The Enhanced Doctor

Chapter 1233: Chapter 1233: Do Not Advise Goodness Without Knowing Others’ Suffering

"We still have to be cautious, after all, it’s a human life," Liu Banxia said.

"Doctor, this is the result of my careful consideration," the patient’s wife replied.

"First of all, how much will this surgery cost? I really can’t afford it. He hasn’t brought home a single penny in the past two years, spending it all outside."

"I wanted to divorce him but couldn’t find him. You might find it laughable, but it’s been three or four months since I last saw him. My child and I have long assumed he’s dead to us."

"Can I still consider a man who doesn’t know how to take care of a family, who even lacks the concept of family, as alive? Thinking like this makes me feel a bit more at ease."

"Moreover, isn’t this surgery risky? If he doesn’t have the surgery, can he still hang on? If something really goes wrong during the surgery, I’m the one who signed, and my in-laws won’t let me live peacefully."

"I haven’t studied much, I used to be just a working girl. I thought marrying a good man would make my life happy. Doctor, as you’re a leader here, tell me what I should do. If you say I need to sign, I’ll sign."

The sound of the wife’s voice wasn’t very loud, but it silenced those who had been judging her for being heartless.

"Don’t advise someone until you’ve walked in their shoes," people often say.

Yet when things happen right before them, people’s immediate reactions tend to be quick judgments.

A lot of people just thought, even if this man cheated, it’s unethical to refuse to sign and let him die.

Instead, the other woman seemed more responsible, spending money for true love.

Now people understand the situation; what this man has done—who wouldn’t be hurt? Not causing a scene at his workplace was already very considerate.

Moreover, the wife’s words hinted that her in-laws aren’t easy to deal with.

If it were you, would you sign?

"Has the child been sent for tutoring? Then please come with me to the office. You didn’t leave immediately, which means you still have some thoughts," Liu Banxia spoke.

"I can sign the documents, I don’t want to waste more time here. But I truly don’t have the money, if someone has money, let them pay," the patient’s wife said.

"Just bring the confirmation form, it’ll save everyone some trouble, and you don’t need to tell me about the risks of surgery."

Liu Banxia nodded, "Please wait a moment, preparing the confirmation form will take a little time. I’m not a neurosurgeon, so I don’t have that authority."

"Liu Yiqing, please take her to the office first. Dr. Zhang, quickly prepare the procedures. And you there, you should move as well, follow along and listen."

The female patient quickly chased after Zhang Xiao.

"It seems matters can only be addressed after the patient’s surgery, no way to have family substitute in handling," Liu Banxia approached the traffic cop.

The traffic cop smiled bitterly, "I’ve seen quite a lot of situations, but something like today, it’s my first time. I also feel sorry for that woman, life isn’t easy."

"Ah... let’s not talk about her, many women today face similar situations to some degree. Devoting themselves to the family, husbands often neglect the wife’s contributions," Liu Banxia sighed.

"Just like us, I don’t know if you’re married. I am, and everything at home is managed by my wife. I get at most one day off a month, and not sure when I’ll get home after work, who else can I rely on but her?"

"I’m not married yet, it’s hard to find a partner," the traffic cop mused.

"Last time a date said straight out she doesn’t like cops. I asked why, she said her car got ticketed before. So I asked, why meet if you’re not interested?"

"What did she say?" Liu Banxia asked, curious.

"She said although rejecting face-to-face was awkward, she wanted the experience," the traffic cop replied with a bitter smile.

Liu Banxia patted his shoulder, this fellow really just found himself amidst unexpected blame.

"I better go check on the patient’s family again, it’s best if everything goes smoothly, without any more issues," Liu Banxia said.

The traffic cop nodded, "You go ahead."

He truly worried that though the patient’s wife agreed earlier, she might have second thoughts during preparation, which can’t be guaranteed.

As he approached the office, the atmosphere between Liu Yiqing and her was rather pleasant, at least things seemed amicable.

"It seems they’ve found common ground," Liu Banxia remarked.

Liu Yiqing crinkled her nose, "It’s similar to my situation, even if I don’t want to deal with it, I can’t truly let it go."

"Good-hearted people always think this way. It’s not bad though; at least in future days, there won’t be any baggage," Liu Banxia said.

"Otherwise, even if it feels good now, there’ll eventually come a day when thinking back, unresolved issues in the heart can make one’s child’s heart tangled as well."

