Chapter 618
Almost half an hour.
The patient hurried back again.
"Doctor, help me see!" The patient who came back nervously handed Lin Feng a head X-ray.
After placing the reading machine.
Lin Feng's brows finally stretched.
X-ray of the head: without any calcifications.
Lin Feng chuckled.
"Don't worry! There are so many cysticerci on the body, and the result is that there is no calcification foci on the head, which is really lucky! "
Hearing Lin Feng's answer, the patient's hanging heart also fell.
Hurriedly said: "Doctor, what should I do now?" "
"Surgery!" Lin Feng said immediately.
"Surgery? Parasites, how is this operated? The patient wondered.
According to some of the information he has learned before, the presence of parasites on the body should not be to take anthelmintic drugs, or rub any ointment!
Children repel roundworms, isn't it just taking medicine!

"Let me explain it to you! First of all, X-rays are only more sensitive to these calcified lesions and can make them clear development. The absence of calcification lesions on the head does not mean that there is no cysticerci in the head, and further testing is needed to rule it out! Lin Feng said solemnly.
"Doctor, there is no way to confirm it on X-rays! Do you still need to go for a CT scan? What if CT can't detect it? The patient said anxiously.
"This is indeed the case! Parasites such as cysticerci are very difficult to diagnose, especially those deep in the brain! But if there are parasites in the brain, the consequences can be very serious. It can cause epilepsy, tuberculous meningitis, cryptococcal meningitis, viral meningitis and other diseases, and will also appear intracranial pressure, meningeal irritation signs and other symptoms, which will be fatal! If CT can't detect it, if you are really worried, then I recommend you to go for MRI, that is, cranial magnetic resonance imaging! Lin Feng solemnly explained to the patient.
The doctor on duty on the side was dumbfounded.
He began to suspect that this was Lin Feng deliberately fooling the patient, wanting him to pay more for the examination.
But think of Dr. Lin's net worth of hundreds of millions, and this amount of money is not bad.
"What? So serious! The patient immediately exclaimed, and then quickly said: "Doctor, I do surgery, I do CT!" Do it now! "
Compared to small lives, everything is something outside the body!
Especially from the words that came out of the mouth of Lin Feng, the doctor, where did he dare not believe it!
"If you want! Rest assured, maybe you don't have cysticerci in your brain at all! Lin Feng said with relief.
"Did you have epilepsy or something before?"
"Or sudden dizziness..."
"It's a matter of the head anyway, is there?"
The patient shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no..."
Lin Feng nodded.
In fact, I do not think that the patient has cysticerci on the head, because the patient does not have any obvious symptoms at all, and it is still in such a serious situation.
But it's better to be careful, or to rule it out.
In case there really is!
That would delay the patient!
Even if he was misunderstood by the patient, Lin Feng didn't matter.
This is nothing compared to life.
Immediately.
The patient took the checklist in Lin Feng's hand and left in a hurry.
"Doctor Lin, this cysticerci can't be so serious! The patient's brain did not find calcification lesions of cysticerci, and the patient did not have any symptoms of cysticerci in the brain, I think it is possible to do CT! The doctor on duty on the side said with a chuckle.
"!!" Lin Feng immediately shouted:
"Is this what you should say as a doctor?"
"You can't use what I think, nor can you rely on this unreliable experience to make decisions!"
"We have to inform the patient of everything possible, and then the patient decides whether to do the test or not."
"Your mentality is very bad, and things are easy to happen!"
See Lin Feng seriously!
The doctor on duty hurriedly echoed, "Yes, Dr. Lin." I see, there will never be such a mentality again! "
It didn't take a while.
The patient returned again, beads of sweat already on his forehead.
After coming in, he hurriedly said: "Dr. Lin, the doctor in the CT room over there said that the CT results have been sent to you!" "
Hearsay.
Lin Feng hurriedly turned on the computer.
Sure enough, I saw the documents sent from the CT room.
Then click to view.
After seeing the situation above, Lin Feng said softly: "There is no abnormality, no cysticerci were found on it. Based on your body's current reactions, cysticercosis, you can basically rule out cysticercosis. If you think it's not accurate enough, I can give you an MRI list to line up, and when the results come out, you can rule it out 100%... Of course, this one is more expensive, you think about it clearly! "
"Dr. Lin, how accurate is this CT?" The patient asked softly.
"The accuracy rate can be said to be very high! CYSTICERCI SMALLER THAN 1CM CAN BE PHOTOGRAPHED! Lin Feng said softly.
"Okay, then don't do it!" The patient said after a moment of struggle.
"Hmm! So let's talk about your treatment! Lin Feng said.
"Doctor Lin, you say! I listen to you! The patient said with a smile.
"My advice is to have surgery to remove cysticerci from your subcutaneous tissue or muscles! You can rest assured, this is just a small operation, there is no harm to the body, just a little more cumbersome! Of course, if you want to choose to use medication, there is no problem! Lin Feng said softly.
Without waiting for the patient to answer, Lin Feng continued: "However, I want to tell you first. If you use medication, the side effects are quite large! "
"Treatment of cysticerci is now basically using three drugs, albendazole, praziquantel, and mebendazole."
"After taking albendazole, there may be gastrointestinal discomfort, headache, fever and other adverse effects, long-term use will also cause abnormal liver function, severe hair loss!"
"If you take praziquantel, it may cause strong inflammation and worsen existing symptoms!"
"If you take mebendazole, there is a high risk of mild dizziness, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, or abdominal pain or vomiting, and this medicine can cause fetal malformations, so it cannot be used on pregnant women!"
After explaining all the situation clearly, Lin Feng waited for the patient's own choice.
Hesitated for a long time.
The patient slowly spoke, "Doctor Lin, what you said is not true. Surgery, it's just a minor operation, it won't hurt me much? "
"Of course!" Lin Feng nodded.
However, there are cysticerci in the subcutaneous tissue and muscles, and they will not open the stomach at all, of course, it is a minor operation.
It just can be a bit cumbersome, depending on the number of cysticerci on the patient and the number of calcified lesions.
This is a delicate task, which is more time-consuming and laborious.
"Good! Dr. Lin, then listen to you! I had surgery! After receiving confirmation, the patient said immediately.
