When the Doctor Uses A Hack
Chapter 1149 - 1153: So It Really is a Sickness! (Request for Monthly Tickets!)

After listening to the elderly man, Xu Ziming couldn't help but smile.

Seeing this, the old lady couldn't help but look at Zhao Danyan, "You all, being busy with work, must surely lack communication."

"But now I think, when you fight, try to remember his good qualities. After all, which couple doesn't argue?"

"A lifetime just passes in squabbles."

At this moment, Zhao Danyan also felt soft-hearted, after all... she hadn't even given Xu Ziming a chance to explain.

In fact, most women, no matter how strong, mostly aren't as independent as men on the inside, thus they lack a sense of security.

Just as the elderly lady said, both are busy, lacking communication and understanding, which leads to various misunderstandings.

The old lady then said, "Do you think that I am especially kind to my old man?"

Indeed, the old lady treated the elderly man with great tolerance, as if coaxing a child from start to finish.

At this moment, the old lady smiled, rolled up her pant leg, and said, "What do you think this is?"

Everyone looked down and was suddenly startled!

It was... a prosthetic limb!

Everyone was shocked.

An elderly person over eighty years old, using a prosthetic limb, leaning on a cane...

At first, nobody noticed because it's normal for an eighty-year-old to have difficulty walking and need a cane.

The old lady continued, "This leg of mine, I lost it in a car crash when I was 40!"

"I was a dancer before, and my legs were as important as my life, those were the darkest ten years of my life."

"I thought about suicide many times, feeling unworthy of him, he was very capable..."

"But from that time, he told me, for the rest of our lives, he would be my right leg, wherever you want to go, I'll be with you."

"That journey lasted forty years, he carried me for forty years!"

At this point, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears, a pleased smile on her face.

"Later, he had a stroke, became unsteady, and worried about not being able to take care of me; he always blamed himself."

"At that time, I told him, for the rest of the way, I would carry you."

"In life, there's nothing grandiose, nothing so wonderful; it's just two people supporting each other all the way."

After the elderly person had finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

The old lady lost a leg, and the old man had been her "right leg" for forty years.

The old man had been suffering from strokes for around seven to eight years, and the old lady stood by him, never leaving his side.

If you ask them what love is, they would smile and say what is love?

Indeed, they are love!

"Such is the affection in the human world, why lament that we can't die at the same time?"

"If life and death take us apart, let's make a pact of faith that spans it."

"Holding your hand, growing old with you!"

At that moment, suddenly the emergency center's phone rang.

In the middle of the night, unexpectedly, a call for help came.

Chen Cang quickly stood up, the young nurse at the station also hurriedly answered the phone.

"There's a patient who suddenly fainted on the ground at Unit 3, Xingfu Street, Chaoyang; please provide timely rescue... The patient is a 24-year-old female... suspected stroke!"

A 24-year-old stroke patient?

That's too unusual!

After hanging up the phone, Chen Cang also hurriedly prepared to leave.

There were doctors in the emergency office, and although Chen Cang initially planned to go alone, Zhao Danyan suddenly said, "Professor Chen, I'll go with you."

Chen Cang thought about it and immediately felt it was feasible.

After all, Zhao Danyan herself is a neurology expert. If the patient really suffered a stroke, having Zhao Danyan could indeed be very helpful!

At this point, Xu Ziming quickly said, "I'll go too!"

Before Chen Cang could speak, Zhao Danyan outright rejected him, "What for? You're so heavy, you'll make the ambulance consume too much fuel!"

Chen Cang couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Danyan muttered, "Besides, your cardiovascular skills aren't as good as Professor Chen's. You just stay here and watch, or go have a sleep!"

After speaking, Chen Cang, Zhao Danyan, and nurse Yang Jie quickly set off.

Leaving Xu Ziming there, unable to help but chuckle goofily.

...

...

The ambulance sped through the streets.

There were few people on the roads at night, and once they arrived at the residential area, a middle-aged auntie was already waiting at the entrance.

"Doctor! This way!"

As she spoke, the auntie led Chen Cang and the others towards the building.

After reaching the 15th floor, Chen Cang finally saw the patient!

Is... is this not Mi Di?

Zhao Danyan also recognized the girl at this time.

But at this moment, the girl was lying on the ground, her face deathly pale, with vomit beside her.

Chen Cang and Zhao Danyan hurriedly placed the girl on the stretcher.

The middle-aged woman said: "Doctor, Miss Mi is a good person, you must save her!"

Chen Cang was momentarily taken aback: "Are you a family member of the patient?"

The woman shook her head: "I am the housekeeper. Miss Mi is from out of town, her family isn't here."

Hearing this, Chen Cang frowned: "Is there any emergency contact?"

The woman suddenly said: "Miss Mi had a boyfriend, but they broke up recently and haven't been in contact."

Zhao Danyan kneeled down, took out a flashlight, checked Mi Di's pupils, and after assessing her said: "Put her in the ambulance and start monitoring."

Chen Cang nodded, and along with the driver, Old He, lifted the patient towards the elevator.

The housekeeper also boarded the ambulance.

Mi Di was dressed in pajamas, which were easy to undo.

Yang Jie immediately conducted an electrocardiogram.

But the results were completely normal!

Once the heart monitor was connected, the patient's vital signs were surprisingly normal!

At this, everyone was momentarily stunned.

What could be the reason?

At that moment, suddenly the girl began to convulse.

Zhao Danyan's face changed, and she quickly said: "Master, hurry back to the hospital!"

Everyone now became curious, what could the situation be?

Focal epilepsy?

Could it be caused by... cerebral hemorrhage?

Suddenly, Chen Cang remembered that Mi Di had gone to the hospital for an MRI today, she hurriedly asked: "Did she take her MRI scans with her when she left?"

The housekeeper nodded: "She did!"

"But after coming back, she seemed upset and had some alcohol, I didn't ask."

Old He, the driver, asked: "Should we go back to get the scans?"

Chen Cang shook her head: "No need, I'll call the radiology department."

At this time, Zhao Danyan asked: "What's wrong with the patient?"

Chen Cang detailed Mi Di's condition to Zhao Danyan, including the mistaken identity incident.

Chen Cang also got through to the doctor on duty over the phone, who hastily started checking the records.

Soon, the other party directly said: "Dr. Chen, it's cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, the report warns of cerebral hemorrhage, didn't the patient come to you in the emergency?"

Call ended!

Zhao Danyan, connecting all the clues in her mind, suddenly said: "The patient should have Capgras Syndrome!"

Chen Cang was startled: "Capgras Syndrome?"

Zhao Danyan nodded: "Yes!"

"The patient has cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, linked to the symptoms just now: headache, vomiting, accompanied by seizures! So, I infer that this is a series of symptoms coming together with obstruction of the superior sagittal sinus!"

"After obstruction of the superior sagittal sinus, intracranial hypertension may cause bleeding, and at this time, the cerebral cortex can become excited due to abnormal electrical activity!"

"At the same time, the area of the brain cortex responsible for face recognition might malfunction, causing prosopagnosia or even mistaken identity among a series of symptoms!"
