Chapter 67: Everyone is the same
Zuo Li expressed deep sympathy and said, "I don't know about your mother's illness, and I don't know if your father insisted on using Chinese medicine to delay the condition." Maybe Western medicine can save it, but maybe it can't. The road of life is like this, some roads you look at are full of light, but the real walk is full of thorns. And what exactly is going on this road, only those who have walked it know. ”
Chen Tianming nodded: "That's right, you're right." It was because of my mother's death that I strengthened my determination to study medicine. I am determined to become a top doctor, treat diseases and save people, and prevent my mother's tragedy from repeating, just like what Lu Xun experienced back then. However, after I studied medicine, I re-examined my mother's medical records, and I realized that my mother's illness is also difficult to treat with Western medicine. Because it was already at an advanced stage when it was discovered, and it was pancreatic cancer, a cancer within a cancer. ”
"So I knew that my dad wasn't actually treating my mom at the time, and he knew there was no way. He just used Chinese medicine to condition her body, so that she could suffer less pain and go through life peacefully. In fact, it did, and my mom ended up walking relatively calmly. However, my deep-seated thoughts had taken control of my mind, and I thought it was my father's fault and the Chinese medicine practitioner. That's why I didn't have a good relationship with my dad for many years. But my dad never explained. No matter what I said about Chinese medicine, he just smiled wryly. Today is the first time he's refuting my arguments, maybe because you're there. ”
Zuo Li said again: "You should have changed your opinion on Chinese medicine a little now, right?" Otherwise, you wouldn't have told me that. A person who has no interest in Chinese medicine will not talk about topics that she is not interested in. ”
Chen Tianming nodded approvingly: "You are observant, it is true." In fact, after I studied medicine, I began to change my understanding of Chinese medicine, especially after studying for a doctorate, I found that Western medicine also has a lot of powerless diseases, while my father was able to cure some diseases that seemed to me to be very tricky. But I still think that, in general, Western medicine is much more advanced than Chinese medicine. As you said, Western medicine is the king's minister, and Chinese medicine is just an assistant. But ......"
Chen Tianming turned his head to look at Zuo Li: "It was you who made me further change my view of Chinese medicine, although you have not been here for a long time, but you have already set off a storm of Chinese medicine in our three hospitals." To be fair, the patients you have cured are not more and more amazing than other Western medicine doctors, and there are many doctors in Western medicine departments who have treated many incurable diseases, even terminal diseases, but they are not as eye-catching as you, mainly because the previous Chinese medicine was too weak, and you suddenly raised Chinese medicine to a very high level, so that many people can see the real strength of Chinese medicine. ”
Zuo Li shook his head: "It's not my personal credit, if Chinese medicine doesn't have an obvious and certain curative effect, no matter who uses it to treat diseases, it won't have an effect." Traditional Chinese medicine has been tested countless times over thousands of years, proving that its efficacy is clear. Of course, the level of doctors who use it is uneven, some are good and some are bad, the good ones can play a powerful role, and the bad ones may be fatal. ”
"Isn't it the same with Western medicine? Recently, there have been several major medical accidents, all of which are problems with Western medicine. There are problems such as doctors' sense of responsibility, the problem of mental mode imprisonment, and the limitations of testing equipment, all of which will affect the efficacy of Western medicine. The problem of efficacy is not only often faced by Chinese medicine, but also by Western medicine. ”
Chen Tianming looked at Zuo Li in a daze and fell into deep thought.
She had heard similar things before, including Zuo Li who had told her those things. But she always scoffed, thinking that Chinese medicine was making excuses. And her personal experience again and again has made her begin to look back and re-examine Chinese medicine, and no longer simply attribute it to the sophistry of Chinese medicine practitioners.
Once you calm down and look back at these problems, you will find that the truth is actually very simple, and what Zuo Li said is completely true, the problem is that he has never listened to it and has not thought about it seriously.
Chen Tianming finally nodded: "Maybe Chinese medicine is better than I imagined." I also know that for some chronic diseases, the efficacy of TCM is actually more solid and significant than that of Western medicine. ”
Zuo Li said: "Yes, your father is a world-famous old Chinese medicine doctor, and you have better conditions to examine the efficacy of Chinese medicine." ”
Zuo Li smiled: "In my heart, your medical skills are stronger than my father's, because you have systematically studied Western medicine, and you know what Western medicine is worth learning." My father didn't study Western medicine systematically, so sometimes he couldn't find the direction of his study. ”
"It's over."
Chen Tianming smiled, stood up, and put his hands in his pockets: "Go back, it's a little cold." ”
Zuo Li stood up and took off his jacket, and couldn't help but drape it on Chen Tianming's shoulders. Chen Tianming wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his lips, he stopped again, and just looked at him deeply.
……………………
After the Spring Festival, the spring flowers are blooming, and the weather is getting warmer day by day.
The number of patients who came to the TCM outpatient clinic began to increase, especially Zuo Li's outpatient clinic, and there were more than a dozen patients who saw a doctor every day. Unlike at the beginning, there were no two in the morning.
On this day, Zuo Li was seeing a doctor in the outpatient clinic when he heard someone calling him at the door, his voice was very rough, but full of respect: "Master! ”
Zuo Li turned his head to look, but it was a tall bull. The strong man who was once hit by Zuo Li's finger and collapsed on the ground foaming at the mouth.
Zuo Li frowned: "Come to see a doctor?" ”
"No, no, Master, I'm not here to see a doctor, I'm accompanying my second aunt to see a doctor."
On the side of the body of the Qiang Niu, which almost blocked the entire door, a thin middle-aged woman emerged from behind, with a smile on her face, and greeted warmly: "Doctor Zuo, my surname is Lu, and I am the second aunt of the Qiangniu." He pulled a young woman behind him and said, "This is my daughter, I brought her to see you, and she has already called our number." ”
Zuo Li glanced at it, and the woman saw that she was about twenty years old, with a sickly look on her face and was not in good spirits.
They walked in and said to Aunt Lu: "Second aunt, Doctor Zuo is my master, his martial arts are very harmful, he can point to acupoints, it is estimated that he can do this kung fu in the world, and he knocked me down with one finger." ”
"yes, I've heard you talk about his skills. It's also because you heard you say that your ears are calloused, and when you meet your sister-in-law, I beg you to bring it to Dr. Zuo for treatment. ”
Zuo Li didn't bother to distinguish the topic of points that had been explained several times, and was about to ask about the disease, but the strong cow said first: "Master, I didn't come to pay you New Year's greetings during the New Year, I'm really sorry." I can't help it, I sent my father's ashes back to my hometown, and then spent the New Year in my hometown, busy with some chores, and only then did I have time to come to you after I was done. The sick is my cousin, her name is Xiaomei, she is not feeling well, it should be a small problem, Master, you can cure it with a little finger, hehe. ”
