Therefore, Dr. Zuo should mainly rely on accurate pulse cutting, plus he had read the medical records a month ago, and compared with his memories, he was able to accurately say his main symptoms, which is really amazing. Based on this alone, the old workers immediately placed high hopes on Zuo Li.

The old worker said eagerly: "Doctor Zuo." I've been hospitalized for nearly three months, and I can't go to work. Because I was short of breath when I was tired, my chest tightened and I coughed, and I couldn't keep working. But if I don't go to work, my money is a lot less. I've heard that this disease will get worse and worse in the future, but I can't die! My family can all count on me to be fed! Please take a good look at it for me and think of a way. I've heard that Chinese medicine is amazing, and you must have a way to cure my disease, right? ”

Zuo Li shook his head and said, "There is no absolute, I can only do my best." Because medical treatment varies greatly from person to person, you may not be able to cure the same disease if someone else can cure it. I will treat you, but it may take some luck to see how well the treatment works, and of course, it depends on your confidence in Chinese medicine. If you don't have confidence in Chinese medicine, you can't cure your disease if you fish for three days and dry your nets for two days. Because your heart failure and bronchial tubes are both chronic diseases, chronic diseases are not so easy to treat. ”

"So, if you think about it now, if you want me to be treated, you must follow my doctor's instructions from beginning to end, and insist on taking medication without interruption. Otherwise, it is better not to let me be cured from now on, lest everyone be unhappy when I get it. ”

The old worker blushed. He covered his chest with his hands and said, "Doctor Zuo, to be honest, I didn't believe in Chinese medicine before, but you taught me a lesson and made me realize that Chinese medicine with skills is really powerful." From now on, I sincerely believe in Chinese medicine! I will definitely listen to you, take the medicine according to your request, and I will definitely not give up halfway like last time. ”

Zuo Li nodded: "Since that's the case, then I'll treat you." In fact, if you continue to take medication, your disease can be cured slowly. The effect of TCM in the treatment of this chronic disease is still relatively significant, even if it cannot completely cure your heart failure, it will control and reduce the symptoms of your heart failure and emphysema, so that you can work normally. Because from the perspective of your condition, it is not easy to completely cure your heart failure, but it is possible to improve the condition. I'll tell you about this. ”

The old worker nodded heavily and said, "I understand, Western medicine has not cured it for so long, and I know that my disease is not easy to treat." As long as TCM can improve my symptoms and allow me to return to work, I will be satisfied, thank you! ”

Zuo Li also said: "Traditional Chinese medicine does not treat diseases according to the names of Western medicine such as chronic heart failure, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema, but focuses on syndrome differentiation. Just now, I diagnosed your pulse and tongue, and found that your tongue coating is yellow and greasy, your tongue is fat, your pulse is small and slippery, your phlegm and stasis obstruct qi, your qi and yin are injured, and your lungs and heart are sick. I'll give you a prescription based on your dialectics. ”

"Okay, okay!" The old worker was very impressed, "I have seen Chinese medicine since I was a child, and I remember that when I was a child, you were like this when I saw a doctor." But now, Chinese medicine is also an infusion injection and medicine, and I think it is no different from Western medicine. Unexpectedly, seeing a doctor with you today seems to be back to the feeling when I was a child when I saw Chinese medicine, and I think this is the real Chinese medicine. ”

Zuo Li smiled and nodded, "I will send the prescription to you Director Chen, you go back and tell her about it, and I will tell her too." I will come back for a follow-up appointment after about a week. ”

"Okay, thanks."

The old worker returned to the chest department and told Chen Tianming his thoughts.

After hearing the old worker say that he wanted a combination of traditional Chinese medicine, Chen Tianming frowned and said, "Do you think the addition of traditional Chinese medicine has an effect on your disease?" ”

"I wanted to try it because I had been hospitalized for almost three months and it didn't work, so I was anxious. Director Chen, if you let me try, I won't give up halfway. I consulted Dr. Zuo, and he said that the treatment time period for this chronic disease will be relatively long, so you should be patient. Last time, I just didn't have the patience, and after using it for a few days, I blamed the Chinese medicine for not having an effect, and I didn't think about what my disease was. ”

Chen Tianming nodded: "Okay, any patient has the right to choose their own treatment plan." Since Dr. Zuo has also agreed to treat you with TCM, I will contact him to join the TCM treatment plan. ”

……………………

A week later.

Zuo Li came to the chest department for consultation, and came to the old worker's ward with Chen Tianming and Qi Miao.

The old worker's wife was dancing with him about something interesting. The old worker was lying flat on the bed, with his legs spread out in a very comfortable posture, grinning happily.

Seeing Zuo Li and Chen Tianming coming in, followed by Qi Miao, he hurriedly said to his wife: "Quickly shake the bed up, let me rely on Hao to talk." ”

Zuo Li pressed his shoulder and said, "No need, just lie down like this." You can now lie flat, congratulations! It was not easy to lie flat in the past. ”

"That's not it, I used to have to recline, and I slept like this at night, as soon as I lay down, my chest was tight and panting, my heart was flustered, I kept coughing, and I couldn't sleep at all, so I always had insomnia and was upset. Now it's okay to lie down and sleep. Thanks to the use of Chinese medicine, I think it is the effect of Chinese medicine, which was not possible before. After two or three days of taking Chinese medicine, I was able to lie flat, and I told my wife that if I had known, I would have let you be cured. ”

Qi Miao is his bedside doctor, and he added a sentence with some jealousy at the back: "It used to be treated by Chinese medicine together." ”

The pronunciation of this sentence is obvious, that is, you didn't treat TCM before? If it works, it should have worked, so why wait until now? It can be seen that it is not necessarily the effect of traditional Chinese medicine.

The old worker still respected Qi Miao very much, but since the last time he knew that he had cured a patient for drug-induced hepatitis, and his wife made a fuss in the hospital office, he began to look down on him. And now he's still sneering there. The old worker was stubborn, and immediately turned his head to Chen Tianming and said, "Director Chen, I want to change a doctor, if you don't let me change it, I will go to the Chinese medicine department for treatment." ”

Qi Miao's face suddenly turned red, and he said stupidly: "Who is threatening?" ”

Chen Tianming turned his head and glared at Qi Miao, who quickly shut up.

Chen Tianming said to the old worker: "Your disease needs long-term treatment, and it is indeed not a cure that can be cured in a short time. It's good that TCM has improved your quality of life, but I don't think there's any major problem with Dr. Qi's previous treatment plan. We have discussed these plans together, so you will not actually change the treatment plan if you change to another doctor. Therefore, it is up to Dr. Qi to continue to treat you. ”

The old worker said, "Forget it! Those who can cure other people's livers can also cure my heart and lungs! Either I'll change doctors, or I'll change departments. - Doctor Zuo, can I go to your TCM department for treatment? ”
