Treating the Same Illness Differently

Actually, Li Jinghao was in the wrong. Bringing people to someone's door so abruptly would make anyone unhappy.

Yu Xiushui was getting on in years, but Li Jinghao hadn't informed her, so she assumed Li Jinghao was coming for a follow-up appointment. It wasn't until she arrived downstairs that she learned her nephew had brought two doctors.

However, Li Jinghao meant well. He didn't believe in traditional Chinese medicine before, but now he does. He thought that since this thing is so good, why not promote it to these two directors and let these two purely Western doctors experience real traditional Chinese medicine? Wouldn't that be a good thing?

Li Jinghao never expected that these two directors, despite their advanced age, would speak like simpletons, their directness making it seem as if they were there to challenge him.

The young man who hadn't said much at the door Li Tongle. Since he was there for a medical consultation, Su Ziyang wasn't bothered at all and invited Li Tongle to sit down on the chair next to the examination table.

"Auntie, your knees aren't good, please don't stand. There's a bed over there, please sit down."

Su Ziyang didn't forget to greet Aunt Yu Xiushui. Actually, Aunt Yu Xiushui was never shy when she came over; she would just sit down on her own.

Su Ziyang's care for Yu Xiushui was purely to annoy the two of them.

Su Ziyang touched the young man's hand and found it slightly cold. He then took the pulse with three fingers on his pulse diagnosis kit.

The two department heads who had been embarrassed by Su Ziyang's actions were no longer awkward when they saw him taking their pulse. They stepped forward, wanting to see more closely how Su Ziyang diagnosed patients.

As mentioned earlier, Li Tongle also has gallstones. However, Li Tongle's pulse is completely different from Li Jinghao's.

Li Tongle's pulse was generally weak and feeble, especially the radial pulse, which was particularly deep.

"Your gallstones aren't too painful. You might feel a little bloated after eating greasy food. Your main symptoms are diarrhea, poor appetite, a cold stomach, cold hands and feet, and lower back pain."

If you tell a purely Western doctor that there is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner who can diagnose illnesses by taking pulses, he will just laugh.

Hearing is unreliable, seeing is believing.

The two directors weren't laughing anymore; they were stunned!

The two exchanged glances, both showing expressions of confusion.

This Li Tongle is not actually Li Jinghao's classmate; he is a patient who came to their clinic today.

Even Aunt Yu Xiushui didn't know who this Li Tongle was, but since he looked about the same age as Li Jinghao, everyone believed him when Li Jinghao said so.

Su Ziyang described the symptoms, and Li Tongle was stunned.

"Doctor, should I take some herbal medicine?"

When they arrived, Li Jinghao told them that Su Ziyang could diagnose the illness without them having to speak. Now, Li Jinghao's words have come true one by one, and Li Tongle is the most excited.

If there were any other way, who would want to cut themselves in the stomach, even a minimally invasive one, it's still a hole!

"Hmm. I suggest you take some herbal medicine."

Su Ziyang patted Li Tongle's hand, indicating that he could put his hand down.

"Doctor, should I get some acupuncture? I heard from Li Jinghao that your acupuncture skills are amazing."

Li Tongle hadn't forgotten what Li Jinghao had told them on the way here—about Su Ziyang's miraculous pain-relieving needles.

"Haha, no need. No need. You'll be fine after taking some traditional Chinese medicine. Is that alright?"

Su Ziyang said with a smile.

"Alright! We'll have the herbal medicine then. Come on! Come on! Open it!"

Su Ziyang entered Li Tongle's information and then prescribed the medicine.

This prescription is called Aconite Decoction to Regulate the Middle.

It is a modified version of Decoction to Regulate the Middle with the addition of Aconitum carmichaelii.

Decoction to Regulate the Middle, as the name suggests, means to regulate and soothe the middle burner (middle burner).

Adding aconite is to invigorate kidney yang.

Prepared aconite root 8g (decoct first)

15g of Codonopsis pilosula

15g of roasted licorice root

15g of Atractylodes macrocephala

15g of dried ginger

7 pay.

Li Tongle only needs to regulate the middle burner (middle burner) to eliminate all the symptoms, without the need for special medications. As for the specific fossil medicine, Pteris vittata Su Ziyang prescribed it separately; all that's needed is to steep it in water and drink it.

Li Tongle thanked Su Ziyang profusely and ran downstairs to pay for the medicine.

When the two department heads saw their patient run away, they quickly followed him downstairs.

"Hey, Li Tongle, you're not going to have the surgery?"

The two men stopped Li Tongle and asked in a low voice.

Li Tongle excitedly shook hands with the two doctors. "Thank you both so much. This doctor is a miracle worker! I'll try the traditional Chinese medicine first. I'm really scared of surgery. That's all for now, I'm going to queue up to have my medicine prepared."

The two directors were even more bewildered. Not only had they been scolded upon arrival, but now their "spies" had also betrayed them.

The two were quite frustrated. Zhang Yu sighed and said, "What the hell is going on? This young man is too arrogant. Yes, I'm not very famous, but you're a hepatobiliary surgeon in our city! This..."

Song Liangtao sighed, "This guy is really skilled. Just by taking his pulse, he diagnosed nine-tenths of Li Tongle's illness. He's no ordinary person. How about this, let's arrange to meet him after work!"

"Director Song, I think we shouldn't bother with him. Li Jinghao's illness might just be a coincidence. I don't believe Li Tongle could recover so completely." Zhang Yu was still a little skeptical; he felt that Li Jinghao must have been in league with Su Ziyang.

"I think it's unlikely we can get through this. Li Tongle is our new patient today. How could this 'Hao' know Li Tongle had diarrhea? That's impossible. Let's go back first, I'll find out what's going on at this clinic. I'll arrange a meeting with this young man! Interesting!"

Song Liangtao's composure improved somewhat, and he left with Zhang Yu, frowning.

"Doctor Su, please don't be angry. Xiao Haozi didn't handle this matter well."

After everyone left, Aunt Yu Xiushui explained to Su Ziyang, feeling embarrassed.

"Hey, why would I be angry? I just don't really like those two."

Su Ziyang smiled and waved his hand, Qianli cold and aloof demeanor just moments before.

Li Jinghao wanted to explain further, but Su Ziyang waved his hand. "No need to say anything, I know. You want to promote traditional Chinese medicine, I understand your good intentions. That person isn't your classmate, you two aren't related, I know that too. Okay! Okay! It's alright!"

"As long as you all get better, I'll be happier than if I drank honey. Hahaha, it's nothing."

Su Ziyang stood up and stretched; he had been putting on too much of a show.

"Look at Dr. Doctor Su, and look at you! You're such a grown man, yet you act like a child!"

Yu Xiushui teased her nephew a couple more times, and Su Ziyang laughed, "It's alright, Auntie. You've introduced so many patients to me, we're practically old acquaintances. It's nothing, just a kind gesture. Understanding is everything!"

Yu Xiushui nodded and left with Li Jinghao.
