University Doctor and His Fragile Patients

Chapter 80: Not Awake After the Seizure Ends? It's Probably a Brain Tumor Attack!


"Pfft! At a time like this, Dr. Chen is still concerned about adding school regulations!"

"Now I get it, all those absurd school rules at our school must come from having so many outrageous alumni..."

"Behind every absurd school rule, there's an even more absurd past!"

"Throwing fungal bed sheets into the bedding, that's really not wanting people to survive..."

"Is tossing bed sheets excessive? Not at all!"

"Is the school doctor idle? Dare to say a word about the school doctor being idle, and Dr. Chen will fight you at your home!"

"Even Dr. Chen is not confident that he can save Geng Yiqing's life, I'm really a bit nervous now."

"It's useless for us to be nervous now, we can only hope that Dr. Chen and others can meet up with 120* sooner!"

"..."

Su Bingbing silently distanced herself from the aggressive Chen Mu.

She took a closer look.

Su Bingbing exclaimed in surprise, "Dr. Chen, is her epileptic seizure about to end?"

Although Geng Yiqing was still having a seizure.

With the naked eye, one could see that the intensity of Geng Yiqing's seizure was lessening.

Yet Chen Mu still had an expression of tension on his face.

Su Bingbing didn't understand, "Dr. Chen, her seizure is almost over, shouldn't we be able to safely meet up with 120 then?"

Chen Mu shook his head seriously, "Not necessarily..."

"Huh?"

Su Bingbing looked at Geng Yiqing, but the question was directed at Chen Mu, "Why?"

Chen Mu pointed at Geng Yiqing's pupils.

"Under normal circumstances, as an epilepsy patient's intensity decreases, their consciousness should gradually return."

"But! Carefully observe Geng Yiqing's current state, is there any sign that she's about to regain consciousness?"

After hearing Chen Mu's explanation.

Su Bingbing hurriedly observed Geng Yiqing's condition.

After observing for a while, Su Bingbing's expression followed Chen Mu's and became much more serious, "Dr. Chen, I'm not sure if my observation is correct."

"I just feel that there are no signs of Geng Yiqing waking up at all."

"On the contrary, her overall consciousness seems even more blurred than before..."

Su Bingbing's voice grew increasingly softer.

She, unlike Chen Mu, was not a professional medical personnel.

She didn't know if what she was saying was right.

Chen Mu sighed lightly, "Your observation is correct..."

"And that's precisely the trickiest part."

"Just now, when she suddenly started vomiting heavily, I suspected that her brain tumor might already be acting up."

"If her seizure ends and Geng Yiqing's consciousness hasn't recovered, then her brain tumor may have reached a quite serious point."

Su Bingbing was shocked, "But... she's still so young..."

Chen Mu said calmly, "Go visit the hospital's inpatient department, there are many even younger than her."

"All we can do now is observe."

As he spoke.

Chen Mu turned on the power of the breathing machine.

Then he placed the mask aside and continued holding the Silver Needle, keeping a close watch on Geng Yiqing.

"The tumor in her brain is likely already pressing on nerves, invading other parts of the brain."

"Dr. Chen, I've communicated with Geng Yiqing's parents."

"They will later sign an electronic 'Informed Consent Form' and send it to my WeChat."

"If, once at the hospital, it's determined that Geng Yiqing's condition is severe enough to require immediate surgery, the student's parents agree for us at the school to sign the 'Surgical Informed Consent' on their behalf."

Du, who had been communicating with the student's parents.

After hanging up the phone.

Immediately turned to report to Chen Mu beside him.

"Dr. Chen, should I call the principal now?" Du looked at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu nodded, his gaze never leaving Geng Yiqing, "Just use the speakerphone, I'll help explain to the principal anything you can't clarify."

Just as Chen Mu finished speaking.

On the other end of the phone, the principal's alarmed voice came through, "Dr. Chen? Is it you again? What do you need to explain to me?"

"What happened again at school??"

"Poor principal, the one in the operating room hasn't even come out yet, and here's another one."

"Principal: Had I known it would be like this, I wouldn't have taken the job as principal!"

"If this situation continues, the principal might end up with PTSD from Dr. Chen!"

"What does this have to do with Dr. Chen? It's clearly the fragile college students' issue; they're just too frail. Doesn't the school consider giving the students some nutritious meals to adjust their health?"

"I think the idea of nutritious meals is credible; these students really need dietary therapy!"

"What's the use of dietary therapy, a few cases of drinks and a month's effort of a nutritionist is wasted!"

"Stop it, stop it, my nutritionist heart is already hurting!"

"..."

"Principal, I'm in Old He's school ambulance, taking a student who's having an epileptic seizure to the hospital."

Hearing Chen Mu's statement.

The principal on the other end instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, oh, you're talking about that Geng Yiqing!"

"Not long ago, her counselor had already reported to me, when you get to the hospital, make sure to have the child thoroughly examined."

"I remember epilepsy can be treated surgically, since it's discovered, an early suggestion should be made for the parents to treat the student."

Geng Yiqing convulsed again.

Chen Mu furrowed his brows even tighter.

Geng Yiqing's eyes looked quite off.

"Principal, the epilepsy might just be a complication of other diseases in this student!"

"I now suspect there's a tumor in her brain, and the situation is already quite dire."

On the other end of the phone.

The principal grew silent.

Chen Mu: "We've already contacted the student's parents; they've agreed for the school to sign the 'Surgical Informed Consent'."

Saying this.

Even the always composed Chen Mu paused in his speech.

After a few seconds of silence to organize his words, "Based on the current situation, this student's condition is most likely more severe than the student with intracranial hemorrhage from this morning."

"My advice is, perhaps you should have a vice principal or a director-level school staff wait at the operating room door of the intracranial hemorrhage student."

"And you personally stand by this brain tumor student."

Saying this.

Chen Mu paused again.

"This student's epileptic seizures have not yet completely ended, before they do, I cannot better assess the state of her brain tumor."

"But..."

On the other end, the principal's tone was more than a little anxious.

"But, at your level, Dr. Chen, you can assess it to some extent, right!"

"Tell me! To what extent is her condition critically dire now!"

"Wasn't it said earlier that her illness was epilepsy, how has it evolved so quickly into a brain tumor?"

Chen Mu hesitated for a moment.

He still replied truthfully: "From what we know at present, we cannot rule out the possibility that this student might die on the way to the hospital..."

Thump—

Hearing a sudden dull sound on the other end of the phone.

Chen Mu was a bit dumbfounded.

The next second.

He heard shouts from the other end of the phone.

"Nurse! Nurse!"

"A patient's family member has fainted here!"

"Hurry and call a doctor!"

*Note: "120" is the emergency medical services number in China, akin to 911 in the United States.
