Chapter 64: Arteriovenous Malformations and Eddie's Plea for Help (5000 words)

After listening to Du Wei's words, Giles unsurprisingly chose the latter.

In his words, if his lungs can't be lucky, what else does he need this hand to lift the trumpet?

As for death, that's exactly what he wants.

At this moment, Pete, who had undergone emergency treatment for his hand, returned to the hospital room.

When he saw Du Wei standing there, he was immediately angry.

"Dewey! What are you doing here? Did I have you talk to a patient?

You give me ......"

Before Pete could say anything, he was interrupted by Giles, who was weak in the hospital bed:

"I allowed him to come, and from now on, you're no longer my attending doctor, House is."

Pete was immediately stunned, didn't care about scolding Du Wei anymore, and hurriedly said:

"But House violated the D.N.R. Protocol, and Dr. House won't respect your choice at all.

Your choice of him for your treatment will only lead to worsening of the symptoms!

Trust me, House isn't a good choice. ”

The corners of Giles's mouth grinned, revealing a relieved smile:

"Do you know what this young man told me just now?

He said there were only two options after receiving the treatment proposed by House, either cure or die.

I am happy with both results.

As for you, you can't give me what I want.

So Dr. Pete, you've been kicked out. ”

Hearing that he had been kicked out of this case, Pete's inner anger rose again.

But the guy lying on the hospital bed is not the ordinary family with no background and no power yesterday.

This guy is very well-connected in the music industry, and if he gets angry at him, I'm afraid that he will make the headlines in the next day's newspapers.

This kind of thing is big, but it's not so easy to fool over.

At that time, the disciplinary committee will inevitably impose heavy penalties.

Therefore, Pete could only glare at Du Wei fiercely and turn away.

He knew that this kid must have done it, because House couldn't reach Giles because of the ban.

So it will only be the clever Du Wei who will make Giles change his mind!

What a damn one!

I was put on the spot by this intern again!

He's almost giving up on his idea now.

What death is not the best punishment can go to the horse.

He wants Du Wei to die today!

But when he thought of yesterday's call from a 3A-level security company, he felt a headache again.

This Du Wei actually spent a lot of money to find a bodyguard? Should security awareness be so high?

In the case that he can't issue a reward through the Continental Hotel, he can only find those well-connected killers in private to go on missions.

However, he was not sure if the killer he was looking for would be able to break through the protection of a triple-A security company.

After all, not everyone is the Night Demon John.

Anyway, this self-proclaimed top 3A-level security company is not a dough to be handled, it is basically poached from the active Marine Corps, they are very hard steel plates.

Pete, who couldn't find a good way after thinking about it, could only endure it again.

He kept hinting to himself in his heart that as long as his friend successfully invested in this hospital, then whether it was Du Wei or House, he would be at his disposal.

At that time, arranging some cases with ulterior motives will not only make them lose their doctor's license, but also send them to prison!

Thinking about it like this, Pete's heart felt a lot better, and the green tendons on his head gradually eased.

"Then put up with him a little longer, and you will look good in a few days."

……

With the patient's consent, the surgery was quickly scheduled.

The chief surgeon was Chase, and Cameron and Du Wei assisted in the operation as the second and third assistants.

The main stress of this surgery is all on Chase.

Fortunately, Chase's strength was very strong, and there was no accident in the whole process, and the blood clot in the cerebral blood vessel was successfully removed.

After the operation, the patient remained conscious and regained sensation in his arm.

This means that Giles is no longer a paralyzed patient.

And unexpectedly, Giles also regained sensation in his legs!

This made Giles, who had never felt the feeling of his legs coming back in two years, couldn't help but smile in surprise.

"My legs ...... It's sentient! ”

The discovery of this scene immediately stunned Chase and Cameron.

If Giles regained sensation in his leg, then A.L.S. was just a misdiagnosis!

Otherwise, Giles's leg would not have been able to return to normal at all!

Regardless of the fact that Du Wei and House were basically guessing when they were diagnosed before, it turned out that they were both right!

This is not a paralyzed patient at all!

Chase immediately gave the two of them a look, and then congratulated Giles as usual:

"Congratulations, it's clear this isn't A.L.S.

As for what kind of disease it is, we will make a second diagnosis after consultation with Dr. House. ”

Giles, who was in a good mood, immediately spoke:

"Please help me tell Dr. House that the court is my fault and I will let them drop the case.

At the same time tell him, thank you.

Of course, there is also this little brother, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have given up on my life long ago. ”

Hearing Giles's praise, Du Wei smiled:

"Because any patient who has hope of being cured, we will not give up, this is the philosophy of our diagnostics.

So when we were worthy of the white coats, we were very unhappy to see patients who still had hope of a cure sign the D.N.R agreement. ”

Giles, who could already feel the calf up, suddenly smiled awkwardly:

"That's because the doctors I met told me that my symptoms had been diagnosed with A.L.S.

