It turned out to be such a young TCM expert. Jian Yuying's face instantly darkened.

She hadn't slept much all night, and she was full of anticipation for Renhe's expert.

But the higher the expectations, the stronger the sense of loss now.

This is traditional Chinese medicine, not Western medicine, and Chinese medicine is the older you get, the more reassuring people are.

The expert in front of her is the same age as her daughter, and it is difficult for her to believe how powerful she is when she learns Chinese medicine from her mother's womb.

But they all came, and they were free clinics, so she couldn't complain about them.

I only blame myself and my daughter for their bad lives, and they always can't grab the number of real masters like Su Yuzhang and Zhu Liangxue.

Although Tang Wan couldn't see it, the mother and daughter were connected, and she could roughly guess her mother's thoughts, so she gently tugged at her hand.

Yes, don't think too much, just come to see an ordinary Chinese medicine doctor and regulate your child's stomach and intestines.

"It's been eight years." Jian Yuying replied.

She was brief, but Tao Le knew that it must be more than that.

Lupus erythematosus is a diffuse connective tissue disease whose etiology is not clear and can invade multiple systems throughout the body.

Patients themselves produce a variety of antibodies to guide immune cells to attack their own tissues, causing damage to multiple organs and tissues throughout the body, so it is also called systemic lupus erythematosus.

This disease is more common among women between the ages of 10 and 40, and with the current level of normal medical care, there is no cure at all.

However, with glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, 80 percent of patients survive for more than 15 years.

Even putting aside the various reactions brought about by the disease itself, long-term use of hormones also has sequelae.

For example, hormonal glaucoma, progression to hormonal cataracts, and finally blindness.

Patient Tang Wan's eyes were blank, and two distinct white spots of light could be seen from the black eyeballs, commonly known as white pupils, indicating that she had been blinded by this.

However, people who have been taking hormones for a long time are unable to have cataract surgery. So the quality of life of the patient, even if she doesn't have to ask, she can imagine it.

"Since Xiaowan got this disease, her health has been getting worse day by day. Recently seen acid reflux, nausea, vomiting. My muscles are sore, and it is very difficult to fall asleep, and I can wake up many times a night. Jian Yuying said.

"Dreaming?" Tao Le asked.

"Always dreaming." Tang Wan's voice was very soft and very good: "Dreams are all trivial things in daily life, and there is nothing terrible." ”

This mother and daughter are different from the two just now, and they are very careful when talking about their illness, lest they not be specific enough.

This is another kind of patient, who is especially cautious and careful, for fear that one will accidentally miss important information and affect the doctor's judgment.

Through the narration of the two, Tao Le learned about the patient's current situation:

Occasional fever, temperature between 38 and 39 degrees, accompanied by generalized aches.

There is a feeling of soreness in the renal area, and there are two plus signs of urine protein in the morning.

There are many hard spots, lumps, and indurations all over the body, and they are painful and locally suppurated.

Indigestion of the stomach, acid reflux discomfort.

Pain in the anterior heart area and both ribs when breathing.

Long-term sleep quality is very poor, it is difficult to fall asleep, it is easy to wake up when sleeping, frequent urination in dreams, and waking up at least three to four times a night.

I am currently taking imported prednisone, which is a glucocorticoid, plus omeprazole and calci.

"Doctor, I know this disease, and it can't be cured." After introducing her condition, Jian Yuying said her appeal: "I came today to ask you to prescribe some Chinese medicine to adjust my daughter's stomach and sleep." ”

"She's very sensible. No matter how hard she worked, she ate seriously every day, even if she had to vomit out more than half of it after eating, but she couldn't say a word, for fear that I would worry too much. ”

Jian Yuying's voice was a little choked, and Tang Wan took her hand with her backhand.

"Mom, you have been taking care of me for so many years, and you are the hardest. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am now. ”

The mother and daughter didn't interact more, just held hands tightly and supported each other.

Affected by long-term hormone use, Tang Wan's appearance is not good-looking. Full moon face, buffalo back, very stout.

But her demeanor and voice are peaceful and gentle from the heart. This made Tao Le's heart softer.

Other girls have had flower seasons, but Tang Wan has not. From the age of seventeen to twenty-five, she has endured many hardships that others have not endured, and she has also seen different situations in the world - until now, she can't even see it.

Tao Le really wanted to help her and give back the youth and happiness she didn't enjoy.

In this world, only she can do this.

Tao Le checked her pulse. Tang Wan's limbs and expulsion were all induration and hard lumps caused by lupus erythematosus, and the meridians could not be detected at all.

She opened the golden finger. The interface is red.

Age: 25 years old. Health: 31.

Etiology: systemic lupus erythematosus 80%, hormonal cataract (severe blindness) 15%, Cushing's syndrome 5%.

Body temperature 38.5 degrees Celsius, 24-hour urine protein: 1.6 g

Complications: lupus nephritis, protein-losing enteropathy, pseudo-intestinal obstruction, lupus pancreatitis, pericarditis (mild), lupus encephalopathy (mild).

Cushing's syndrome is caused by excessive cortisol hormone, which leads to abnormal body obesity, which is a necessary disease for patients who have been taking hormones for many years.

What made Tao Le sigh was that Tang Wan had so many complications, and every time she took it out, it was a very serious disease, and it was conceivable that she was enduring all kinds of torments every day, and she didn't know how to persevere.

"Let's do acupuncture treatment for a while." Tao Le said.

Jian Yuying was a little unhappy. According to her thoughts, such a young doctor, the soup recipe should have been learned, and acupuncture may not be reliable.

Taking the opportunity of the free clinic, she prescribed some cheap Chinese medicine to drink, which in her opinion was more cost-effective.

"If you don't want acupuncture, can you prescribe Chinese medicine?" There was hesitation on her face.

Tao Le shook his head, his voice was gentle but firm: "Since you have hung up my number, it is fate." When it comes to treatment, you have to listen to me – acupuncture can cure your daughter's illness. ”

"It's not like we don't listen to you." Jian Yuying wanted to say something more, but suddenly heard the last sentence.

"Expert Tao, what did you mean by the last words you just said?" She asked in disbelief.

Tang Wan on the side also raised her head, frowning slightly.

Although I can't see, I can hear clearly. Because of this, she did not have ecstasy and emotion in her heart, but a trace of annoyance.

All kinds of doctors and medical staff, including the Internet and medical books, have repeatedly and ruthlessly told her that there is no cure for this disease, but only to relieve the symptoms and prolong life.

The 10-year survival rate is 90 percent, and the 15-year survival rate is 80 percent.

These cold probabilities made her admit her fate early.

I don't know the joy of life, and I know the sorrow of death.

She is actually not afraid of death, so she has been trying to live, also to keep her mother from sad.

But the female doctor, whose voice was very quiet, said that the disease could be cured.

She may have made a slip of the tongue, or she may have exaggerated, but it will give her mother undeserved hope, and she will only be more disappointed when the time comes.
