Chapter 362: : Incubation period

Liao Wenen personally took Ye Chen to the separate ward, knocked on the door, and a younger brother Cheng Fei opened the door. When he saw that it was Liao Wenen and Ye Chen, he hurriedly stepped aside.
When Ye Chen entered inside, he saw Cheng Fei sitting on the hospital bed seemingly decadent, leaning against the window, holding his face, and his little brothers were playing poker boringly. When they saw Ye Chen and Liao Wenen come in, they stopped the poker in their hands.
When Ye Chen looked at Cheng Fei, Cheng Fei looked up and found that Ye Chen was also here. He hurriedly asked, "Mr. Ye, can you really cure my illness?"
"Don't worry, you must ask clearly first!" Ye Chen said.
When Ye Chen and Liao Lao first looked for chairs and sat down, Ye Chen first looked at Cheng Fei and asked, "How did your illness come about? How long has it been?"
"I spent a few years in the cell before, and when the sentence came, I was released. When I went to the hospital for an examination, I already knew that I had this disease." Cheng Fei said.
"Prison?" Seeing Cheng Fei like that, he must have gone in for several years because of a crime. But how did his illness come from? Seeing that it was passed to him by someone in the cell?
"Then your illness was passed on to you by criminals in the cell?" Ye Chen asked.
"Forget it!" Cheng Fei didn't want to say much about this, but Ye Chen remembered that time when he was innocently held in the detention center. When thinking of the few people inside, he knew those people had not faced women for a long time. In the case of sexual depression, it is very possible for men to do that kind of flowery things.
Of course, some are voluntary, and when in a detention center or cell, more are forced. Since they are the criminals in the cell, most of them are not good people. Therefore, after Cheng Fei came inside and was infected, even if he was released after his sentence expired, he was afraid that he would have the same idea of ​​self-defeating.
"Actually, when I was in the cell, I had heard someone say that the person took drugs and killed people before entering the cell, because the drug had been infected with this virus. Therefore, after I got out of the cell, I went to the hospital for an examination and found That's it." Cheng Fei said.
"How long is it probably?" Ye Chen asked.
"Plus the time to get out of the cell, it should be five or six years!" Cheng Fei said.
"Ye Chen, the incubation period of this HIV virus should be between 5 and 12 years. Some will appear for a long time, and some will appear within a few days." Although Liao Wenen has no research on this type of disease, he usually Looking at those related books and magazines, he is still very clear.
When he heard this, Ye Chen felt that the incubation period of the HIV virus was somewhat similar to the incubation period of the rabies virus. It’s okay if there is no seizure, but if it does, I’m afraid it will kill the patient soon.
"What about you guys?" Ye Chen said, looking at Cheng Fei's younger brothers.
"I, we don't, we are all healthy!" said Cheng Fei's younger brothers. Although they love to play and fight, they also know that health is the most important thing. If they are infected with the disease of the boss Cheng Fei, they may be scared to death even if the disease hasn't attacked yet.
"You don't usually have too close contact?" Ye Chen asked.
"Absolutely not. We are not good at this. When we go to nightclubs, we and other technicians will take safety measures and even stay away from those drug users." Cheng Fei said.
The reason why he talked about drug use is because drug use not only causes people to become skinny and phantoms, but also because drug users often have promiscuity. Under such circumstances, there is no doubt that promiscuity occurs. It is the easiest way to spread AIDS.
There is another type, the drug addict uses a syringe to take drugs. If the drug addict himself suffers from this type of infectious disease, he will definitely infect another person through the blood remaining in the syringe. Therefore, the younger brothers like Cheng Fei are still doing well in this regard.
When Ye Chen carefully observed Cheng Fei's situation, he found that his current appearance was of the kind of upset and impatience, and his tongue was greasy and yellow, and his pulse was slippery.
"How is your usual diet?" Ye Chen asked.
"I'm uncontrollable, eat whatever you want, especially spicy food, the more you ask, the better." Cheng Fei said.
"Are there any other special symptoms? How do you feel?" Ye Chen asked again.
"The mouth is sour, and there is always a situation where I want to belch and vomit. In many cases, I suffer from insomnia at night. So I like to take them around at night!" After hearing this, Liao Wenen next to him, basically, can confirm Cheng Fei's These symptoms belong to the incubation period of AIDS.
At the beginning, it is an infection period when HIV has invaded the human body, and the body’s external defense system will inevitably resist the invading evil poison. According to Chinese medicine, this period may be a manifestation of evil toxins. And, there are symptoms such as headache, fever, fatigue, sore throat, and general malaise.
