The Enhanced Doctor-Chapter 832: Bias in Treating Patients

"Knock knock, Teacher Liu, the diagnosis is confirmed."

After waiting for a moment, Xu Yino came rushing in, her face full of excitement.

"Okay, proceed with the shock therapy as I suggested," Liu Banxia nodded with a smile.

"Then, once the kidney function test results come out, we'll see how it goes. If there's any damage to the kidney, go find Teacher Wu from the Urology Department. He's skilled in nephrology and can adjust based on the current physical condition."

"Dr. Liu, if there's damage to the kidneys, would it be serious?" Bao Chunlai asked.

"If I were to speculate now, it shouldn't cause any irreversible damage," Liu Banxia thought for a moment and said.

"But since there's illness, it often affects the kidneys, so we need to pay extra attention. There may be some impact, but with careful adjustments, it should be fine."

"Liu Yiqing, stay here for the next few days. Rou is somewhat dependent on you. With you here, she'll be more cooperative."

"Okay, Teacher Liu," Liu Yiqing replied with a bright smile.

"Sigh... thank you so much, all three of you," Bao Chunlai stated sincerely.

"Chairman Bao, now that Rou's illness has been identified, everything is easier to handle. You and your wife can also relax a bit, as the cause of this disease isn't very clear, and there's no clear theory to prove any hereditary link."

"So, there's no need to worry about your sons. If there's any discomfort, just check it out at the hospital. In fact, it's generally beneficial to have some annual targeted check-ups."

"Especially you, as you're probably very busy with work and also worried about Rou. You've been under a lot of physical and psychological stress lately. Relax a bit, but relaxation doesn't mean smoking or drinking."

"You can tell that?" Bao Chunlai asked, somewhat surprised.

"The nicotine stains on your fingers aren't very pronounced, but your eye bags are quite large, and there's a lot of bloodshot in your eyes. Plus, your overall mental state isn't very good. You need to pay attention to rest," Liu Banxia said with a smile.

"On this matter, I actually recommend learning from Old Qiu. No matter how vexing things are in his daily life, he goes home and plays with his daughter for a while, and all worries disappear."

"Ah, I forgot to tell Old Qiu," Bao Chunlai slapped his forehead.

"Haha, then give him a call to share the good news, so I don't have to," Liu Banxia said with a smile. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Let's leave it at this for now. With the illness diagnosed, there's nothing to worry about. We'll focus on careful treatment next, and though it's an immune system disease, the prognosis should be quite good in the future."

Bao Chunlai nodded and personally saw Liu Banxia out of the ward, feeling immensely grateful in his heart.

He now had a completely different perspective, having fully accepted his daughter's illness. His plan now was to nurse her back to health and pay more attention moving forward, taking good care of her.

He had no other thoughts, no concerns about heredity or recurrence; those were no longer on his mind.

The advice Liu Banxia just gave was right on target; he knew it was specifically addressed to him. Even if word got out about his daughter's illness, they could provide a normal medical explanation for it.

"Wow, Teacher Liu, you're amazing," Xu Yino said cheerfully in the elevator.

"What's amazing about that? Honestly, I was already dismissing this illness in my mind; the key was that the patient's nasal cavity was fine." Liu Banxia stated.

"This patient's symptoms were atypical, with common symptoms not being apparent, but the neurological impact was significant. Maybe that's why the patient didn't develop severe kidney failure despite the long delay. It's kind of lucky."

"It's true that living and learning constantly is beneficial. The associated symptoms in the books are just based on certain statistics. Sigh... I still need to work harder."

Xu Yino stuck her tongue out, genuinely puzzled about why Liu Banxia held such high standards for himself. The diagnosis today was already swift; it was just a few hours.

In fact, she didn't know what was on Liu Banxia's mind.

The reason Liu Banxia felt a little frustrated was that, in the eyes of doctors, all patients should be treated equally.

But this patient had a different family background, having been referred by Qiu Huaili, which added extra considerations during the consultation.

Because of this, his examination was somewhat incomplete. If he had conducted a thorough examination, the diagnosis might have been made even sooner.

"Brother Hui, I can clock out on time today," Liu Banxia happily called out.

"Got it, it's been diagnosed. But this case is really quite special, not many of the symptoms match." Xu Hui said with a smile.