"Ah... life is really not easy," the patient’s wife sighed.

"So we can only stubbornly live on," Liu Banxia said.

"You guys stay here for now, I’ll go outside and take a look. What’s happened has happened, no need to dwell on it anymore, no need to add more burden to yourself."

After saying this, Liu Banxia walked out.

The situation here was already under control, since the lady made her decision, she wouldn’t think about backing out.

You could say she was unlucky with people, but life goes on.

As for when they will officially divorce, that’s not something Liu Banxia needed to care about, as long as the patient’s symptoms are handled, that’s all that matters.

"The operation notice is ready, any problems?" At this moment, Zhang Xiao came over.

"No problem, who’s going to be the lead surgeon?" Liu Banxia asked.

"Director Xiao will be the lead," Zhang Xiao replied.

"I’ll handle the preliminary work, then Director Xiao will rush over from another operating room. It just happened that today, Director Xiao is using our operating room for surgery, otherwise we would have had to call someone else."

"Alright, then go ahead and arrange it. You also need to work hard and aim to handle this kind of surgery soon," Liu Banxia said.

Zhang Xiao gave him a helpless look, really couldn’t compare with this guy. This guy could handle many high-difficulty general surgeries independently, while he was still a bit far from level 4 surgeries.

This was a minor episode in today’s consultations, and even though the New Year was approaching, there were still quite a few patients coming in today.

"Why are there so many people today?" Liu Banxia asked.

"Everyone wants to settle minor ailments before the New Year, take care of them if they can," Qi Wentai said.

"If you’re free, you could really help with the consultations. Do you need to review the examination materials for the patient going to surgery this afternoon?"

"No need, I reviewed everything at home last night. It’s just that the infiltration at the base is quite extensive, nothing else though," Liu Banxia said.

"Hey, young man, come over here to the examination bed, let me take a look at what’s going on. You look a bit weak, where are you feeling unwell?"

"Doctor, I just feel a bit weak and get dizzy easily," the patient who walked over said.

"Any past medical history? Any family history?" Liu Banxia continued to ask.

"The family should have none, my mom has a bit of high blood pressure. I just get dizzy now and then these past few months, especially when I stand up from squatting," the patient said.

"Is it the kind of dizzy where the world spins, or just a momentary disorientation? Any other symptoms like headaches or chest tightness?" Liu Banxia asked.

"No other symptoms, just some dizziness. This dizziness is hard to describe, sometimes it’s like a blackout," the patient thought for a moment and said.

"Come on, lift your lips, let me check your gums," Liu Banxia said.

The patient cooperatively lifted his lips, exposing his gums.

"Judging from your current skin tone and the condition of your gums, your dizziness might be caused by anemia. Your skin is a bit pale and yellow, and your gums are somewhat discolored," Liu Banxia said after checking.

"Anemia? That shouldn’t be, I eat quite well, and I’m not picky," the patient said.

"There are many causes of anemia, but since you’re a man, we can rule out some causes. Do you have hemorrhoids?" Liu Banxia asked.

"Yes, so I don’t dare to drink alcohol now, it makes the hemorrhoids flare up and it’s very painful," the patient said.

"Have you ever observed the color of your stool? Or have you experienced any bleeding during bowel movements? Think carefully." Liu Banxia asked.

"The color of the stool? I haven’t really noticed, and I don’t pay much attention to it. I don’t know about stool bleeding, although the hemorrhoids have had bleeding incidents," the patient said.

"I usually see it on the toilet paper when wiping, anyway, when it’s painful during bowel movements, it tends to bleed," the patient continued.

"Did you eat breakfast?" Liu Banxia asked.

The patient shook his head, "I figured I was coming for a check-up, so I didn’t dare to eat."

"Based on your current condition, the dizziness is probably anemia-related," Liu Banxia said.

"Let’s start with a complete blood count to check your hemoglobin levels. Then we can consider doing an endoscopy, and if there’s stool available, we’ll do a fecal test to check for occult blood."

"An endoscopy too? Won’t that be... embarrassing?" the patient said somewhat awkwardly.

Liu Banxia gave him an exasperated look, "At a time like this, you’re still thinking about nonsense. Let’s first do the blood and stool tests, and we’ll decide based on the results if an endoscopy is necessary."

The patient nodded, knowing that getting a blood test at the hospital was normal, so he’d start with those.
