9 All The Signs Point To... (2/2)

Li Xiuying: ”When did the pain start?

Qin Zhen: ”3 hours ago.”

Li Xiuying: ”Where is the pain?”

Qin zhen: ”All over my tummy.”

Everyone was silent as Li Xiuying continued to ask questions and little 4th answered in a weak voice.

After 2 minutes and 58 seconds One and Two came back in the room with all the equipment.

Li Xiuying:”Qin Zhen I'm going to have to look at your tummy now. If it hurts anywhere or feels uncomfortable let me know.”

Li Xiuying started doing a full abdominal examination.

Li Xiuying mumbled to herself: ”Mcburney's sign present, positive Rovsing sign” .

Li Xiuying opened Qin Zhen's medical records that were at the end of his bed. She took a blank piece of paper and the pen attached to the folder. She began to write something. Moments later she handed it to Two.

Li Xiuying:”You have 2 minutes.” Two sprinted out.

Li Xiuying did an ultrasound, whilst One took bloods.

One carried out vital observations after the urine sample was collected. He sent the urine sample along with the bloods to the labs.

.....

Qin Xian Jun had finished his phone call and was sitting beside little 4th again. His eyes burning with rage, shooting daggers at Dr. Fu Meng and Dr. Cheng Wu.

The results were back. One and Two stood in front of Li Xiuying who was scanning through several pieces of paper.

Li Xiuying looked up from the results.

Li Xiuying: ”One and Two. What is the diagnosis and treatment for someone who has widespread abdominal pain, Mcburney's sign, positive Rovsing sign, raised temperature, raised WBC, especially neutrophilia and raised CRP?”

They both answered in unison: ”Acute appendicitis, laparoscopic appendectomy.”

Dr. Fu Meng and Dr. Cheng Wu started wishing that the ground would swallow them whole.