Or evil toxins invade the lungs, causing symptoms such as strong fever, coughing, expectoration, head and body pain; or failure of the catharsis of the fur, and the evil toxins are depressed in the muscles, and the cervical, axillary, and occipital lymph nodes are enlarged, or acutely multiple Sexual neuritis, skin rash, hepatosplenomegaly, etc., last for about 1-2 weeks and then relieve itself.
At that time, if you are not paying attention, you think you just have a cold. On this point, Cheng Fei would definitely not show it now, because according to his description, he had been infected for five or six years, and the infection period had already passed.
As for the incubation period, the HIV-infected human body enters a rather long asymptomatic period after the acute infection period, and some people directly enter the incubation period without the acute period after infection.
People infected during this period, although called "asymptomatic", mean that they have not yet developed AIDS-related symptoms and are not absolutely asymptomatic.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, righteousness and evil are equal in this period, and the struggle between righteousness and evil has entered a stalemate stage, but the righteousness is gradually being depleted, and the functions of yin and yang, qi and blood, body fluid and viscera are gradually imbalanced.
Clinical manifestations are pale and shaohua, easy to catch a cold, general fatigue, insomnia and dreams, anxiety and fear, low mood, dizziness, or low-grade night sweats, irritated heat, dry mouth, swollen lymph nodes, etc., and the body's resistance gradually decreases.
According to Ye Chen's inquiry and understanding of Cheng Fei just now, there is no doubt that Cheng Fei's situation is at this stage of incubation.
During the onset period, HIV replicates and reproduces in the human body, continuously destroying the human immune function. When the disease progresses to a certain extent, the body's immune function is low or defective, and AIDS-related symptoms appear.
According to Chinese medicine, righteousness cannot overcome the evil in this period, and the righteous qi is more deficient, and various diseases and evils take advantage of the deficiency, leading to the deficiency of the deficient, the qi, blood, body fluid, and the viscera. Mutual knots, eliminate righteousness, and clinically see various opportunistic infections.
It is manifested as persistent fever, swollen lymph nodes, diarrhea, weight loss, fatigue, thrush, cough, headache, rash, dermatitis, and concurrent pcp, tumor, tuberculosis, etc.
In the final late stage, there is extreme decline of righteousness, loss of qi deficiency, yang loss, blood deficiency and yin loss, yin loss and yang, yang loss and yin, yin and yang both decline, manifested as deficiency and weight loss, fatigue, fatigue, chlorosis, and slight breathing Yin and Yang are separated and life is dead.
These are all what Liao Lao told Ye Chen based on the information he saw and his own understanding. Therefore, Ye Chen can see that according to some theories of Chinese medicine, it shows that Western medicine's research in this area shows that it is more advanced than Chinese medicine.
However, Ye Chen knows that since Cheng Fei’s situation is in the incubation period, if he is cured within this time period, and even if his condition is relieved, he may still be alive without reaching the onset period. .
"Mr. Ye, can my disease be cured?" Cheng Fei asked. In fact, he is very aware of the rumors from the outside world. Basically, he is infected with this virus and is hovering outside the ghost gate. As for when he enters, it depends on his own fate.
"Sure, as long as you believe in yourself and my medical skills!" Ye Chen said.
"Really?" Cheng Fei and his little brothers still couldn't believe it.
"Your symptoms, obviously, belong to the incubation period of HIV, which means that the onset period is not yet onset, and there is still a chance for treatment. Now you have the symptoms mentioned above, according to Chinese medicine, it belongs to phlegm fever. I use Chinese medicine to treat the symptoms of disturbance, mainly to resolve phlegm, clear away heat, and regulate qi.
Lao Liao stood there, but he was a little surprised when he heard what Ye Chen said. However, he didn't ask much. After Ye Chen went outside and asked a female nurse to bring him a medical record sheet, Ye Chen started to prescribe Cheng Fei's prescription on that sheet. However, the name of the disease written on the prescription is just a common disease, and there are many medicinal materials on it.
After he opened it, let Cheng Fei's younger brother follow along. After Liao Wenen ordered a female nurse, she asked the female nurse to take Cheng Fei's younger brother to get medicine and decoction.
"Cheng Fei, you can live here at ease and don't have to think about anything." Ye Chen said.
When Ye Chen went outside and left the ward far away, Liao Wenen asked, "Ye Chen, did you just lie to him?"
"No, maybe my prescription will be effective!" Ye Chen smiled.
