I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 276 The bulging little bag
Suddenly a month and a half passed. The sun was shining brightly in Texas in May, the air was fresh, and white clouds were floating in the sky.

In the Sequoia Hospital, the green sequoia forest stands tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the spring breeze blows like a continuous jade.

North American redwood, also known as coast redwood, evergreen redwood, and California redwood, is only distributed in a narrow strip of land below 1000 meters above sea level and 800 kilometers from north to south in California and Oregon. It is a "living fossil" in the plant world.

This kind of redwood has a lifespan of up to 3000 years. Its trunk is huge in diameter and can grow into a towering giant tree.

The redwood forest in Crystal Mills was transplanted from California. Although it has not grown for many years, it is already more than [-] meters high. It is very good for hurricane protection.

In the Hangcheng Botanical Garden in Zhejiang Province, there are also sequoia trees donated by the US president in the last century. Thousands of them were later cultivated and introduced in many provinces and cities across the country.Especially in Dongtou, Wenzhou, and Dinghai, Zhoushan, which have a climate similar to that of the American coast, the diameter of redwood trees at breast height has already exceeded 60 centimeters.

The heat of the chemical plant explosion has long since faded away, and has been replaced by many new news and hot topics.

Many injured people have been successfully discharged from the hospital after being treated by Sequoia Hospital. The remaining ones are in more serious condition. However, under the care of the professional team and the guidance of the top celebrity Dr. Zhou, they are not far away from being discharged. .

Luo Ya's menstruation never came again. She took a blood test at the hospital and found that the three indicators of pregnancy (estradiol, progesterone and β-human chorionic gonadotropin) were all very high, so she was definitely pregnant.I just don’t know the gender yet.

The two of them are not in a hurry. This is the eldest son or daughter. Whether it is a boy or a girl, they like it very much.

When the next month is full, Luo Ya wants to test the gender of the fetus. It should not be too simple in her own hospital.However, she didn't intend to deliberately check in advance, because it wasn't important.

Anyway, you will definitely know during the second and third trimester pregnancy tests.

Zhou Qiao was planning to return to San Francisco. Before leaving, he was invited by Sequoia Hospital to be a teacher.

The patient this time was a bit special. His condition was one of the rarest among rare diseases, and the doctors at Sequoia Hospital were not to blame.The diagnostic level of these doctors has been improving day by day under Zhou Qiao's guidance, and is already considered outstanding among similar hospitals in the United States.

However, modern medicine still requires a lot of experience accumulation, especially in the diagnosis of diseases.

American hospitals, especially those like Sequoia Hospital which are not large in scale and not very well-known, have too few patients.In terms of critical illness alone, the number of patients sent in this wave of chemical plant explosions is equivalent to the usual number of patients for more than half a year or even a year.

The patient was a young man. The chemical plant exploded that night. He escaped in time because he was far away from the center of the incident.The only fly in the ointment was that during the run, I accidentally fell over because I was too fat.

Then there were some minor injuries and swelling on the forehead, face, and wrists.

He was rescued by the rescue team and sent to Sequoia Hospital. Since the injury was minor, the doctor asked the nurse to apply some medicine on him and sent him back.

He originally wanted to be hospitalized, but the doctor directly advised him to go home because there were too many seriously injured people and there were no extra resources to take care of him.

The young man looked at the seriously injured patients in the hospital, including those with missing arms and legs, and those who were burned beyond recognition. He couldn't help but feel very happy.

Who knew that after I returned, as time went by, all the other wounds on my body had healed, or were almost healed, except that there was a small bump on my forehead, about 1 cm x 1 cm, which was still swollen. There is even a faint tendency to increase.

He checked with his family doctor. After understanding the situation, the family doctor told him not to worry. It was just a bag that fell out and it would be fine in a few days.

Maybe, he bumped into it accidentally recently?

Because there are many people like this, they always have bruises and bruises on their bodies inadvertently. If you think about it carefully, you don't know when or where it happened.

Do you suspect a blood disease?I went to the hospital for a checkup and found nothing.

This kind of thing is bumpy, and sometimes I don't even notice it.

As a result, more than a month later, the swelling in the small bag still did not subside.

The young man was a little panicked now, thinking that there seemed to be a top celebrity in Sequoia Hospital, and the trauma was initially treated at their home, so he rushed over in a hurry, not knowing that the legendary top celebrity was still there. Are you there?

