Chapter 166: Collapse IQ
There was nothing to say all night, and before dawn the next day, Li Yi got up.
After a brief wash, he took his father straight to the affiliated hospital opposite the guest house.
Compared with the county hospital, the affiliated hospital is much more magnificent.
Not only is there a security guard at the door, but the place to see a doctor is also a small bungalow of the common kind, but a row of tall five-story buildings.
The first time he came to this kind of place, Li Shankui was somewhat restrained, and even nervous.
On the contrary, Li Yi didn't feel it at all!
Five-story hospitals are indeed uncommon in this era, but looking at later generations, how many regular tertiary hospitals do not have dozens of floors?
He took his father to the registration place with ease, and then hung up the number of an expert named Liu Jimin.
This was recommended to him by the doctor from the county hospital, saying that this old doctor Liu was the first person with lung disease in Saibei Province, and it was right to look for him.
And it was also Dr. Zhou who reminded him that Dr. Liu's number was difficult to hang up, and he had to queue up early in the morning, and he wouldn't be able to hang up if it was late.
After registering, the time was less than seven o'clock, and Li Yi waited at the door of the clinic with his father!
After waiting for a full hour, the entrance of the clinic was already full of patients and family members waiting to see a doctor.
Just when everyone was anxious about when the doctor would come, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in a white coat walked over and opened the door of the consultation room with a key.
The moment the door of the clinic was opened, patients and family members rushed to the door, and the scene was really scary.
However, the little girl seemed to have been accustomed to it, and saw her slender hand stretched forward, and then said loudly: "All go back, Teacher Liu has to wait a while to come over!" ”
Then, without waiting for everyone to speak, they found a broom and a mop and cleaned up.
Li Yi didn't go over, he could see at a glance that this little girl should be an intern doctor.
Such interns are usually just a hand for the old doctor, and it is a complete waste of time to find her.
His gaze was constantly scanning the corridor on the left, as if searching for something.
At this moment, an old doctor with a white beard appeared in Li Yi's sight.
It's him!
Li Yi did not hesitate, and immediately greeted him.
"Hello Mr. Liu, I finally waited for you to come!"
Liu Jimin looked at the young man in front of him in surprise, and immediately asked, "Hello little comrade, do we know each other?" ”
"I don't know, I was introduced by Director Zhou of Qingshan County People's Hospital, and he said that my father's illness can only be seen by you!" Li Yi said.
Although Liu Jimin couldn't remember who Director Zhou was, he still nodded and said, "Little comrade, where is your father uncomfortable?" ”
"I often cough, Director Zhou felt that there might be something in my lungs after reading it, so let me come here to find you to take a look!"
"Oh, where the patient is, I'll see!" Liu Jimin said as he walked.
"Okay!"
Li Yi waited for this, and immediately greeted his father, and then followed Liu Jimin into the consultation room.
When other patients and their families saw Li Yi and Dr. Liu talking and laughing, they thought they knew each other, but they didn't dare to say anything.
In this way, Li Yi took his father into the consultation room first.
In the consultation room, Liu Jimin inquired about Li Shankui's condition in detail, and then checked his body.
Subsequently, Liu Jimin said to Li Yi: "Although your father's lungs have murmurs, but his breathing is steady and powerful, in my experience, the problem should not be very big, if you are not at ease, you can do a chest CT, but it may be a little expensive!" ”
"How much?"
Hearing the doctor say that it was expensive, Li Shankui asked subconsciously.
However, without waiting for Dr. Liu to answer, I heard Li Yi say directly: "Dr. Liu, you can give the bill!" ”
"Hmm!"
With the list written by Liu Jimin, Li Yi immediately took his father to pay the fee, and then came to the CT room according to the nurse's instructions.
Li Shankui looked at the payment slip in his son's hand, and his heart was dripping blood.
Just now, he saw with his own eyes that his son directly paid 120 yuan to others, which was enough for him and his wife to dig in the field for a year.
Li Yi saw his father's thoughts, smiled and said: "Dad, this CT is a new diagnostic technology imported from abroad, whether there is something in your lungs, this thing can be seen at once, and it is normal to be more expensive." ”
Hearing that it was imported from a foreign country, the expression on Li Shankui's face eased slightly, but he still couldn't help but say: "Even if it's from a foreign country, it's still too expensive!" ”
"Don't be afraid, as long as you can cure your disease!"
