Chapter 102: The Doctor Was Deceived Too
"After taking their medication, the seizures were controlled. But for more than a month, my daughter began to speak clearly, couldn't get out of bed, couldn't walk, and wanted to call them, but the phone didn't work. Alas, Dr. Lin, I'm dying in a hurry. ”
"Since my daughter can't walk, I can't bring her to the clinic alone. Well...... I'd like to ask you to come and see my home, which lives nearby. ”
After listening to this man's words, Lin Lin understood the reason.
In this era, there are too many such advertisements. Moreover, because of backward communication and information asymmetry, there are many people who are fooled.
After listening to his words, Lin Lin knew that there was another person who was harmed by black-hearted advertising. What Lin Lin didn't expect was that the person who fell for it turned out to be an internist with many years of medical experience.
This made Lin Lin even more convinced that the various systems he implemented in the hospital to improve the quality of medical care were very necessary and timely.
With Lin Lin's decades of clinical work experience, with his deep understanding of epilepsy. After listening to the doctor's words, he already knew the cause of the girl's current symptoms.
"Alas, you big water fish, you were cut all over in blood, I don't know what's going on, you're still an internist. (Big water fish, Guangcheng dialect, meaning of wronged big head) "For such a doctor, Lin Lin is never polite.
"I have a full schedule and can't come to your house to see your daughter. However, you only need to answer me a few questions, and I can tell you how to solve it. ”
"I know you're busy, and I've been waiting for you for weeks. Please ask Dr. Lin, and I promise to answer truthfully. ”
"When your daughter speaks, her voice is as if it bursts out of her throat, and it is still muffled."
"Yes, it does. Every word she said, that voice, just as you described"
"You help her to walk, do her legs have to be very spread apart so that she can barely walk."
"Yes, that's right." The more the doctor listened, the more surprised he became. He came to Lin Lin after being introduced by others. Seeing Lin Lin so young, he still didn't believe it. Now, after listening to the two sentences Lin Lin asked, he completely believed it.
"Your daughter's hand, when she wants to grasp something, is it not accurate to grasp the target, and it is shaky."
"yes, that's it." Lin Lin's every sentence was to the point.
"Did you bring these powders with you?"
"Yes, I brought a small packet."
"Show me."
Lin Lin took the medicine powder handed to him by the doctor, tore open the simple seal, and a strong smell of angelica came to his nose.
Lin Lin had seen this situation a lot in her previous life. Why so many people are deceived, in addition to the people who are fooled, the shrewdness of the scammers and the scammer's grasp of the psychology of these people are the most critical factors.
Most Chinese people believe that Western medicine is poisonous, and eating too much will hurt the body. On the contrary, Chinese medicine is non-toxic and good for the body. Therefore, the majority of the grassroots people are more willing to accept Chinese medicine than Western medicine.
Therefore, this kind of fake medicine must be added with some traditional Chinese medicine with a strong taste, so that people who are fooled believe that what they eat is traditional Chinese medicine, which is "non-toxic" traditional Chinese medicine.
Lin Lin smiled slightly, resealed the plastic medicine bag, and handed it to the doctor.
"Do you know why your daughter is like this?"
"I don't know, that's why I'm looking for you." At this time, he didn't dare to rely on the old and sell the old.
"I'll tell you first, why your daughter is like this now, and then I'll tell you how to deal with it later."
"Good, good, good. Say, please. ”
"Your daughter, in her current condition, is a side effect of the drug, and if she takes it again, it will cause irreversible cerebellar damage. At any time, it will be useless for you to come to me again. ”
"Huh?! Is it equivalent to mild poisoning? ”
"You can say the same thing."
"That'...... What kind of drug is this poisoning? ”
"Phenytoin! Do you know phenytoin? ”
"I know, my daughter used to take carbamazepine, and later, she stopped taking it because of a rash. Before using these powders, phenytoin was also consumed. Although it is not completely controlled, it can be regarded as basic control, and the frequency of seizures is kept at once or twice a month. ”
"Dr. Lin, are you saying that there is phenytoin in these powders?"
"Yes, definitely. Phenytoin is ground into a powder and blended into these herbs. If you are asked to make these powders, can you control the amount of phenytoin in each bag of powders at a fixed value? ”
"Hmm...... No, definitely not. Unless it's made bag by bag, but it's impossible for them to do that. ”
"That's right, your daughter's epilepsy is indeed under control, and the credit is not for traditional Chinese medicine, but for phenytoin. The culprit of your daughter's current situation is not traditional Chinese medicine, or phenytoin. ”
"I see, I see. Phenytoin, a bottle of 100 tablets, can be eaten for a month, only more than 1 yuan, how dare he charge me 2,000 yuan a month. It dawned on the doctor.
"Such scams are everywhere now. Liars are hateful, but as a doctor, a senior internist, you have been deceived in such a daze, which really makes me speechless. ”
"If you don't come to me today and continue to give your daughter these 'miracle medicines', your daughter will soon be ruined by your confused doctor father."
"Dr. Lin, what should I do next?" Listening to Lin Lin's tone, the old doctor knew that his daughter had not yet reached the point of incorrigibility, and her face, which had been tense, began to relax.
"I'll give you two bottles of sodium valproate tablets, and you give her one tablet three times a day. For the first week, you should not reduce the dose of these powders and continue to take them at the same amount. ”
"Starting in the second week, reduce the powder to one bag for a week. In the third week, reduce the sachet by one more until finally the powder is completely stopped. ”
"In this process, if there are no seizures, it is ideal. If you have a seizure, you come to me again. Remember, don't rush and taper gradually. ”
"In a month's time, for better or worse, you will come to me and tell me about the situation." Lin Lin has a lot of experience in the treatment of epilepsy.
"Okay, I see. Thank you, thank you very much! The old doctor's brows finally relaxed, and he left Lin Lin's consultation room.
At this moment, it is already close to three o'clock. Getting off work at such a time is the norm for Lin Lin, whether it is in her previous life or after rebirth.
"Well, I have to find time to talk to Director Ding about how to strengthen popular science education for patients." In her previous life, Lin Lin attached great importance to popular science education, and did a lot of work and effort for it.
