Chapter 223: Crazy Epilepsy? Something Is Wrong!

Chapter 214

Zheng Jiechang, the wife, said:

"Although my husband has recovered, when I asked him if he remembered what happened just now, he had no memory at all, as if all his memories of the onset of the disease had been cleared."

"Although he has recovered, I still sent my husband to the hospital."

"After going to the hospital, I did a head CT scan, and the results came out quickly, without any abnormalities."

"At that time, the doctor was still worried whether it was caused by brain hemorrhage or cerebral infarction, but according to the head CT scan, it should not be such a serious disease."

"Later, I did several EEGs, and the results showed abnormalities, indicating mild abnormalities. The diagnosis at that time was epilepsy."

"Epilepsy is what we often call epilepsy. Patients will faint, twitch, roll their eyes, and foam at the mouth without any signs. They look very scary, just like crazy."

Zhou Mo nodded.

In fact, the cause of epilepsy is very simple, that is, abnormal discharge of brain nerves causes abnormal reactions in the human body.

And for the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy, EEG is still needed, and brain CT scans cannot find lesions.

In addition, the EEG of some people can detect epilepsy, but there are also many epilepsy patients whose EEG has no obvious abnormalities.

His wife Zheng Jie continued.

"The diagnosis of the hospital where I was hospitalized for the first time was epilepsy. When I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor prescribed some drugs to treat epilepsy."

"And the doctor repeatedly told me that I must take it for a long time to avoid another attack."

At this time, the patient Zhao Leiming suddenly spoke.

"After I was discharged from the hospital, I took the medicine on time. The situation improved and I didn't have an attack. I thought it was fine."

The patient's expression became serious: "But the good times didn't last long. Less than two months after I went home, the disease recurred."

"That morning, at about nine o'clock, I just got up and was about to go to the toilet. However, as soon as I stood up, I fell to the ground, twitching desperately, rolling my eyes and foaming at the mouth, which lasted for about ten minutes."

These behaviors were told to him by his family members after he woke up. Whenever he heard these contents, he felt a chill in his heart.

What scares him most is that when he has an attack, his memory seems to be erased, because after waking up, he can't remember anything about the attack.

The patient's face showed a bit of bitterness.

"Because I was busy with work a few days before the attack, I thought it was because I was too tired, so I didn't go to the hospital."

Wife Zheng Jie: "When my husband just got sick this time, I advised him to go to the hospital, but my husband didn't listen, so I let it go for the time being."

After a pause, wife Zheng Jie's face showed a regretful expression.

"But I didn't expect that my husband would get sick again a few days later, and this time it was more serious than the previous times."

"It was a weekend afternoon, and my husband drove me and the children to go out to play."

"However, when the car was halfway, my husband got sick, fainted, and kept twitching, and the car crashed directly into the wall."

"Fortunately, the car was not fast at the time, and there were airbags, so we only had some skin injuries."

Every time Zheng Jie thought of this, she was scared.

It has been more than two years since the onset of the disease. She has never dared to let her husband drive again. Every time she goes out, she drives the family car.

"After the onset of the disease, I saw that it was not good, so I quickly took my husband to the hospital again."

After hearing the patient's description, Zhou Mo felt a little strange.

Although epilepsy cannot be cured under normal circumstances, most of them can be controlled if they take medication.

In other words, if the patient really has epilepsy and takes medication for a long time, then it should not recur.

However, this patient had multiple seizures while taking medication, indicating that the patient's real cause of illness is likely not epilepsy.

"What happened at that time?"

After hearing the patient's words, Zhou Mo also asked.

"After arriving at our county people's hospital, the doctor listened to our description and felt that the possibility of epilepsy was very high."

"So I arranged for my husband to do a head CT EEG and so on.

"No obvious abnormalities were found. "

Zhou Mo has already started thinking at this time.

Is it not epilepsy?

Although the possibility of epilepsy is very high, the heart cannot be ruled out.

There are many symptoms that lead to 'epilepsy', but the most important ones are problems with the brain and heart.

For example, some people have arrhythmias, which can cause convulsions and rolling eyes.

It is mainly because the blood of the brain and even the whole body is supplied by the heart, and when the heart rate is abnormal, it may not be able to continue to supply blood to the brain.

In this case, the brain will suffer from severe ischemia in a short period of time, causing abnormal brain function, so there will be convulsions, coma, and loss of memory.

The wife continued.

"The doctor had another suspicion at the time, arrhythmia."

"We arranged for a dynamic electrocardiogram and cardiac ultrasound, but no abnormalities were found."

"Then we did a 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram, and did it many times in a row, but no obvious arrhythmia was found."

"Finally, the doctor was helpless and could only prescribe some drugs to treat epilepsy and asked me to go home and take more medicine, maybe it could be controlled."

At this point, the patient resisted the urge to curse.

These doctors' medical skills are too poor. They can't find the cause of the disease and just let him take medicine.

Taking medicine is fine, but taking medicine alone can't solve the problem.

"How effective is the medicine? How long has it lasted without an attack?" Zhou Mo asked.

He knew that the patient must have an attack again, otherwise he would not have been sent to the Second Provincial Hospital by ambulance.

"About half a year."

"At that time, I thought the medicine was cured, but I didn't feel happy for long before the attack came again."

Hearing the patient's description, the family members suddenly interrupted.

"Not only did he get sick, but he also seemed to have developed a disease, which was different from the previous symptoms."

"Before, he was convulsing and unconscious, and there was no special behavior...but this time, he lost control of his emotions and yelled like he was crazy."

The patient's wife was speechless. How could this disease escalate?

"We were eating at the time, and my husband suddenly stood up and overturned the table. Then he danced and talked nonsense, and I didn't know what he was saying."

"And in my husband's random yelling, I seemed to hear the word Lele."

Speaking of this, Zheng Jie's expression turned cold, and a dangerous light flashed in her eyes.

Although I didn't ask about my husband's previous affairs, I had chatted with several of his buddies before, and heard that my husband's first love girlfriend seemed to be called Lele.

He was out of control, and he actually yelled the name of his first love girlfriend.

After her husband recovered, she deliberately found excuses to have a big fight with him, but she never said it was because of this matter.

Feeling that she had thought too much, Zheng Jie shook her head gently and came back to her senses.

"When my husband got sick, several of us wanted to take him to the hospital, but he was like crazy and wouldn't let anyone get close to him."

"Whenever someone got within one meter of him, my husband would punch and kick them, and even wanted to rush up and bite them with his teeth."

"It was so scary, as if he wanted to eat people alive."