"That's exactly it, which is why we were all fooled. But now I'm still a bit unsure, will the mental abnormalities caused by the medication be able to return to normal?"

Xu Hui shook his head, "No one can give you a definite answer on that, it can certainly be alleviated, but to what extent, it's hard to say."

"This time, the impact on nerve damage is still quite significant, so it's better to observe slowly. Once the patient's condition stabilizes a bit, we can do a brain MRI."

"But according to normal assumptions, even if there are some residual effects, they shouldn't be too severe, not enough to affect normal life."

Liu Banxia nodded, "For now, that's the only hope we have, hopefully for a good prognosis."

Symptoms are like that, appearing differently in different patients. While Rou's symptoms have some overlap with that child's, there are some differences in the details as well.

In any case, this is indeed the best outcome for now.

Just as he was about to walk out, Liu Banxia's phone rang.

"Brother Qiu, did you also get the news from Chairman Bao?" Liu Banxia asked with a smile.

"Got it, he's so happy he could burst. So, are you getting off work on time tonight? Want to grab a bite together?" Qiu Huaili asked.

"Brother Qiu, I understand Chairman Bao's feelings, but not today." Liu Banxia said.

"The child is undergoing shock therapy, meaning the dosage in the first three days is quite large, so I also arranged for a doctor to monitor it at all times."

"Let the child improve a bit, and also let Chairman Bao have a good rest. He looks really exhausted, let him rest well."

"We don't want him, in his joy, to drink a bit and then have a cardiovascular incident, that wouldn't be good. Besides, Qiaoqiao is making sweet and sour ribs for me tonight, and I can't miss that."

"Hahaha, that's fine too, you'll have more time later, we can arrange it anytime." Qiu Huaili said with a laugh.

"Actually, he wants to apologize to you, as his initial attitude towards you wasn't great. I told him directly you don't care about those things, and that he shouldn't overthink it."

"I'm used to it, no matter what kind of patient family member, they all get anxious before the diagnosis. As long as there's no extreme behavior, we can understand." Liu Banxia replied.

"But you should also advise him to adjust his health properly lately. Worrying about the company, worrying about the child, being emotionally agitated, it's easy to cause other problems."

"I didn't say it too bluntly; you're his friend, he'll listen to you. I still look like an outsider, not sure what taboos there are."

"You're overthinking it, I can tell you, right now he'll listen to anything you say. Anyway, he's been praising you nonstop, his biggest regret was not coming to you directly after returning to the country for treatment." Qiu Huaili said.

"Then just comfort him a bit more, I don't need to think too much about it here, just focus more on his child for the next few days." Liu Banxia said.

"Also, I suggest that after recovery, staying in the country to study is still better. Even if you provide the best care conditions abroad, it's not the same as being here."

"The child's illness is still an immune system disease, with high mental stress and overwork, it's very easy to relapse."

"Sure, I'll mention it to him later. I didn't send Ming Yuan abroad precisely because I couldn't bear it, and because I'm afraid he'd suffer outside." Qiu Huaili said.

"Let's leave it at that for now, I'll come over after you finish work tonight. I'll try Qiaoqiao's sweet and sour ribs, and bring Doudou over to play for a while, since he's been missing your little puppy."

After hanging up, Liu Banxia stretched lazily, feeling quite good overall. After all, diagnosing a complex case is a success.

"What's up? Are you thinking about sending your kid abroad in the future?" Qi Wentai came over.

"No, a patient of mine, who was studying abroad, came back sick for treatment." Liu Banxia said with a smile.

"Although you might experience some special teaching methods abroad, I don't plan on sending my future kids over, I want to think about it first."

"Actually, I don't really care much about future education for the kids; Qiaoqiao is already considering it now. It's going to be a headache in the future, but we'll talk about it later."

"That's about right, among the patients we've seen, there are already some who had their blood pressure shoot up from tutoring their kids. You have two kids, so, well, good luck." Qi Wentai said with a mischievous smile.

Faced with Qi Wentai's teasing, Liu Banxia found himself unable to fight back.

How could you fight back? From generation to generation, life's focus will inevitably be on the two kids. Just hoping these little guys will be well-behaved in the future, so they don't cause too much worry.

By that time, if Qiaoqiao joins in, the three of them bullying me alone would be quite terrifying to think about.