"Hmm!"
.......
When I came out of the hospital, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
Whether it was Li Shankui or Li Yi, the expressions on their faces were a lot more relaxed.
After CT examination, no abnormalities were found in Li Shankui's lungs.
So the final diagnosis given by Dr. Liu Jimin was that Li Shankui had a perennial cough because he smoked all year round and because he had chronic asthma on the other hand.
Subsequently, the treatment he gave was to take medication and quit smoking.
Medicines are more common and inexpensive.
Only this quitting smoking can stump Li Shankui, he learned to smoke at the age of 15, and it has been almost 40 years now.
Smoking has become an unobtainable part of his life, and even the greatest pleasure of his life, and now he has quit it, how can this be done.
But the doctor's words are also very clear, if he doesn't quit smoking, his asthma will never get better.
Over time, asthma and smoking are more likely to cause other pathologies, and may even induce lung cancer.
Hearing the doctor's words, Li Yi also understood in his heart.
It is likely that his father in his previous life died for this reason.
Fortunately, this life was discovered early, and everything was still in time.
If my father had succeeded in quitting smoking, he might have been able to avoid the tragedy of his past life.
Walking on the streets of the provincial capital, neither father nor son spoke, and the atmosphere was a little dull.
When he came to a state-run hotel, Li Yi walked in with his father.
This is a restaurant specializing in halal meals, and Li Yi immediately asked for a large plate of chicken that is common in the northwest region.
While waiting for the food to be served, Li Yi poured his father a cup of tea, and then said, "Dad, let's quit smoking!" ”
Li Shankui was silent, he also wanted to quit smoking, but he was worried that he couldn't do it.
"Dad, you are now a grandfather, and you will be a grandfather in a few months, and I still expect you and my mother to help me take care of the children in the future, so this smoking must be quit!" Li Yi said.
"You can take care of your children without quitting smoking!"
Li Shankui was a little moved, but he still said a little stubbornly.
"Smoking is not good for children, do you know secondhand smoke?"
"What secondhand smoke?"
"It's the smell of smoke you spit out when you smoke!"
"What's wrong?"
Li Yi immediately said: "Second-hand smoke contains tar, nicotine, suspended particles and other harmful substances and carcinogens, if we non-smokers often inhale second-hand smoke, these harmful substances enter the airway, irritate the airway mucosa, and often induce respiratory diseases, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, lung cancer, etc." ”
"You kid didn't coax me, did you?" Li Shankui frowned.
"I swear to God, I didn't lie to you about this!"
Then Li Yi said again: "Secondhand smoke contains dozens of carcinogens, and long-term exposure to secondhand smoke and repeated stimulation by these carcinogens may induce cancer. ”
"In addition, frequent passive inhalation of secondhand smoke will cause abnormal blood lipids, increased blood viscosity, and often destruction of myocardial tissue, so the risk of coronary heart disease will be greatly increased."
Seeing the entanglement on his father's face, Li Yi decided to strike while the iron was hot.
"Dad, we adults are better, but children's words are dangerous!"
"Why is it dangerous?" Li Shankui asked with a frown.
"The respiratory system of infants and young children is not particularly perfect, and if you inhale secondhand smoke for a long time, not only may you develop bronchitis, pneumonia and other diseases, but also the possibility of asthma will be higher."
Li Yi continued: "In addition, secondhand smoke in infants and young children will increase the risk of otitis media, middle ear effusion, tympanic membrane tension and other diseases, damage the auditory system, and in severe cases, it will affect hearing, resulting in hearing loss. ”
"What's more serious is that after nicotine is broken down, cotinine will appear, and this harmful substance will affect the child's intellectual development after entering the blood system."
"Dad, you don't want me and Xiaoxue's child to be born, you can't touch it, right!"
Li Shankui looked at Li Yi, then sighed and said, "Forget it, for the sake of my little grandson, Lao Tzu promised you to quit smoking!" ”
"Hahaha, okay!"
