Xiao Chen saw that the nanny had cooked two bowls of porridge. Xiao Chen personally carried Leng Xue half-carrying her and then fed her. Leng Xue's condition seemed much better.
After all, judging from her condition, she has been in a coma for a long time. Her body needs something to consume, and it will definitely not work if she doesn't have something to fill her stomach.
Looking at Leng Xue's look, Xiao Chen didn't know what to say.
When Xiao Chen came out of Leng Xue's room and went outside, he looked at the nanny and said, "Auntie, I just bothered you."
"It's okay, Doctor Xiao."
The nanny aunt felt that Xiao Chen was too kind to tenants like Miss Wang and others. It was not like waiting for ordinary tenants, but more like waiting for his girlfriend.
The nanny aunt felt that way, but she didn't know if it was true.
Now Xiao Chen didn't stay anymore. He got in the car and drove back to the community near Tang's Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, and then back to Tang's Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.
Xiao Chen had just returned to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic. In addition to seeing Mr. Tang, he also saw two middle-aged couples and an old man there. Something seemed wrong about the old man.
"Xiaochen, they are here to find you." Mr. Tang said.
"What's wrong with this old gentleman?"
"He, my father-in-law is possessed by a ghost and is acting crazy all day long!" The middle-aged woman spoke the local Binhai City language, but Xiao Chen could understand it.
However, Xiao Chen felt strange as soon as he heard what ghost was taking possession of him.
There are so many such things in this world.
When Xiao Chen saw something was wrong with the old man and examined him, Xiao Chen asked: "Didn't you take him to see other doctors?"
"I've seen it, and many doctors said he has madness."
"This is not madness, nor is it a ghost. This is obviously dementia, Alzheimer's disease."
Alzheimer's disease?
How can this be?
I'm afraid even Mr. Tang wouldn't believe it.
Although there are many patients with Alzheimer's disease now, the patient in front of me is obviously very similar to mania. He is emotionally agitated and has hallucinations. He often runs outside alone and needs his family to look for him, even when no one is watching.
He still wants to jump off the building, his head and neck shake, he talks to himself, and he easily bursts into tears.
These symptoms are very similar to madness, and in fact, to what Western medicine calls mental illness.
Of course, if one goes by what the folk goddesses say, this old man is possessed by a ghost, and has been for a long time.
"Xiao Chen, you are definitely suffering from Alzheimer's disease." Mr. Tang just knew that Xiao Chen was the easiest to cure such difficult and complicated diseases, or unknown diseases, so he was waiting for Xiao Chen to come back for treatment.
Unexpectedly, this old gentleman actually has Alzheimer's disease.
"Mr. Tang, I can tell at a glance that his eyes are completely different from the eyes of those suffering from madness, or those suffering from ghosts."
After entering Mr. Tang's study, Xiao Chen, with the help of the middle-aged couple, checked the old man's pulse and determined that the old man was suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
Moreover, depending on the situation of the other party, it was only six months ago at most.
In Western medicine, Alzheimer's disease is called Alzheimer's disease. It is a neurodegenerative disease with an insidious onset and progressive development.
Clinically, it is characterized by comprehensive dementia manifestations such as memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, agnosia, impairment of visuospatial skills, executive dysfunction, and changes in personality and behavior. The cause is still unknown. Those with onset before the age of 65 are called Alzheimer's dementia;
People who develop the disease after the age of 65 are called Alzheimer's dementia.
In traditional Chinese medicine, dementia is a type of mental disease caused by insufficient Qi and blood, depletion of the marrow sea, blockage of phlegm and blood stasis, and failure to clear the orifices. It is characterized by abnormal mental state, depression, irritability, and confused speech.
It looks very similar to epilepsy, but in fact, the causes are fundamentally different.
Moreover, madness basically affects everyone from children to the elderly, while dementia, or Alzheimer's disease, basically affects the elderly.
The distinction is like this in terms of age, but Xiao Chen can tell it simply from a person's eyes.
The main reason why these elderly people are prone to Alzheimer's disease is because with age, all aspects of their functions decline rapidly. Moreover, the elderly are susceptible to some stimuli, and it is normal for Alzheimer's disease to develop over time.
After watching Xiao Chen read it to his father, the middle-aged man hurriedly asked: "Doctor Xiao, how is my dad's condition? Can he return to normal?"
Now with a father like that, sons must be worried. On the one hand, they have to work, but with a father like that, one person must take care of him.
If you hire a nanny to take care of you, it will cost you at least several thousand a month, and the nanny may not be a trustworthy one.
Therefore, it would be best if his father could return to normal and be able to take care of himself in all aspects of life.
"Has he had any other stimulation before? For example, any stimulation with his family, or did you not agree to his promise?"
"No, not at all. My dad used to be an old factory worker. After retirement, he has always been normal. Our family has never had any quarrels with him. Anyway, everything in the family goes along with him."
"Then his condition is caused by liver and kidney deficiency, blood stasis and internal obstruction, and phlegm and fire disturbing the heart. I will prescribe him a prescription to treat it. If it still doesn't work, I will give him acupuncture treatment."
Xiao Chen took some paper from Mr. Tang's desk and gave him a prescription for clothes conditioning.
After the middle-aged couple took the prescription, they thanked Xiao Chen and supported the old man to leave. Xiao Chen said, "It's really not easy."
There is no doubt that the family is most afraid of having a patient, especially one who cannot take care of himself. At first, it may be nothing, but over time, even his own son may not be able to bear it.
As the saying goes, there is no filial son before a long-term illness. This is what it means.
After the three people left, Mr. Tang looked at him and said, "I made a mistake just now. When the middle-aged couple came, they said that the old man was possessed by a ghost, so I thought it was madness. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Alzheimer's disease.
"
It may be that the old man suddenly contracted the disease, and the middle-aged couple believed more in that, so they went to see the goddess, who said it was a ghost, but there was no effect.
Of course, Xiao Chen knew that some patients were affected by unclean things. For example, many patients treated by Xiao Chen before were related to this.
However, the patient just now did have Alzheimer's disease.
"As you get older, your brain begins to fail in all aspects, so this kind of problem occurs. However, under normal circumstances, it should be rare."
In Xiaojiacun, Xiao Chen had never heard of Alzheimer's disease. Those elderly people were in their nineties or even a hundred years old and were very clear-headed. However, when they came to a big city like Binhai City, there should be many patients of this type. (
