Chapter 382 Breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly
"You heard it right." Tao Le's tone remained unchanged: "Acupuncture here can cure this disease."
When she said this, Tang Wan didn't believe it at all. But Jian Yuying believed it.
She was desperate and sought medical treatment. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, no matter how outrageous the treatment method was, let alone acupuncture, she would believe it as long as it could save her daughter.
"Doctor, how long will acupuncture take?" she asked, her eyes filled with sparkling light.
"I will be at the Renhe Free Clinic for a week. During this week, you will come here for acupuncture every day."
Such a serious illness cannot be cured in seven days. Tao Le pondered for a moment:
"I will return to Yun City in seven days. If it is convenient, you can come over."
Hearing this, Logan suddenly understood something.
Doctors don't make any money at free clinics here.
But after I went back, it was hard to say.
Tell them a big story first to lure them in, and then they will follow her back for treatment regardless. By then, she will only have to spend a few courses of treatment, but she doesn’t know how much it will cost.
She pulled on Jian Yuying's clothes and shook her head.
Whatever Tang Wan could think of, Jian Yuying would naturally want it too. But she didn't want to let go of this life-saving straw.
"It's okay, Expert Tao. As long as it can be cured, we will go back with you for treatment! There is no problem with the treatment fee. Don't look at us wearing simple clothes, but we still have a small house at home!"
"I sold my house and I can raise the money for treatment no matter what!"
Jian Yuying's face turned red and her heart was full of fighting spirit.
This house is her support and confidence.
A house of nearly 70 square meters in Beijing, and it is in a school district, would definitely be enough to sell for 6 to 7 million.
As long as my daughter can really be cured, none of this will matter!
"Mom, don't sell the house. I'm going to die and I don't want acupuncture." Tang Wan hugged Jian Yuying and tears rolled down her eyes.
Tao Le was stunned for a moment before he figured out what they meant, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Don't get me wrong." She said: "I am here for free clinic, even if I go back to Yun City, I will give you acupuncture for free."
"Don't charge a cent until the disease is cured."
"Is what you said true?" Jian Yuying felt that her throat was dry and her voice was rough and sharp.
"The effects of treatment cannot be told, you can feel it yourself."
Tao Le chose Guanyuan, Sanyinjiao, Taibai, Shenque points, as well as Chize, Yinlingquan, Yanglingquan, Shousanli and Zusanli.
The patient has been ill for a long time and has taken hormones for a long time, which has caused fatigue in the meridians. Therefore, the acupoints related to the diseased meridians are first used to regulate the Qi mechanism, and then warm Yang and Qi can be replenished.
Well, the most important thing is that no matter how you choose the acupoint, if you want to cure it completely, you have to rely on golden fingers.
Tao Le placed the needle on the Guanyuan point, and the golden finger's prompt came:
Please select a treatment plan:
A. Treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus. Number of treatments required: 7 times, each time increasing health value by 6 points.
B. Treatment of hormonal cataracts. Number of treatments required: 3 times, each time increasing health value by 5 points.
C. Treat Cushing's syndrome. Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health by 4 points.
D. Treatment of lupus nephritis. Number of treatments required: 3 times, each time increasing health value by 4 points.
E. Treat protein-losing enteropathy. Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health value by 3 points.
F. Treat pseudo-intestinal obstruction. Number of treatments required: 1 time, increase health value by 3 points.
There are thousands of roads, but the first one is to treat the root cause. Tao Le chose "A".
"Start treatment for systemic lupus erythematosus. Countdown to five minutes. 299 seconds, 298 seconds."
When the countdown ends, a sweet prompt sounds: "The treatment is completed, the patient's health value is increased by 6 points, and the acupuncture increases the health value by an additional 1 point, and the total health value is increased by 7 points."
"In this treatment, a total of 6 points of pathogens were absorbed, and the equivalent value was converted into life source energy. The current balance of life source energy is 6 points. Do you want to infuse it back into the patient? Yes/No."
Tao Le thought for a while and chose "No."
Regarding the source of life energy, she has some new thoughts recently.
Normally, if the patient's disease is cured, they can live a long life.
However, it is definitely impossible for a normal person to live to the maximum life span. For example, as Goldfinger mentioned before, using life source energy can increase the life of a first-level creature to 150 years.
Therefore, this kind of life source energy transformed by pathogens is actually quite mysterious.
She planned to wait until the patient's disease was completely cured before studying whether and how much transfusion should be given.
Tang Wan was sweating profusely and stood up to put on her clothes, feeling a sense of relief that she had not seen for a long time.
Within a few minutes of acupuncture, she felt warm and comfortable all over her body, and her fever also subsided.
The chest tightness, hypochondriac pain, and nausea and vomiting that had always plagued her seemed to have faded away now.
Is acupuncture so effective for lupus erythematosus?
"Expert Tao, I feel very good, just like before I got sick. Thank you." She tried her best to express her gratitude.
In fact, she has almost forgotten how she felt when she was free from illness and pain.
"Don't worry, I said, stick to the treatment and you will recover." Tao Le comforted her gently.
"Thank you, Doctor Tao!" Jian Yuying was overjoyed. She did not expect that just one acupuncture session could make her daughter feel so comfortable. This greatly enhanced her confidence in Tao Le.
When she got home, it was almost noon. The porridge she had cooked in the morning was still warm, so she immediately took out a bowl and quickly fried a small tofu to serve with her daughter.
Logan picked up the bowl and took a deep breath.
She always felt nauseated after eating anything, which made her even more uncomfortable after eating, but she had to eat.
But today's bowl of porridge seems to be more fragrant than before.
Even the ordinary fried tofu becomes more delicious.
Tang Wan drank a small bowl of porridge, but did not feel any discomfort.
If there was any problem, it was that she didn't seem to have enough to eat.
"Mom, is there any more porridge? I want another bowl."
"Yes, yes!" Jian Yuying hurriedly walked into the kitchen, wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with one hand, and grabbed the rice spoon with the other.
How long has it been since her daughter asked for extra food? She can’t even remember. It’s great to be like today.
After eating, Logan felt tired for a long time.
When Jian Yuying packed her things and entered the house, she saw that her daughter was already fast asleep. The early winter sun shone on the bed, adding a little more warmth to the small room.
A smile appeared on her face, then she opened her phone and found a WeChat group.
"Become a butterfly out of cocoon".
Although the name sounds nice, it is actually a communication group for lupus patients.
There are hundreds of people in the group, all patients with various degrees of lupus erythematosus and their family members.
We usually exchange treatment experiences and disease progress here, and also help each other, care and encourage each other.
Over the years, this group has become her spiritual support.
She thought for a while, then explained the situation of taking Logan to the doctor today, and then emphasized:
"Expert Tao said that she can cure lupus erythematosus with acupuncture. Do you want to try it too?"
Her words were like a drop of water falling into oil, causing an uproar in the group.