Fortunately, Zhou Qiao hasn't left yet.

When the young man saw such a young top celebrity, he thought the hospital had deceived him and found him the wrong person.

After repeated confirmation, the nurse also told him that this was Dr. Zhou, a well-known expert in the United States.Dr. Zhou won the National Young Physician Championship because he is so young.

The young man was doubtful and told Zhou Qiao about his illness again.

He had spoken to many doctors before this.Since he entered the information when he came for treatment more than a month ago, there is no need to fill out any more forms for this visit.

The doctor who treated him also arranged a head CT examination for him.

The imaging report showed that at the location of the small mass on the patient's forehead, patchy low-density shadows were seen in the local plate barrier, with a clear boundary and a size of approximately 6.1 mm × 2.9 mm. The corresponding local skull outer plate was unclearly displayed, the inner plate was thinned, and the adjacent local skull plate was thinned. There is swelling of the soft tissue (near the right eye).

Several doctors discussed it for a while, but could not come to a definite conclusion. They felt that the disease was a bit strange, a bit like a malignant tumor, but not very similar, so they were very cautious and did not dare to draw a conclusion easily.

If you switch to some unscrupulous doctors, such as those from Putian, they will charge you as a malignant tumor first and then take a huge cut, regardless of whether you have a malignant tumor or not.

Moreover, many Putian departments are hidden within some large public hospitals. Many people go there because of the name of the hospital. Who would have expected that they are outsourced?Sometimes losing money is secondary, and the key is physical suffering.

Putian's methods, all kinds of deception and PUA, are hard to guard against, and are similar to electronic fraud.Therefore, when seeking medical treatment in China, you must look for serious public hospitals, such as XX People's Hospital, hospitals affiliated with famous university medical schools, etc.

When the director of the department heard about it, he shrugged and shouted: "While Dr. Zhou is still here, seize this opportunity quickly! In a few days, it may not be convenient to find someone."

After all, when Zhou Qiao returns to San Francisco, he will be busy with various things. Although it is possible to connect remotely, the big boss Luoya doesn’t know whether he will still be in Crystal Mills County by then. If he wants to find someone for guidance, he may not be able to. Get in touch or available.

The head of the department went to see Dean Joachim Langley.

The dean went to contact Zhou Qiao again.

Then, Dr. Zhou arrived at Sequoia Hospital under the protection of Luciana.

Luciana actually liked Zhou Qiao very much, but he was her boss's man, so she didn't dare to have any inappropriate thoughts.And Zhou Qiao can't say anything to black girls.

Although Luciana and Jacqui both have pretty good figures.

After Zhou Qiao arrived, he checked the small mass on the patient's forehead and gently pressed it with his fingers.

This is palpation.

When the pressure was applied, the patient frowned and grimaced, and it was obviously very painful.

"Does it hurt when I don't press it?" Zhou Qiao asked.

The young man said: "It doesn't feel like anything when you don't touch it."

Zhou Qiao nodded. Then, the doctor next to him handed over the CT report. Zhou Qiao turned over it and fell into deep thought.

There was more than one doctor present, and many medical staff were watching, just like a teacher leading students.

After all, this is a very rare opportunity, and every time Dr. Zhou diagnoses a patient, he always hits the nail on the head without making any mistakes.

What is ability?This is called ability.

"Dr. Zhou, how are you?" The doctor beside him couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked.

Zhou Qiao raised his head and glanced at these people and praised: "You are very vigilant and do not treat it as a common disease. It is very good. This disease may be a very rare disease."

"Huh?" "Huh?"

Not only the medical staff who were watching were surprised, but even the young patient was shocked, sweating on his forehead, and asked quickly: "Dr. Zhou, isn't this a terminal illness? I'm still young and haven't found a girlfriend yet. "

Zhou Qiao couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "If you lose more weight, you can have a girlfriend." She can fall down when running away, and her body is so bloated. Which woman has such a unique taste?

Of course, there may be people who really like fat people, but I think they are in the minority.

Seeing Zhou Qiao joking, the patient relaxed and said, "Then it shouldn't be fatal for me."

"Dr. Zhou, what kind of disease is it?" The medical staff couldn't help but be curious and asked humbly.
