Chapter 236 Somatoform Disorders
Somatoform Disorders.
Looking at the six words on the screen, Xia Tian was stunned for a moment. With his knowledge of medicine, he had never had a deep understanding of this disease, and only knew a simple meaning.
Somatoform disorder is a mental illness.
The patient believes that he is sick, and various medical examinations and doctor's persuasion cannot dispel his doubts.
Moreover, severe somatoform disorders can really feel the pain of the disease when they are onset.
long.
It will cause abnormal functions of the patient's digestion, breathing, cardiovascular, nervous system, etc., as well as anxiety, depression and other problems.
know what's wrong.
But...how to deal with it?
Summer is a bit confusing.
When he was in school, he studied clinical medicine, and the system presented him with experience in surgery.
Is somatoform disorder a psychiatry?
After a few seconds of hesitation.
Xia Tian said to his grandmother: "Grandma, take a rest, I'll go to the bathroom."
"it is good."
Grandma nodded.
Summer ran out with a cell phone.
After finding a place where no one was, Xia Xia called Han Meiji.
beep...
The phone rang for ten seconds.
Han Meiji's hoarse voice came.
"Give you a minute to explain why you woke me up."
"If there is no reasonable reason, I will kill you at work the day after tomorrow."
cough cough...
Xia Xia was embarrassed for a while, Han Meiji didn't get off work until after two o'clock, and now it is after four o'clock, just fell asleep, and was woken up by Xia Xia again.
"I'm sorry, Doctor Han."
"There is a patient, 68 years old, with somatoform disorder. How can this disease be treated?"
As soon as she heard about the somatoform disorder, Han Meiji immediately became interested.
The whole person woke up a lot.
"How did you diagnose somatoform disorder?"
"This disease is difficult to diagnose, and a lot of data and mental identification are needed."
I have hung up!
Xia Xia made a random excuse to put it off: "I just read this article. In addition, my grandmother was hospitalized in Beijing Xiehe before, and the doctor there also diagnosed the disease."
"It doesn't matter how the diagnosis is made, what should I do now?"
"The patient is still in the emergency department."
Han Meiji said quietly: "This disease is a mental disease and cannot be cured by surgery."
"Has the patient already had phantom pains?"
Xia Tian nodded: "Appeared."
"That's troublesome..."
With the sound of getting up on the other end of the phone, Han Meiji got up from the bed and opened a book.
she said.
"Somatoform disorder, the early symptoms are relatively simple, the patient suspects that he is sick, and once the phantom pain occurs, it is difficult to change."
"You say the patient is 68 years old?"
Xia Xia said: "Yes, and the patient just had phantom pain. Her clothes were soaked all over her body, her face was pale, her heart rate increased, and she looked extremely painful."
Hey……
Han Meiji let out a long sigh.
"Once phantom pain occurs, the patient may suffer for life. Even with the assistance of a psychiatrist, it is very difficult to recover."
"The pain has penetrated the patient's entire body."
"Based on what I know about somatoform disorders, it takes more than ten years to treat. You said that the patient is 68 years old. She may have to fight the disease for the rest of her life."
The rest of your life? ? ?
Obviously a healthy old man, when he is enjoying the happiness, he has to spend the last period of his life fighting against the disease?
This……
Too bad, right?
Summer is unbearable.
"I don't have any medicine, can I dispel her doubts?" Han Meiji on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and then said faintly.
"North America Scone Research Institute, once did an experiment."
"Give a bottle of painkiller to body dysmorphic disorder. Take one when you experience phantom pain, and it will relieve the pain. In fact, the drug is not a painkiller, but a common vitamin, but the patient is convinced of the painkiller. The situation improved immediately."
"Patients with somatoform disorders have a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder in their hearts, and they will generally be firm after they identify one thing."
"So...you can do it this way."
This……
Seems like a good idea too.
In the patient's cognition, vitamin tablets are pain relievers, and they will not hurt after taking them.
Phantom pain can be avoided.
Long-term use of the drug will not have any physical effects.
Although it is a form of deception, it can allow patients to spend the rest of their lives comfortably.
It's also a white lie.
However, after all, this is deceitful behavior and violates the guidelines of doctors.
"let me consider it."
"Doctor Han, rest."
Just as Xia Xia was about to hang up the phone, she heard Han Meiji angrily say: "Wake me up and let me sleep again, do you think I'm a robot?"
"I unplugged the power and fell asleep immediately?"
"Then what should I do?" Xia Xia said, "How about you wait for me to go to sleep with you after get off work?"
Han Meiji: "Hehe...you think it's so beautiful."
Xia Tian: "What if you don't?"
"Anyway, you can't sleep either. Why don't you just come to the emergency room to go to work. If you go to work, I will go back to sleep, and I will be able to sleep."
Han Meiji: "Bastard!"
beep...
She hung up the phone, Xia Xia smiled, and returned to the emergency room.
now.
A gray-haired old man showed up in the emergency room. The uncle was wearing pajamas and had a panicked face, obviously frightened.
Grandma was comforting him.
"I'm fine."
"I saw that you were sound asleep, so I didn't call you and went to the emergency room by myself."
"It's much better now."
When the uncle saw Xia Xia coming in, he quickly stepped forward and asked Xia Xia.
"Doctor, how is my wife?"
"Can't find the cause yet?"
Summer tangled for a while, and said to the uncle.
"Master, let's take a step to talk."
"this way please."
Xia Xia took the uncle to the dressing room and briefly introduced the physical dysfunction.
The uncle was stunned for a while after hearing this.
"You mean, my wife is not sick? Is it a disease she imagined?"
"Yes."
"That's great." The uncle sighed in relief, with a smile on his face: "It's good that she's not sick. I'm really worried that she's sick."
Summer frowned slightly.
Many people think that mental illness is not a disease, but in fact, mental illness is more painful than normal illness. In addition to physical pain that cannot be relieved, there is also a layer of mental torment.
Many mentally ill people prefer that they are really sick, at least they know what is going on and how to treat them.
Even if it can't be cured, I will admit it.
But with mental illness, you have to live in doubt all the time.
Physical and mental torture.
In the summer, I talked with my uncle about vitamin drugs as painkillers.
"That might ease Grandma's pain."
"But this method, after all, is to deceive the patient and requires the patient's guardian, her husband, that is, you, to sign and agree."
"You can prescribe medicine only after you agree."
The uncle was stunned, looking at Xia Xia's embarrassed way.
"I'm not her husband."
"Not her guardian."
wipe……
Who are you then?
