Chapter 1024

"It should be some kind of bacterial infection?" Xu Wei said.

Bacteria are single celled microorganisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye and need to be observed with a microscope.

Bacteria are widely distributed in soil and water, or symbiotic with other organisms. The human body also carries a considerable number of bacteria. The total number of bacterial cells in the human body and on the epidermis is about ten times that of human cells.

However, under normal circumstances, when people's immunity is strong enough, bacteria will not pose any threat to people and can coexist peacefully with people.

But bacteria are the pathogens of many diseases, including tuberculosis, gonorrhea, anthrax, syphilis, plague, trachoma and other diseases are caused by bacteria.

And like tuberculosis, gonorrhea, syphilis, etc. can also cause ulceration of parts of the body, so there is a great possibility of bacterial infection.

"Rule out these diseases!" Guo Xiang circled the common diseases he thought of, such as syphilis, with a red pen, then took blood and continued to take it for testing.

When I got to the laboratory, I asked Shen Xi by the way, "how's it going?"

"No similar viruses were found in the virus library." Shen Xi shook his head.

"What about bacteria? Is it to cultivate? " Asked Guo Xiang.

"Yes, bacteria are not that fast. We need to cultivate them." Shen Xi nodded and took the blood from Guo Xiang's hand. "Continue to check?"

"Yes, let's see if these are gonorrhea, anthrax, syphilis and plague." Guo Xiang frowned. Although he thought it was unlikely, what if.

"Good!" Shen Xi nodded and suddenly asked, "is it aids?"

Guo Xiang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect this, "can we test it here?"

"No!" Shen Xi shook his head. "There is no reagent here."

"Then I'll take it to Beijing Medical University." Guo Xiang said that the hospital has not set up a sexual disease department for the time being, and there are still relatively few people with AIDS. Li Yuanhang has enough there.

So Guo Xiang took another tube of Lin Miao's blood and sent it to Beijing Medical University. He took it to Li Yuanhang and asked him to help check it.

In the afternoon, the news came from Li Yuanhang that it was not AIDS.

This excludes another item.

Shen Xi also gave feedback. It's not gonorrhea that Guo Xiang said. They don't meet the requirements.

Guo Xiang is a little worried.

The new year is coming soon. I haven't found anything. The patient is still so painful that it's not good to have a new year.

The next day is the new year's Eve. Guo Xiang is going to spend the new year at her mother's house this year. She asks Gu Zhennan to go first with her two children and Gu Xide. She is a little worried about Lin Miao and decides to go to the hospital again.

The hospital has been deserted a lot. Most doctors have taken leave, leaving only the doctors on duty. Some hospitalized patients also go home for the new year and come back after the new year.

Lin Miao lives in a three person ward, but now he is alone, very lonely.

"How's it going today?" Guo Xiang went over and asked.

"No, I seem to have a fever again!" Lin Miao is a little weak.

As soon as Guo Xiang touched his forehead, he had a severe fever. He quickly took his temperature and prepared antipyretic drugs.

"And there's a big bag in the back waist." Lin Miao pointed to his back waist.

Guo Xiang rolled up his clothes. When he saw it, there was a bulging bag. It was half a slap big. When he touched it, there was still fluctuation. It seemed that there was something in it to gush out.

Guo Xiang checked again. Not only the back waist, but also the hips and spine, there were several bags, but they were not so big. It felt like pus.

Guo Xiang was surprised. What is this?

Would you like to have a biopsy? But this is the first time Guo Xiang has encountered this situation. Do you dare to cut it?

Then try a little?

Guo Xiang took a disposable syringe and said to Lin Miao, "you can bear it. I'll draw some liquid out to see what it is."

"Good!" Lin Miao nodded and fully cooperated. He also wanted to know what it was.

Guo Xiang drew half a syringe, stopped, disinfected the needle eye, and pressed the cotton pad to avoid any further infection.

To the laboratory, Shen Xi is still there.

"Didn't go home for the new year?" Asked Guo Xiang.

"I'm on duty." Shen Xi said faintly and saw the syringe in Guo Xiang's hand, "another new one?"

"Yes!" Guo Xiang handed it over, "look what's inside!"

Shen Xi nodded, "when?"

"Tell me when you can check it out." Guo Xiang said, "but I'm going back to my mother's house for the new year today. If I find out, call me."

Guo Xiang told Shen Xi his cell phone number, and she nodded.

Now there's nothing to do. It's no use staying in the hospital. Guo Xiang explained to Xu Wei and asked him to pay attention to Lin Miao and go back to his mother's house first.

Xu Wei's parents came to Beijing for the new year. It happened that he and Zeng Jing could stay on duty in the hospital.

When Guo Xiang returned to his parents' house, everyone was making dumplings. Two small dumplings ran around and had a good time.

"Why are you so busy this year and don't stop for the new year?" Guo Yaqin asked.

"A patient just came yesterday. He had a strange disease. If he was a little worried, he went to have a look." Guo Xiang said.

"What disease?" Guo Yaqin is a little curious.

"I don't know. I haven't found it yet, but the man's lungs are like being bitten by insects. There are holes everywhere. There are many places in his body. I don't know what's going on." Guo Xiang shook his head.

"So scary?" Guo Yaqin was startled. She still didn't ask. She couldn't eat dinner later.

This year, Gu Xide went to Guo Xiang's house for the new year. There were many people. Everyone talked and laughed. They had a good year.

After the new year's Eve dinner, everyone was sitting and chatting when Guo Xiang's cell phone suddenly rang.

She hurried to answer. Could it be Shen Xi's call? What did she find?

Guo Xiang answered the phone and it was Shen Xi.

"President Guo, I found something." Shen Xi said.

"What is it?" Guo Xianglian hurriedly asked.

"I don't know!" Shen Xi shook his head, "but a bacterium was found in the pus, not bacteria, but fungi!"

"Fungi?" Guo Xiang was surprised. Generally speaking, fungi are considered to be a kind of plant. How can they grow in the human body?

Fungi originated from Latin, which means mushroom. It is a large group in the biological world, which is divided into many categories and species.

For example, tremella, Flammulina velutipes and Dictyophora, which we usually eat, belong to the subfamily of fungal basidiomycetes.

There are also some pathogens that can cause human and animal diseases. The most common ones are beriberi and onychomycosis, which are fungal infections.

But this is generally on the body surface, and few survive in the body.

If it's really a fungal infection, is it breeding in Lin Miao's body and eating his organs?

"I don't know what kind of fungus it is?" Asked Guo Xiang.

"I don't know, but I can see it from the microscope!" Shen Xi looked at the fungus creeping under the microscope while making a phone call. "I seem to have seen it. I saw it by chance when I was exchanging abroad, but I forgot what it was."

"We don't have this thing in our bacterial library." Shen Xi said, "I can call my tutor and ask."

"OK, I'll come right away." Guo Xiang said.

When everyone heard Guo Xiang's phone call, they all looked at her, "do you have to go to the hospital now?"

"I'll go and make progress. Our laboratory doctor found something. I'm going to have a look." Guo Xiang said as he went to get his coat and bag.

"Then I'll send you!" Gu Zhennan said.

"No, you have to take grandpa back later. I don't have to come back so soon." Guo Xiang shook his head, kissed the two small dumplings on the face, said sorry to his parents and ran out.

At the hospital, only a few dim lights were left in the hall, but the laboratory was brightly lit.

Guo Xiang quickly changed his white coat and went in.
