Chapter 863 (1/2)

”So, that way, can you confirm the stroke?” Asked the old man. He was a little awkward.

”This is one of the ways. Open your mouth and let me have a look.” Guo Xiang said.

The old man opened his mouth. Sure enough, his tongue couldn't be centered and turned to one side.

There is a possibility of stroke.

”Sir, do you usually have high blood pressure?” Guo Xiang asked while writing the medical record.

”It's a little high. I've been taking medicine.” Aunt helped him.

Guo Xiang nodded. No wonder the blood pressure was not very high just now.

”Now it's suspected that there is a stroke, but it may not be serious. You see, it's just that the tongue is a little biased and swallowing is a little difficult, but there are no symptoms of mouth eye deviation and facial paralysis. Sir, will you be weak? ” Guo Xiang asked again.

”It seems to be ok...” the uncle shook his head.

Guo Xiang nodded. He walked in by himself just now, and his wife didn't help him. When he left, he didn't seem to have his hands and feet leaning to one side.

”We still need to do a CT to take a picture of the brain to make sure.” Guo Xiang said.

”Then do it.” Aunt nodded. It's all like this. You should always know whether it's good for treatment.

Guo Xiang gave an order and asked the old man to have a CT. When the results were taken, he didn't have a stroke.

But generally speaking, stroke is intracerebral hemorrhage, just like the porphyria patient before.

But without cerebral hemorrhage, another possibility is cerebral infarction.

”Is cerebral infarction also a stroke?” Asked the aunt.

”Yes, it's one of them. Intracerebral hemorrhage is that the blood vessels have burst and the blood flow comes out on the brain tissue, which oppresses and stimulates the brain tissue, resulting in cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, a series of dysfunction and, in serious cases, death. ”

”Cerebral infarction is that the blood vessels in the brain are too narrow and blocked, the blood can't flow, and the oxygen can't pass through. Some tissues in the brain will necrosis due to ischemia and hypoxia, resulting in some dysfunction.”

”But we can't find it by CT now. It may take a day for some necrotic brain tissue to be seen. Or do an MRI tomorrow, that is, an MRI, so you can see more clearly. ” Guo Xiang said.

”That's going to be hospitalized?” The aunt glanced at her wife.

”It's best to be hospitalized, or in case the situation is bad, you can rescue it in time.” Guo Xiang said.

”Then live.” Aunt nodded. She was also afraid. If she had a stroke, she must have no way at home. What if something happened in time?

The old man was admitted to the hospital. Because he had difficulty swallowing, he was given some nutrient solution, otherwise he was too hungry to stand.

Then he gave some commonly used drugs for cerebral infarction.

The next day, when Guo Xiang went to the ward round, he found that the old man's situation was more serious. He couldn't drink the water. He even struggled to open his mouth. The whole person was very weak, and his hands and feet seemed to have little strength.

Hurriedly pushed the old man to do an MRI. As soon as the results were checked, he was surprised.

No, nothing, no cerebral hemorrhage, no cerebral infarction.

The blood test is normal, and the blood lipid is not high.

What's going on?

Guo Xiang called Xing Ming and Xu Wei together for consultation.

Tell the patient's symptoms. It's easy to choke, swallow and LISP when drinking water. Now it's even difficult to open your mouth. What's the reason?

”It must have something to do with nerves. It's all controlled by nerves.” Xu Wei said.
