Chapter 104: Witnessing the Miracle (Part II)
"Yes, but it is difficult, first take a week of Chinese medicine, combined with acupuncture treatment once every three days, and see the effect after a week, I can be sure that if the effect is ideal, it can be cured in a month, if it is not ideal, it may take two to three months, no matter what, as long as you believe me, I will cure you completely." Jin Chengxin was full of heart, although this kind of patient was the first time he had encountered it, he remembered that he had a lot of experience in the treatment of this kind of kidney disease, and he believed that there would be no problems, so he packed the ticket and said.
"That's great, as long as it can be cured, it doesn't matter if it's three months or four months, Doctor Jin, you prescribe medicine for me, I'll take it when I go back, as long as it can cure my illness, I'll send you a pennant, whatever." The middle-aged man stood up excitedly, his eyes lit up, and at this time, he asked him to kowtow to Jin Cheng, and he knelt down without hesitation.
Nephrotic syndrome, which is recognized as a difficult problem in the medical community, varies greatly according to the type of pathology, but the final outcome will almost always develop into uremia, which is just a matter of age, most of the patients who are effective in glucocorticoid therapy survive more than ten years, and those who are ineffective will enter the stage of renal failure within five years or even less.
As the course of the disease progresses, dialysis becomes more and more frequent and intensive, from once a week to twice a week, or even three times, and finally only a kidney transplant. However, kidney transplantation is not something that ordinary rural families can afford, and it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses, and it is difficult to find, and the high cost of taking anti-rejection drugs for a long time after surgery is daunting.
Although the kidney transplant technology has matured and has been carried out in tertiary hospitals in China, more kidney disease patients cannot afford to pay the cost and can only rely on dialysis to maintain it, struggling on the line of death. This is still due to the fact that after the implementation of the NCMS policy, dialysis patients can be reimbursed, so that patients can survive, otherwise the cost of dialysis alone will cost thousands of yuan per month, and many families cannot afford it.
Now that there is hope that this intractable disease can be completely cured, even calm patients will be excited when they hear about it, and it is not surprising to look at the appearance of the middle-aged man.
Jin Cheng gave the prescription to the patient, charged him 300 yuan for a week's treatment, including the cost of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, and then asked him to go to the pharmacy to find Lao Wang to grab the medicine.
Today, the average daily turnover of the clinic is about 4,000, which is already a very terrifying achievement for the village-level clinic, which can be equivalent to the benefits of a township clinic with about 15 employees.
Among the more than 20 township health centers in Jichang County, Xinqiao Town Health Center ranks in the upper middle and upper class in terms of business income, with more than 40 employees and a daily turnover of about 10,000 yuan.
Jin Cheng returned all the fees for traditional Chinese medicine to Yao Luquan, who collected the herbs and processed the medicinal materials, and he only kept the hard money for acupuncture and massage. Now the herb collection team has expanded to ten people, they go up the mountain at seven o'clock in the morning every day, and do not come back until dark, with a per capita daily income of three hundred (special medicinal materials are counted separately, such as: wild ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, etc.), three people in the medicinal material processing group, with a per capita daily income of two hundred, plus the salary paid to Lao Wang, Jin Cheng's income and expenditure are basically balanced, and this loose organization with him as the core has entered a stage of benign development.
Regardless of whether the medicine collection group is in the processing group or the processing group, they are all grateful to Jin Cheng, and in their minds, Tianwang Laozi is not as important as Dr. Jin. The reason is obvious, the salary is settled in three days, and the income of three days can be worth the monthly income of the entire family in the past.
The medicine picker went up the mountain in advance, and Yao Jiazhe didn't have time to come to the clinic as an apprentice, at a young age, he followed a group of adults over the mountains and mountains all day long, coming and going in the wind and rain, never shouting tired, and it was distressing to watch. Jin Cheng didn't stop him, he still attached great importance to this named disciple, and letting him collect medicine was regarded as a kind of exercise, and it had nothing to do with money. Suffering more when you are young is an encouragement to your heart and is very good for your future growth.
"Old man, sit down, you have an acute lumbar sprain, I will give you acupuncture immediately, and it will stop hurting soon." Jin Cheng said as he lifted the clothes on the old man's back.
"Oops...... Doctor Jin, my waist flashed yesterday, and now I can't move at all, is it badly injured? "The old man was in his late teens, with gray hair and a painful expression, and he came to the clinic with the help of his family.
"It's not a big problem, you bear with it first," Jin Cheng shot quickly, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight silver needles had been pierced, twisted, inserted, and channeled with true qi, and after five minutes, the needles were raised.
"Hey, it doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt at all, the 'little miracle doctor' is too godly!" The old man straightened up, twisted his waist slightly, and exclaimed in surprise.
This old man lives in the west of the village, surnamed Wu, and it was his son and daughter-in-law who helped him to come to the clinic, all of whom were acquaintances, otherwise this situation was like a 'trust' found by Jin Cheng, and Ai Manping had such a ridiculous idea. However, she was a person who respected the facts, and soon this idea was put behind her.
Before ten o'clock in the morning, Jin Cheng successfully finished the day's diagnosis and treatment work, with a total of more than 30 outpatients, a small part of which had to be treated with acupuncture and massage, and his work efficiency was already very high.
"I'm really sorry, Auntie and Xiaoling, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Jin Cheng came to the back bedroom and said to Ai Manping's mother and daughter.
"It's okay, we are also energetic and energetic when we watch from the sidelines, amazing, and really deserve the title of 'Little Divine Doctor', you are too condescending to stay in a small mountain village with such medical skills, have you ever thought about going out?" After more than an hour of observation, Ai Manping's impression of Jin Cheng has changed greatly, and the evaluation she gave in her heart is four words: the future is immeasurable.
"Of course, I'm just a passer-by in this small mountain village, but I won't leave for the time being, I've only been here for more than two months, and if nothing else, I'll stay here for a full year, and I won't leave until I get my license as a licensed assistant physician." Jin Cheng replied with a smile.
Ai Manping nodded, thinking: A year later, Xiaoling has just graduated, and it is not too late to think about where to go, it is best for Jin Cheng and Xiaoling to go to the county seat to develop. She didn't realize that subtly, she had accepted Jin Cheng as her son-in-law and planned a blueprint for their future.
"Jin Cheng, is the time up, my head is itching to death." Lan Xiaoling had long been impatient, so she threw away her hat at this time, revealing her head wrapped in plastic wrap, and said angrily.
"Don't worry, I'll see the time...... Ten minutes away, we go to the back mountain, where there is a small stream, the water is very clear, just enough to wash your hair. Jin Cheng said with a smiling face, he also felt that Lan Xiaoling was a little strange today, but he didn't care.
"Alright then, you lead the way, Mom, let's go out for a walk." Lan Xiaoling said.