If a good doctor like you had told me that there were other possibilities, I would never have given up.

I know the words of thanks are feeble, but I want to say it again, thank you for saving my life. ”

Du Wei patted Giles's leg and was full of emotion:

"Live well, there are many people in this world who want to live well but can't do it."

Du Wei originally meant to lament Giles's behavior of not valuing life, but Giles misunderstood it as something else.

I saw him nod slightly, and then said:

"When I am discharged from the hospital, I will use your and House's names to set up a charitable fund dedicated to helping those who want to live well."

Du Wei wanted to refuse, but then he thought that maybe this would also be a new way to continue to gain life, and it would be worth trying.

So in the end, Giles's understanding was acquiesced.

When they reported the results to House, House suggested the easiest way to do it.

"Stop the medicine, stop all the medicine we gave him, and we can understand what is wrong with him."

Chase frowned:

"But if you stop taking the drug, the patient's condition will deteriorate rapidly."

House closed the report:

"So we're going to find out the real cause before he gets out of the way and stop taking the medicine now."

After saying that, House went straight to the crutches and prepared to leave here.

The condition has reached the final stage of elimination, and it is the same whether he is there or not.

At that moment, Dewey suddenly spoke to attract House's attention.

"If he can feel the re-existence of his calf at this time, then doing an MRI on him now may be different.

Even if there is no change in the MRI, it will be too late for us to stop the medication.

If there is a new discovery, then we don't have to take the risk of stopping the drug. ”

Chase was obviously even more puzzled by Dewey's proposal:

"I've done it before, and I don't want to do it now......"

Before Chase could finish speaking, he was interrupted by House:

"No, Du Wei is right, now that Giles has regained sensation in his leg, maybe there will be a change in the tail of the spinal cord.

So be it, do another MRI for him, and if there is no change, stop the drug immediately.

Well, I'm waiting for your good results. ”

With House's decision, the crowd immediately took Giles back to redo the MRI.

By scanning the thin section, which runs through the entire tail of the spinal cord, Cameron quickly notices something different.

"It's different here, it's an intradural arteriovenous malformation, paralysis caused by compression of his spine!"

Chase was stunned for a moment, and looked at Du Wei with some surprise:

"But why didn't we find out before?"

Du Wei clicked on the light point next to the spine on the screen that seemed to be silent interference:

"There should have been before, but the lesions of arteriovenous malformations are very small and are often overlooked.

Now we find out that the inflammation here is eliminated by steroid drugs, and the arteriovenous malformation puts less pressure on the spine.

That's why Giles was able to regain some of his leg perception. ”

Hearing Du Wei's explanation, Chase nodded approvingly, Giles's seemingly paralyzed condition was actually affected by multiple factors, which led to misdiagnosis.

First is the blood clot in the blood vessels in the brain, followed by the intradural arteriovenous malformation.

Under the dual influence, everyone thought that Giles had A.L.S., and if it weren't for the insistence of Du Wei and House, I am afraid that the ending waiting for Giles would only be death.

The ending now is the best ending.

Because after knowing the real illness, the next thing is much simpler.

Under general anesthesia, the blood clots on the surface of the lesion were successfully flushed away by thermal probe therapy in endoscopic treatment, and the bleeding was stopped by thermal coagulation.

When Giles woke up again, he couldn't stop laughing.

Because he also felt the presence of his toes for the first time in two years!

What does this mean?

This means that it only takes a few weeks of rehabilitation for him to be able to get up and walk again!

And all thanks to Dr. Dewey and Dr. House for not giving up!

Giles, who felt the beauty of life again, was even more determined to establish a charitable foundation in the names of the two of them!

Money can be earned again, but there is only one life!

Dewey and House have rebuilt him with kindness, and he has set up this charitable foundation!

On the other side, after hearing that Giles had regained his feet, Pete was instantly dumbfounded.

Isn't Giles' illness A.L.S? How could he possibly stand up?!

Are they really right, this Giles is not an A.L.S?

But Martin is a well-known neurologist in the industry, can this also be misdiagnosed?

What kind of monsters is this Dewey and House, and this can also be bumped into?

Pete vaguely felt that if Du Wei's son was not eliminated now, it would become a big disaster in the future.

"Wait a few more days, wait a few more days, and he won't grow much in a few days.

It's too cheap to let him die like this, and it's a pleasure to take his life when he has nothing but life!

Otherwise, I'm sorry for my repeated palms! ”

Pitt was thinking about Du Wei, and Du Wei didn't forget about Pete.

It's too dangerous to keep this guy trying to put himself to death.

Dewey, who had gained a new two-day lifespan, was ready to do it himself.

Just then, Du Wei received a call from an unknown number.

Very few people know Du Wei's phone number, and he has only given it to one person recently, Eddie Mora.

Thinking of this, Du Wei could only put aside the matter of solving Pete and connected the phone.

