Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651: Chapter 299: Perhaps This Is the Final Companionship, Saving a Life

He already got married, and his life should have been very happy.

He’s not that old, only in his forties.

When the illness struck, he was only about twenty-six or twenty-seven, the prime of his life.

Being called a useless person by his wife is not unjustified.

"From the current test results, it seems that his issues are caused by low potassium, right? Is potassium supplementation ineffective?"

Li Jingsheng turned to ask Director Kuo.

Discussing the patient’s condition in the ward, he had no choice but to speak his mind.

He meant no disrespect to Director Kuo’s medical skills.

"Since he was admitted last night and the issue was identified, we have already administered potassium and fluids, but the effect is negligible. In my nearly thirty years of practice, I’ve never seen a case like this."

Director Kuo seemed helpless.

Despite identifying the patient’s cause, and the symptoms being obvious, under normal circumstances, potassium supplementation should yield results quickly.

However, this patient’s situation is extraordinarily unique.

After potassium supplementation, it was like throwing a stone into the sea.

Oxygen therapy seemed to have no improvement on respiratory symptoms.

The problem is ten times more severe than imagined.

"Let me listen to the heart sounds!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jingsheng’s expression became instantly serious, with a hint of gravity.

Based on his keen judgment developed from his clinic experience, if not handled properly, this patient’s condition might deteriorate rapidly with a risk of death.

After listening to the patient’s heart sounds, his expression became even graver.

"Are you feeling chest tightness now?"

"Yes! Like several mountains are pressing down, and when I breathe, it’s like my nose is blocked."

The patient said.

"Director Kuo, let’s talk outside!"

Li Jingsheng looked at the woman; the family could listen too.

The woman was still engrossed in her phone, reluctant to follow along.

She showed complete indifference to her husband’s condition.

"Let’s talk in your office!"

Li Jingsheng looked at Director Kuo.

"I don’t have a private office, we can discuss in the doctor’s office or the consultation room."

Director Kuo’s old face flushed.

Some deputy chief physicians at the Second Hospital, doing slightly better, have their own offices.

But as a department director, not having a private office is indeed a bit embarrassing.

Li Jingsheng has long experienced the harshness of hospitals.
