Chapter 532: Trembling Eyeballs

Perhaps, extremely severe anemia can lead to muscle weakness or even muscle atrophy.

However, when encountering this situation, Lu Chen felt that the first diagnosis that flashed in his mind should not be pure red blood cell aplasia. . .

Maybe there could be other diseases that are closer?

"What's wrong, do you have any questions?" Yu Liqian looked at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen shook his head gently, "No, thank you teacher."

Although he had some doubts, it was not established at present, and Lu Chen could not provide any actual evidence.

Lu Chen returned to his seat and continued to read the book.

More than twenty minutes later, Yu Liqian said to Lu Chen again: "Lu Chen, I have finished writing the medical history of bed 3. You take the medical record and go to the patient's family to sign it. Remember to sign a power of attorney."

"OK."

In the Department of Hematology, Lu Chen had not yet written any disease process records.

Normally, after Teacher Yu Liqian writes the record of the disease, it is then given to Lu Chen for the patient’s family to sign.

…

Came to bed No. 3 again.

Lu Chen saw the boy named Xiaotong again.

He was still lying on the bed, his face extremely pale, but his eyes were very bright and blinking, which did not match his pale face.

"Hello, this is the informed consent form that needs to be signed for hospitalization." Lu Chen took the medical record folder and explained to the family members one by one, "This is the disease notification form, the signature of the person who stated the medical history, and no red envelopes will be accepted or given. Agreement..."

The child's parents were very cheerful. They had been hospitalized many times. They didn't read the words on the consent form carefully and signed their names directly.

"Doctor, I would like to ask how much does a bone marrow transplant in our hospital cost?"

After signing the informed consent form, the child's mother asked again.

Lu Chen was also a little hesitant. Although he had been coming to the Department of Hematology for a week, he had almost no clinical contact, and he really didn't know much about the cost issues of Jinghua Second Hospital.

"I don't know the specifics. I'll ask you later. But according to my previous understanding, the cost of a bone marrow transplant is about 100,000 to 200,000." Lu Chen explained.

Bone marrow transplantation, also known as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, is a treatment method that uses intravenous infusion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells to rebuild the patient's normal hematopoietic and immune systems to treat a series of diseases.

Some clinical diseases can be cured radically through bone marrow transplantation.

Beside, the child's mother sighed deeply.

"Oh, I knew it was still so expensive!"

In order to treat their children, they spent nearly 200,000 yuan in recent years. The working families, who were not originally wealthy, have already emptied their wealth and are heavily in debt.

It is almost impossible to spend another 200,000 yuan for a bone marrow transplant.

For a moment, Lu Chen was also a little silent.

When he was signing again just now, he saw the thick stack of more than 200 blood test reports in the luggage of the child's parents.

This seems to record their family’s difficult journey of seeking medical treatment!

The boy's father has always been silent. The medical expenses before and after the bone marrow transplant are like a big mountain on his shoulders.

Squeezing them out of breath.

However, Lu Chen could clearly feel the unwillingness in the eyes of the child's father.

At this moment, the child's father suddenly said: "After this hospitalization, we are going to go back to our hometown and find some relatives and friends to raise money to prepare for a bone marrow transplant."

Although he said that, Lu Chen knew how difficult this journey would be.

If relatives and friends could borrow money, they wouldn't wait until now. I'm afraid they would have borrowed it long ago.

The child's mother could only shake her head helplessly. In her eyes, this seemed to be a dead end.

Where the future will go is still unknown.

The three people talked so quietly that the child could hardly hear what they were talking about.

Or maybe, even if you hear it, you don’t understand it at all.

However, children seem to be able to sense the sadness in their parents' hearts on the surface.

"Dad, Mom..." the child called softly, but still maintained a faint smile on his face.

Even though Lu Chen had seen many separations, life and death, at this moment, he was also a little stunned.

Lu Chen silently put away the medical record folder and prepared to leave the ward and return to the lounge.

However, his peripheral vision suddenly and inadvertently looked into the child's eyes.

He found that the child's eyes seemed to be trembling.

As a doctor who has been working clinically for a long time, Lu Chen can be sure that this is definitely not an illusion!

He quickly stopped, turned his head, and stared at the little boy in front of him.

…

In hospital bed.

The atmosphere was a bit too quiet.

The child's parents were also very surprised. Why was the new doctor in front of them suddenly staring at the child like this?

"Um... Doctor Lu, what's wrong with you?" the child's father said.

Lu Chen didn't look away, still staring at the child carefully, and said, "Look carefully, are the children's eyes trembling?"

As soon as these words came out, the child's parents immediately said in unison: "Yes!"

"It happens occasionally like this." The child's mother added.

Lu Chen frowned, and then said to the kid: "Listen to my brother, stick out your tongue and show me."

The child was very obedient and not as naughty as other four or five year olds. He immediately stuck out his tongue.

A long while.

Lu Chen then said slowly: "Okay, little boy, you did a good job, no need to stick out your tongue."

The child was very obedient and put his tongue in.

"Doctor, is there something wrong?" The child's father asked immediately upon seeing this.

Lu Chen nodded slightly and said, "There may be some problems with the nervous system. To put it simply, his tongue muscles and eyeballs are trembling."

"This, this must have been a while..." The boy's father paused.

it's been a while?

This sentence aroused Lu Chen's vigilance.

So, besides these two positive neurological signs, is there anything else?

Lu Chen lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said to the child's father: "Next, I will do a simple neurological examination on the child to see if there are any other problems."

"Okay!" The child's father did not refuse and immediately nodded in agreement.

Under the current situation, he wanted to seize every possibility, without any concern that Lu Chen was just a rotating graduate student, not a formal doctor. UU reading www. uukanshu． net

Lu Chen did not hesitate and immediately walked to the bedside and began to conduct a series of neurological examinations on the child.

In about five minutes, the inspection was completed.

Sure enough, this allowed Lu Chen to find something abnormal.

He found that the child's tendon reflexes were very weak or could not be elicited at all!

Lu Chen's brows immediately furrowed into the character "Chuan".

This is so abnormal!

A central brain injury should not make a child's tendon reflexes weaken or disappear for too long, and a peripheral brain injury should not make his eyeballs and tongue muscles tremble.

With so many strange neurological signs, the child also had muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, and aplastic anemia.

Is this caused by the same disease?

Or are they just two diseases? 16377/10079539
