" Guo Hongxia asked.
"Ah, Li Ke has gone to school." Li Nini said a little silly.
She has not yet recovered from the embarrassment of letting Li Duanyang and the others see a home like hers and her brother's.
"Don't be embarrassed. My family used to live in cave dwellings. This time Linlin and Xiaozhu came to my house and I took them to see the cave dwellings that my family used to live in." Li Duanyang took a piece of watermelon and gnawed on it, "Let's go to the rental house."
Have the affairs of the land been done?"
"It's done." Li Nini nodded hurriedly, with a look of pity on her face. This time she was busy renting out, and even the young crops were rented out. It was really a loss.
Gao Xiaozhu ate a mouthful of watermelon and rolled his eyes as he looked at Sister Nini's home, thinking that it felt inferior to her and her grandfather's home. Sister Nini and little brother Keke were really pitiful~~
After eating the watermelon, the group went to Aunt Guo Hongxia’s house to say hello, and then set off again.
Li Nini was sitting in the passenger seat leading the way, which made her feel embarrassed again.
Li Duanyang didn't say anything more to her. Her situation would naturally change slowly as her situation improved and she saw more of the world.
"Nini, what's going on with that patient? Why can't even Dr. Zhang take it off?"
On the way, Guo Hongxia asked Li Nini.
Li Nini also knew a little about the patient's condition, so she introduced the patient's condition to everyone intermittently.
In fact, she is an insomnia patient. However, she has had a history of insomnia for four years. She has been to many doctors but none of them are good. Zhang Dake also failed in the face of her condition.
The patient's name is Hu Lizhen. She is 43 years old. She had a fight with her mother-in-law and her husband during confinement four years ago. She was so angry that she couldn't sleep all night. Then she got this disease. At the beginning, she could still sleep for three or four days after taking sleeping pills.
After a few hours, the medicine didn't work anymore. I went to several hospitals and saw many doctors, but nothing worked, and the effect was very poor.
In the past two years, my condition has only worsened. I sleep very little every night, and sometimes I can't even sleep at all.
In order to fall asleep, the patient tried every means. He went out to work in the fields every night for a period of time, hoping to fall asleep due to fatigue, but it still had no effect.
Now my health is getting worse and worse, my spirit is listless, and I have wanted to drink poison and die several times.
Just such a case, everyone fell silent after hearing it.
Insomnia is a common cognitive disease, and it is indeed rare for it to reach this patient's level.
Sleep is the best way for a person to maintain his or her mental and physical state. It can be said to be better than all supplements and exercise. If a person suffers from insomnia for a long time, the impact on his physical and mental state can be imagined!
"Junior brother, what do you think is the cause of the patient's disease?"
There was silence in the car for a while, then Guo Hongxia asked.
"If insomnia can reach this level and last for such a long time, it can only be caused by a disturbed mind, a lack of energy, and a restless mind." Li Duanyang narrowed his eyes and said, "What is the specific cause? It's hard to say without seeing the patient.
, but the probability of it being caused by stubborn phlegm is higher. Since ancient times, stubborn phlegm has caused many strange diseases."
Qin Linlin murmured in her heart after hearing this, but she understood that such severe insomnia could not be cured by Western medicine's neurasthenia treatment methods, so the only way to see whether it could be cured by Chinese medicine would be to see if it could be cured.
Have the final say.
In recent years, Western medicine has also been developing the gut-brain theory, which is gradually getting closer to the traditional Chinese medicine theory that the five internal organs hide the five gods.
When it comes to medicine, it’s hard to say that modern humans are more developed than ancient humans. Aren’t there a lot of archaeologists currently exploring the existence of prehistoric civilizations?
Perhaps, prehistoric civilization far surpassed modern civilization?
The ancient people were closer to prehistoric civilization...
"Brother, do people really have souls?"
Gao Xiaozhu sat between Qin Linlin and Guo Hongxia and listened for a long time, then asked Li Duanyang.
"These are just some terms used by traditional Chinese medicine to treat diseases. It does not mean that people really have souls." Li Duanyang coughed and explained to Gao Xiaozhu.
Gao Xiaozhu is still too young to be exposed to these ideas.
When we arrived at the patient's home, Zhang Dake was waiting there.
There were three people sitting on the sofa in the living room at home. A fat woman in her forties must be the patient. Her face was dull, her eyes were swollen, and her eyes were bloodshot. She was laughing and crying at Zhang Dake.
Yeah, it's obvious at first glance that he's mentally a bit abnormal.
There was a man sitting silently beside her, who must be the woman's husband.
Seeing Li Duanyang and his entourage walk in, the woman was stunned for a moment, stopped crying and laughing, but did not say hello to Li Duanyang and the others, and sat aside blankly with a straight face.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Li Duanyang and his party sat down. Zhang Dake leaned into Li Duanyang's ear and whispered: "Wendan Decoction, Suanzaoren Decoction, Baizi Yangxin Pills, and Guipi Decoction have all been used, but they have no effect.
.Others have also used some other medicines, but they didn’t work.”
Li Duanyang nodded and said to the woman's husband Wang Xin: "Let me see what other medicines other doctors have prescribed."
Wang Xin stood up and went to the bedroom to get a stack of prescriptions and handed them to Li Duanyang. Li Duanyang flipped through them casually, but his mind was already focused on the patient Hu Lizhen.
Seeing that those prescriptions were just a cover-up, he was fully aware of Hu Lizhen at this time, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to calm down Hu Lizhen and prepare for the following diagnosis and treatment.