As soon as the phone was connected, an extremely panicked voice came from the other side:

"Help me, help me, my brother-in-law is dead, he's been killed, oh my God, he's dead!

I went downstairs to buy fast food, and when I came back, he died!

If I had stayed here just now, I would have died!

What's going on here? Why? Why would anyone want to kill him......"

Hearing Eddie babbling about the panic in his heart, Dewey waited patiently until Eddie regained his composure.

Eddie, who has not taken NZT-48 and has not experienced all kinds of incidents, is still the same waste Eddie who can't write in front of a computer, can't pay rent, and drinks heavily all day.

So this kind of performance is also expected by Du Wei.

But fortunately, Du Wei left him a business card, so that he would not be stupid enough to go to the police at this time.

If nothing else, the scene is full of his fingerprints.

But Eddie's presence at his brother-in-law's house at least proves that Eddie used an NZT-48 yesterday.

Du Wei, who roughly understood how far the plot had progressed, said calmly:

"So, you're at your brother-in-law's house now, right?"

Hearing Du Wei's voice on the other end of the phone, Eddie was also infected by Du Wei's calmness, and no longer panicked as before:

"Yes, he's dead......"

Without waiting for Eddie to repeat the meaningless words, Du Wei preemptively said:

"Listen to me first, you must have tried out the NZT-48.

Then you should understand that those people killed your brother-in-law to find something.

This also means that your brother-in-law has a large amount of NZT-48 hidden somewhere.

So you now put on your gloves and find your brother-in-law's oven, and in the mezzanine underneath you will find surprises. ”

Eddie on the other end of the phone immediately found the bag of NZT-48 with hundreds of pieces after Du Wei's prompting.

Eddie excitedly said into the phone:

"Found it, found it, it's really here!"

"Shhhhh

Don't try to get detectives for help, they have a connection to the killer.

You're just exposing yourself like that.

Come back to me when you're gone, I think you should know where I am. ”

"Doot-doo-"

A busy signal came when I hung up.

Eddie was puzzled by what Dewey was saying.

Where did he know where Du Wei was? Did Du Wei say where he was? Isn't that a joke?

However, Eddie still followed Dewey's intention and ate the NZT-48 in front of him.

He had felt the benefits of NZT-48 and knew how much of a difference it could make.

After 30 seconds, everything in his eyes was clearly audible.

The images of Dewey that had appeared in Eddie's mind also began to replay in Eddie's mind.

Details that hadn't been noticed before immediately came to Eddie's mind.

The smell of disinfectant water in the hospital, the off-duty hours of each hospital, the calluses on Du Wei's palms, and so on.

The place where Dewey was naturally came to Eddie's mind, Princeton University Hospital.

But even if Eddie's brain development is infinitely close to 100% now, it's hard for him to know how Du Wei knows everything here.

Unless Du Wei is following him all the time!

But now Eddie can be sure that no one is following him.

It seems that if you want to solve these doubts, you have to go to Du Wei.

Eddie shook his head and began to clean up the scene.

After erasing all traces of him, he walked on the road to Princeton University Hospital.

So when Du Wei got off work, he saw Eddie in a washed shirt waving to him across the road.

Du Wei randomly found a café on the side of the road and sat down.

Not surprisingly, Eddie's first words were:

"Who are you? Why are there bodyguards following you? ”

Du Wei smiled and said:

"That's the first thing I want to tell you, even if you take NZT-48, you're not omniscient."

Eddie frowned:

"Sounds like you know a lot about this brain-developing drug?"

"No, I don't know about it, I just know that the side effects of this drug are so great that you can even experience a feeling of time loss after taking it for a long time.

If you stop taking the medication at that time, you will experience symptoms such as visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, muscle atrophy, mental malaise, and rapid aging.

To put it simply, this medicine is developing your brain and overdrawing your potential at the same time.

In addition, the effect of this medicine varies from person to person, and it can even be 99% effective in you. ”

Eddie looked at Du Wei with a solemn expression.

Although Du Wei said that he didn't understand, he obviously knew much more about this drug than Eddie, who took NZT-48 for the second time.

Now he can naturally distinguish the truth of what Du Wei said.

Because he recalled the method of judging the truth of words through micro-expressions in a criminal investigation magazine that he read casually.

And he can now confirm that what Du Wei said is true.

"So you must have known something when you came to me before I took the medicine, right?"

"Yes, because I need you to be able to take the medicine all the time, not you who can die if you take the medicine."

Dewey's bluntness caught Eddie off guard.

He now sincerely understood the meaning of the first words that Du Wei said when they met.

Even with NZT-48's brain, he is still not omniscient.

Now he can understand a person's preferences, language habits, and behavior habits through various details.

But there are some people he still can't tell.

At least, Du Wei, who was sitting in front of him, he couldn't see through it, not at all.

"What about you...... What exactly is required of me? ”

(Thank you Yasurl for the monthly pass, thank you!) )
