"The family members will wait in the lounge for a moment." Fang Xiaoran, who followed the nurse, directly stopped Wang Bin who was following him, took Lu Chenxi outside the family reception room and whispered. "Teacher Lu, the detailed inspection report is out." "The patient's syphilis titer is very high. Preliminary judgment is that it is suspected to be syphilitic heart disease caused by tertiary syphilis..." Based on various examination reports, Fang Xiaoran explained the patient's specific situation and his own analysis in detail. "I know, you go and continue to monitor the patient's vital signs." "I will discuss it in detail with the family." After taking the inspection report from Fang Xiaoran's hand, Lu Chenxi frowned and returned to the family reception room again. The patient's current emergency is worse than she expected... "In addition to the basic diseases such as high blood pressure and coronary heart disease you mentioned, do your family members know what other diseases your father has suffered from?"
Lu Chenxi looked at the patient's family and asked seriously. Infectious diseases like syphilis are not only extremely harmful to the patients themselves, but also can be easily transmitted to those closest to them without systematic treatment... "It should be gone. We have always lived with my parents, and my dad has never been treated for other diseases." Wang Bin thought about it for a long time, but there seemed to be no relevant situation in his memory. "Has your father had any physical examinations in recent years? Or has he had any surgery in the hospital?" Lu Chenxi stared at the family members and continued to ask. Tertiary syphilis has spread to cardiovascular lesions, indicating that syphilis has existed in the patient's body for at least ten or twenty years. Logically speaking, as long as a physical examination is performed or a minor operation such as hemorrhoidectomy is performed, the hospital will usually draw blood and test it. During such a long period of time, there should be no possibility that the family members would not know about it... "No! My dad's body has always been very strong. In the past ten years, he has basically never been hospitalized." "Even if he feels unwell, has a rash, has a headache or a cold, he always drinks some amoxicillin to solve the problem." Wang Bin was very sure of his reply. Compared with parents of peers, healthy parents will definitely save their children a lot of worry... "That makes sense..." Lu Chenxi murmured to himself, thoroughly corroborating the examination report with the patient's condition. Penicillin is the best specific drug for treating syphilis, and amoxicillin is a penicillin-based capsule. The patient's long-term incorrect medication has suppressed the syphilis toxin in the patient's body and no specific physical signs have appeared. But it is precisely because of the long-term abuse of drugs that directly caused the emergence of antibiotic resistance, leading to an explosion of syphilis toxin that had been suppressed for a long time, resulting in a more serious syphilitic heart disease... "What makes sense?"
"What's going on, doctor? Is my dad's condition serious?" After seeing the doctor who didn't speak for a long time, Wang Bin quickly asked nervously, which made him even more unsure... "I must regret to inform you that according to your father's examination report, it can now be confirmed that your father has syphilitic heart disease." "Whether it is syphilitic aortic regurgitation or syphilitic aortic aneurysm, further examinations must be conducted to confirm." "And because syphilis has been latent in your father's body for at least more than ten years, I suggest that the family members living together, especially your mother, should cooperate with a thorough examination..." Lu Chenxi seriously explained the specific situation faced by the patient to his family members, and based on the strong contagiousness of syphilis, he gave the doctor the most appropriate advice... "Syphilis...syphilis?" "Still lurking in my father's body for at least ten years!" Wang Bin jumped up and stood up directly from his seat. He looked at Lu Chenxi with a pale face and shouted in disbelief. "You must have made a mistake! Isn't this ridiculous?" "My father is 80 years old, how could he get this...such a shameful disease!" "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible..." The doctor said his father had cancer, which Wang Bin could accept, but said his father had syphilis, which he couldn't accept at all. Who doesn't know that only those who live a disorderly life will suffer from this embarrassing disease? His old man never leaves the house all day long. How could an old man who was not even interested in square dancing contract such an exaggerated STD... The scariest thing was how he had to explain this to his mother. Their whole family still lives together. Is there any possibility that Wang Bin himself, including his wife and children, may be infected? Thinking about this terrible consequence, Wang Bin's hair almost stood up... "This is the inspection report, you can take a look at it." "We can also redo the blood test if you have any questions about the results." "But I can tell you clearly that for this highly contagious disease, the hospital is very cautious in issuing results, and there is no possibility of error at all!" The facts are indeed very unacceptable, but as a doctor, Lu Chenxi must seek truth from facts. Only by allowing the patient's family to accept the facts will it be conducive to close and coordinated cooperation between both parties in the subsequent treatment process... "I'll find an expert here for consultation." "Lin Yi, please persuade the family members again. For the sake of safety, it is best to let the family members come to the hospital for a thorough examination." After explaining Lin Yi's precautions, Lu Chenxi hurriedly left the family reception room. The best penicillin drugs for treating syphilis, since the patient has developed drug resistance, changing the drug or whether further surgical treatment is needed are all major issues that need to be considered next... "What should I do, Doctor Lin?"
"How can I go home and tell my mother and wife about this? Will they be able to accept it after hearing about it?" "Doctor Lin, please help me think of a solution." "I really can't say that I have such a disease..." Wang Bin tore his hair and begged Lin Yi with his big red eyes. If an honest family gets this disease, let alone spread it out, the family members are ashamed to talk about it. Wang Bin, who had no idea what to do, had to treat Lin Yi as his last straw, hoping that he could help him with some ideas... "So, if you have any concerns, go home and tell your family members that your father will need blood for surgery and needs the cooperation of your family members to do a blood test." "I'll tell you as soon as the report is issued." "No matter the result is good or bad, I think your father's condition will have to be told to the family members sooner or later." "After all, you are a big family living together, so you should pay more attention in the future..." After a little consideration, Lin Yi gave the patient's family members an acceptable plan. If the family members were not infected, Wang Bin could tell his family members about his father's condition. But if the worst happens, for example, Wang Bin's mother is also infected. Only by receiving symptomatic treatment as soon as possible can we prevent such a dangerous situation as his father's...
