63-year-old Zhu Lin (pseudonym) narrowed his eyes and looked at the physical examination report on his mobile phone, feeling entangled.
report is very dazzling: the three results of
Myocardial infarction were abnormal, and myoglobin and troponin were slightly increased.
This is Zhu Lin’s second time to have three tests for myocardial infarction. The last time was two months ago, and the same prompted abnormality.
Zhu Lin was embarrassed that the community was blocked and it was inconvenient to seek medical treatment:
"Do you need to have coronary angiography?" "Do you have to ask another doctor?"
Two months ago
"The indicator is only slightly elevated, is it a myocardial infarction?" The doctor at the
physical examination center shook his head and told Zhu Lin that many reasons may lead to abnormalities in the three indicators of myocardial infarction, such as transient coronary artery spasm , such as excessive exercise, but the safest thing is to do coronary angiography. If it is found on the operating table, perform stent surgery immediately.
Want to go to the operating table? Maybe install a bracket? Zhu Lin instinctively resisted this suggestion. He chose to check for three more myocardial infarction after 2 months.
If the indicator abnormality caused by some unexpected factors, the indicator should be able to return to normal in 2 months, right?
Zhu Lin is looking forward to this.
Two months later,
The community where Zhu Lin is located was blocked. The second report of
has been released. You can check it online. My son helped him find it out and saw it. Not only did myoglobin not drop, but it rose from more than 60 to more than 70.
In order to make the indicators fall as much as possible, Zhu Lin thought he had managed himself very strictly in the past two months, but the results did not improve.
Should I have coronary angiography? Zhu Lin repeatedly pondered the doctor's words.
He really wanted to ask another doctor for a question, but the community was blocked and it was inconvenient to go to the hospital. The child asked him for a question. He needed to call 120 when going out for a doctor and had to wait in the hospital for several hours to get a nucleic acid result, which was very inconvenient.
But if you leave it alone, you will always worry: What if is really a heart attack?
Young people have a more convenient way: their son helped Zhu Lin make an appointment for 15 minutes of online health consultation .
Online consultation
A doctor assistant contacted Zhu Lin's son according to the buyer information filled in when purchasing, and asked him to take photos of all Zhu Lin's medical history and medications he had taken in the past years and sent them one by one.
"You are suspected of coronary heart disease ". Later, the doctor assistant recommended a doctor of related majors on WeChat. After Zhu Lin and his son approved it, they made an appointment for online video conversations.
When he was really "face-to-face" with the doctor through video, Zhu Lin noticed that all his cases had been sorted into a PPT according to certain rules and displayed on another electronic screen at the hands of the expert.
"Usually, I don't necessarily recommend imaging for this slight increase, but you are older and have a history of hypertension for more than 30 years. I would strongly recommend that you go to the hospital now for further examination." The doctor across the screen finally said this.
Maybe I don’t want to go through the heart-wrenching situation for the past two months, maybe the doctor’s advice has worked, Zhu Lin finally made up his mind this time: No matter how troublesome it is, he has to go to the hospital!
2 months later
Zhu Lin not only did the angiography, but also installed two stents.
The surgeon praised: Fortunately, you are here! One section of blood vessels is blocked by 50%, and another section of blood vessels is blocked by 80%, and you may die of sudden myocardial infarction at any time!
Zhu Lin and his son are very grateful.
Under the epidemic, some people, like Zhu Lin and his son, chose to consult a doctor online first due to inconvenience in medical treatment or other considerations.
Although this type of online consultation cannot replace offline consultation, can help them understand their disease better, which may be what anxious patients need very much at the moment.
