Pregnant with a boyfriend, taking poison for ten days and then washing the stomach, is this considered "strange"?

Daily Q&A

Strive to answer one question every day

“

Someone asked: Can you tell us about the strange things you have encountered recently?

In fact, I have always been hostile to the word strange.

Because I always feel that it is pejorative and even insulting.

The so-called strange thing refers to the existence of certain things, which are beyond our conventional understanding and make us feel unreasonable and unacceptable.

That's my own understanding of the strange.

However, these strange things in our eyes may only be reasonable for the parties concerned, but it is only because our three views and understandings are different.

For example, not long ago, I met a young female patient in the emergency room who came to the hospital for five hours because of abdominal pain.

The patient was still a little girl, eighteen or nineteen years old, a student at a nearby college.

Because patients have lower abdominal pain and menopause, certain gynecological conditions should be considered, including pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy.

Accompanying the patient to the hospital was his boyfriend, an equally young lad.

The two young men had no objection to the examination treatment.

Soon the ultrasound results came out, not only as simple as acute appendicitis, but also pregnant status.

In other words, the little girl was pregnant and had acute appendicitis.

Of course, this must be paid attention to, and must be dealt with in time, otherwise it will also cause the progression of the disease and even affect the fetus.

However, the most intractable problem is not acute appendicitis, but the fact of pregnancy, because patients ask for confidentiality, confidentiality to anyone.

She politely and carefully told me not to let her boyfriend know.

Since the parties have such a request, it is natural to carry out it "quietly".

A few days ago, I received a middle-aged man.

Looking worried, he told me that he had taken poison and now he couldn't die, so he came to the hospital to see if he could wash his stomach.

Gastric lavage is also an indication, not all drug poisoning come up to a stomach wash, to see what is taken, how long, to choose what gastric lavage, to assess the risk of gastrointestinal perforation, gastric bleeding.

The patient told me that what he had eaten was a poison purchased from the Internet, the seed of a plant.

It's unclear what exactly is, because patients can't provide specific purchase information.

In fact, it doesn't matter what the patient is taking, because he tried to commit suicide by taking poison ten days ago.

No matter what the "poison", after taking it for ten days before coming to the hospital, it is obvious that the time for gastric lavage has been missed, because the emptying time of the stomach is only a few hours.

The absorption of the early absorption, the onset of the disease has also been onset.

So far, the patients have remained unharmed except for some psychological worries.

I asked him, why didn't you come to the hospital earlier, now it's the tenth day, and you only want to come to the hospital?

He told me: I just remembered now that I should come to the hospital to see.

Later, I still checked the patient's basic liver and kidney function, and after finding no problems, I comforted him a few words and let him go home.

In fact, for this patient, this so-called poison may be a fake drug at all, and there is no major physical problem, but the most need to intervene is a mental and psychological problem.

After taking the medicine for ten days, I came to the hospital to ask for gastric lavage, which some people thought was a strange thing.

But I don't want to use the word "strange" to describe it, because you don't know what other people have experienced behind the "strange thing".
