1658 The appendicitis that was not saved
“Division Chief Mao, the diagnosis is acute appendicitis. There’s nothing wrong with it.” The professor on duty was called over by the chief resident to give director Mao a definite diagnosis.
Because of the incident last time, director Mao had to rest at home for a while.
The illness of time did not soothe the trauma in her heart. As she gained weight, her mood became more and more depressed.
Three days ago, she felt pain around her navel, but she recovered very quickly.
The intermittent pain made Mao long feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Working in a hospital, one would still have the most basic medical knowledge. “It’s a type of transferred lower abdominal pain. It should be appendicitis.
As expected, the location of the pain was fixed a day ago, it was in the right lower abdomen.
Division Chief Mao took antibiotics for a day, but the symptoms did not get better. Instead, they got worse.
Hence, she could only go to the hospital and find someone from the gastrointestinal department to take a look at her.
He had done a blood test and an ultrasound scan. The diagnosis was clear. It was indeed acute appendicitis.
“Division Chief Mao, I suggest surgery.” Professor Wu, who was on duty, said politely,”as for the surgery, you don’t have to worry. Just make an incision on the belly button.”
“Can you not perform the surgery?” Director Mao asked.
“Probably not,” “The ultrasound shows that there is a small amount of oozing,” professor Wu said.”The blood level is very high. It will be difficult to keep it.” If we insist on conservative treatment, there might be a series of complications such as perforation. “
Director Mao knew the doctors ‘character. No matter what illness it was, they would directly tell him the most serious complications. It would be difficult to explain if it really happened after the surgery.
She nodded her head in disdain.
“I’d better keep it up for one night. Oral anti – inflammatory drugs don’t work, but it might work if I take a shot.” Mao was in so much pain that his forehead was covered in sweat, but he still insisted.
Professor Wu felt bitter.
Division Chief Mao’s symptoms of acute appendicitis are already very serious, and the possibility of perforation is very high.
According to his many years of clinical experience, it was highly likely that he would not make it through the night.
From the bottom of his heart, he did not want to operate on chief Mao.
This kind of surgery should be done well. If they did not do it well, or the postoperative pain was slightly severe, they would be labeled as not being good enough.
But without surgery, it would be hard to explain perforation.
Professor Wu grinned and said,””Director Mao, there’s a high possibility that you have a perforated Appendix. I suggest …”
“Don’t make any suggestions. ” Chief Mao’s face was a little pale, and the thick makeup on his face could not hide the pain.
Cold sweat trickled down his face, leaving faint marks on his sideburns.
“Just give him some antibiotics. He did it twice in the past, and he’s fine.”
Professor Wu was even more helpless when he saw director Mao’s insistence.
“Fur …”
“What fur!” “Didn’t you hear what I said?” director Mao was displeased.
Generally speaking, the leading professors of each department on 912 had a certain status in the world. Not to mention Division Chief Mao, even ye Qingqiu, who was directly in charge, would not speak to the professor in such a harsh tone.
However, Division Chief Mao’s temper had been very bad recently, and coupled with his anxiousness from the pain, his tone had unknowingly become a little more serious.
“Alright, then.” Professor Wu was annoyed and did not try to persuade him anymore. He only told the chief resident to write the medical record well and asked chief Mao’s wife to sign it.
Director Mao was admitted to the special ward and tossed and turned on the bed. It was as if there was a knife in his stomach that was constantly turning around, making his whole body uncomfortable.
It was extremely uncomfortable.
He definitely couldn’t empathize with her when she was sick.
As director Mao cried out in pain on the bed, he cursed in his heart. Why is the pain in his stomach this time even worse than before?
The previous two times he had acute appendicitis, it definitely wasn’t this painful.
But this time, it was especially heavy. She even had the thought that if her heart were to be blocked now, she could be considered to be enjoying it.
“Why don’t we just do it?” Director Mao’s wife advised.
“What are you doing? the knife is not cutting your stomach, is it?” Director Mao glared at her, and her husband immediately cowered.
“I’ll be fine after this bottle of antibiotics is used up. Do you want something to happen to me during the surgery?” Director Mao scolded.
“…” Her husband had no choice but to pretend to pour a glass of water, feeling depressed.
Recently, she had said that she was recuperating at home, but her temper had gotten worse and worse, and in the end, she had become the punching bag.
Sigh, I really can’t go on living like this.
He had always been gentle, and Division Chief Mao was in a powerful position in the family, so he only dared to criticize in his heart and absolutely did not dare to say it out loud.
“Have some water.”
“I’m not drinking! If I want to perform surgery, I need to stop drinking water before the surgery. Are you looking forward to my appendectomy?” Director Mao continued to rage.
His wife could only shut her mouth.
It was as if it was his own fault whether he performed the surgery or not, and he did not know what to say.
After a while, the intense pain in her stomach suddenly subsided.
It was as if he had passed a certain critical point, and everything was going well. I hope nothing will happen this time. No! Everything will be fine.
As the pain subsided, Mao felt much more comfortable. She changed her position and fell into a deep sleep.
Four hours later, the nurse came to take his temperature.
The gun – style thermometer showed that the temperature was 40 degrees Celsius, which shocked the nurse.
Was the thermometer broken?
She immediately took the sterilized mercury thermometer to the ward and put it under director Mao’s armpit.
Director Mao’s lover felt that something was wrong.
She didn’t sleep well, and once she was disturbed, she would get up in a rage. Why was there no movement at all after all this?
He tried to call out to her, but she didn’t say a word and just fell asleep.
A few minutes later, the mercury thermometer also showed 40 degrees Celsius.
The nurse quickly called for the doctor on duty and professor Wu, the chief resident of the gastrointestinal department.
Professor Wu did a physical examination. He had a typical platypus with high fever. He considered that it was a ruptured appendectomy, with the exception of Qiao Nan’s splenic surgery and infectious shock.
Emergency surgery. There was nothing to say this time.
Before the surgery, professor Wu personally explained the whole process of the patient’s condition in a very sad tone.
Director Mao’s lover was a reasonable man. Besides, he had just signed the papers a few hours ago, so he still remembered.
He signed the form obediently and prepared for the emergency surgery.
When the anesthetist was checking on the patient before the surgery, old he ran over in a hurry.
“Old he, your class.” Professor Wu laughed.”I was going to contact Director Xu and get someone to administer anesthesia.”
“Don’t mind me. ” Old he said,”let’s look for director Xu. It’s a hospital director’s surgery, and it’s not good for director Xu not to come.”
“You’re getting more and more humble. I heard that you’re working for boss Zheng and even went abroad?” Professor Wu asked.
“Hehe.” Old he was a little proud, but his mind was still clear. He changed the topic and said, “I’m looking at director Mao. Old Wu, if you don’t want to make the call, I’ll definitely have to report it to you. “
“It’s better for you to report. ” Professor Wu said.
It was already past midnight. No matter who he called at this time, he would probably be scolded.
Why bother?
