University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 130: Abdominal Pain for 17 Months Fever for 15 Months!


"Dr. Chen, here's my ID card."

The girl had watched some of Chen Mu's livestream before coming to the school hospital.

She was familiar with Chen Mu's consultation habits.

Almost as soon as Chen Mu spoke,

she had already taken out her ID and handed it to him.

Chen Mu took her ID card and scanned it with the machine.

On the computer,

the girl's personal information popped up.

Yan Zhi!

In Yan Zhi's school hospital file, there was already a medical record.

Chen Mu clicked into it.

A bit surprised, he said, "You've had pneumonia two years ago?"

Yan Zhi nodded.

Chen Mu looked at the not-so-detailed medical record.

He guessed that the last time Yan Zhi came to the school hospital was probably just to get a referral form.

The school hospital's records only showed that Yan Zhi had pneumonia two years ago.

However, there was no record of the specific type of pneumonia or the treatments undergone.

Seeing Yan Zhi nod, Chen Mu asked further, "Did you bring the medical records from your pneumonia back then?"

Searching her backpack for the records, Yan Zhi shook her head: "No..."

Chen Mu: "Can you explain the cause of the pneumonia back then, or what treatment you received?"

As Chan Mu spoke, he was creating a new medical record for Yan Zhi in the school hospital's system.

Yan Zhi tried to recall but then shook her head: "I don't remember the specific reason for the pneumonia, nor what kind it was. I only remember that the doctor back then mentioned some kind of anti... anti-something treatment..."

Chen Mu's fingers paused on the keyboard: "Antibiotic treatment?"

"Yes, yes, yes! That's it!"

Chen Mu nodded.

He filled in Yan Zhi's pneumonia history under the past medical history section.

At this moment,

Yan Zhi also pulled out numerous medical records and examination reports from her backpack.

To Chen Mu's surprise, Yan Zhi's records were tagged with many sticky notes.

It wasn't just the medical records.

Even the examination reports were neatly organized in stacks.

On top was a slip of paper clearly detailing the checkup times and listing all examination items.

Chen Mu picked up one of them, surprised to find not only the doctor's handwriting on it.

There were also some neat notes in colorful pens, obviously Yan Zhi's own handwritten notes on her medical records.

"Help! Sister, you're not even a medical student. Is it necessary to make such detailed notes for a hospital visit?"

"Seeing these notes, I instantly realized why someone could study for exams even while being hospitalized—so diligent!"

"This sister is seriously unparalleled in how thorough her notes are during a medical checkup!"

"Help! How do I delete this video from the entire internet? If my advisor sees this, I'm done for!"

"I've studied medicine for so many years, never thought I'd be outdone by a patient, it's despairing!"

"Looking at these medical records, I'm already worried. Can Dr. Chen handle this workload as a school doctor?"

"Honestly speaking, with such a thick history, even in our triple-A hospital, we might need the department chief to consult."

"For real, in our department, the last time we saw such a thick stack of reports and medical history, our chief had to call his 90-year-old mentor–it's no ordinary challenge..."

"..."

For Chen Mu, this was also the first time seeing such a set of records.

He briefly skimmed through the index Yan Zhi had written for herself.

Chen Mu started the consultation: "You have a history of fever for fifteen months. What was your highest recorded temperature?"

Yan Zhi recalled, "The highest was 38.9 degrees Celsius."

Chen Mu nodded: "I just glanced over your medical records. Without looking at your examination reports, you've been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis during previous hospital stays."

Yan Zhi nodded: "Yes."

Chen Mu: "Alright, Yan Zhi, we're officially starting the consultation now. I need to get some details of your medical history."

Chen Mu: "Have you had a history of diabetes, high blood pressure, or kidney disease?"

Yan Zhi shook her head: "No."

After recording, Chen Mu continued asking: "Any history of hepatitis?"

Yan Zhi shook her head.

Chen Mu: "Have you been in contact with tuberculosis patients, like pulmonary tuberculosis?"

Yan Zhi thought carefully and then shook her head again.

Chen Mu: "Have you suffered any major injuries, surgeries, or been given blood transfusions during previous treatments?"

Yan Zhi: "None of those."

Chen Mu nodded and said, "Okay. Do any of your immediate family members have ulcers like ulcerative colitis?"

Yan Zhi shook her head: "Previous doctors asked something similar, and I specifically asked my family—none of them have such a medical history."

After filling out the medical record, Chen Mu asked, "Aside from fever during those fifteen months, did you experience any other symptoms?"

Yan Zhi nodded: "My stomach's been hurting for seventeen months."

Chen Mu: "..."

Taking a deep breath, he continued to ask: "Anything else?"

Yan Zhi nodded: "I've also had bloody stool. The stool is sticky, and when it's serious, it's entirely bloody."

Chen Mu became concerned: "Is the bloody stool and abdominal pain intermittent, or daily?"

Yan Zhi: "Intermittent."

Chen Mu noted down on the computer.

"Intermittent mucus bloody stool."

After typing that, Chen Mu leaned over and called out: "Reporter Su, could you give me a hand?"

"On my way, Dr. Chen!" Bingbing, who had just sat down for less than two minutes, ran quickly to Chen Mu's side, waiting for instructions.

Chen Mu sighed: "Could you please check with Dr. Zheng on Si Hui's bronchial dilation test? The two tests need a fifteen-minute interval between them."

"His first test should be done. Spray some medication on Si Hui, and then wait fifteen minutes."

"Ask him to do some work at the school medical office during those fifteen minutes."

Bingbing nodded.

She ran out with a "click-clack" sound.

"Why do I feel like this is the most exhausting assignment my wife has ever done—not either helping Dr. Chen or on the way to help."

"With Hai City University school hospital's workload, even if you go in, you'll be running errands. There's no way the patients can all be seen."

"It reminds me of our school doctor, who worked for two years, then took out a loan to buy a house outside the campus, only to have their workload double, and in frustration, sold the house again..."

"Not to mention, I finally understand why Vice Principal Zheng was so reluctant to have Zheng Xin assist in the school hospital."

"Selfishly speaking, if it were my son, I'd probably resist too—facing such medical cases, at a triple-A hospital, they could call for an urgent consultation. But even with Zheng Xin as an external aid, the school hospital only has two doctors. What conclusions can be drawn... "

"Besides, he had already been to other hospitals and was hospitalized but hadn't fully recovered. If this gets complicated under Dr. Chen's care, the liability is not something minor prescriptions can cover."

"If Dr. Zheng indeed helps, he might have to share some responsibilities with Dr. Chen too."

"Just thinking about it gives me the chills. Didn't Dr. Chen say earlier that he didn't need Dr. Zheng's assistance, that he didn't need Dr. Zheng to take on responsibility for patients? So why call Dr. Zheng over?"

"With a medical history stack like that, there's hardly a doctor who wouldn't call for help..."

"This is truly not a type of case a school hospital should handle unless it's the Medical University's school hospital."
