After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 41: Tribute to every experimenter (seeking monthly ticket!)
Name: Xia Qiang.

Sex: Male.

Age: 26 years old.

Number of beds: 32

Clinical diagnosis: aplastic anemia.

Xia Qiang lay on the hospital bed, quietly looking at the medical record card on the bedside.

After several seconds, he turned his head and his eyes fell on the infusion set in front of him that was filled with milky white liquid.

One drop,
Two drops,

Three drops,

The milky white liquid slowly enters the body through a thin infusion tube.

"If I hadn't had this disease, I probably would never have known that platelets are not red, but milky white, right?"

Xia Qiang sighed silently. A week ago, he was diagnosed with aplastic anemia.

During this week, he had more tests than he had ever done in his entire life, and took medicines he had never taken in his life, but what made him feel even more desperate was:

He already knew that his disease was currently incurable, and the best outcome was to take medication for a long time to maintain his life...

Thinking of this, his eyes dimmed noticeably.

"I'm only 26 years old. Do I have to take medicine for the rest of my life?"

"Besides, I'm sick, what will happen to my wife and children?"

Thinking of his wife and children, Xia Qiang felt even more distressed.

Three years ago, he married a girl from the same village and had a son. From then on, the burden of the family's life fell on his shoulders.

In order to earn more money to support his family, he left his hometown hundreds of kilometers away and came to Chengdu to become a food delivery rider.

As the day was getting better,

On the first day he entered the hospital, the doctor clearly told him that taking medicine could indeed maintain his life, but he could no longer engage in high-intensity work, such as being a food delivery rider.

He must pay attention to rest, otherwise his condition will easily worsen.

"But if I take a break, what will happen to this family?"

Xia Qiang looked at the ceiling with empty eyes, unable to see his future.

Just then, there was a sudden burst of noisy sound outside the door, and many people seemed to be discussing something excitedly.

Before he could hear clearly, a middle-aged lady in her 50s ran in excitedly.

She is Aunt Zeng, the relative of the patient in bed 33 next door.

"Xiao Xia, good news, great news."

"Do you know Qingshan Pharmaceutical? It's the manufacturer of the 'Qingshan Avatrombopag Tablets' you're taking now. They have launched a new drug that can cure 'plastic anemia'. It's now conducting clinical trials and recruiting patients!"

Xia Qiang was a little absent-minded at first, but after listening to what Aunt Zeng said, he was suddenly stunned, his face full of surprise!

"Aunt Zeng, what did you say? A drug that cures aplastic anemia?!"

"That's right!"

Aunt Zeng also looked very excited; she was truly happy for these patients.

"I read it carefully twice. They are recruiting patients of all types of 'plastic anemia', and they want to achieve a cure!"

As she spoke, Aunt Zeng couldn't help showing a hint of envy in her eyes:
"You are so lucky. Qingshan Pharmaceutical is actually researching a drug to cure aplastic anemia. My daughter has hemophilia, otherwise I would definitely let her participate in the trial!"

Xia Qiang was completely shocked. If he hadn't been receiving a platelet transfusion at the time, he would have been eager to go over and take a look in person.

But even so, he still felt an irrepressible excitement in his heart.

Just then, another figure walked in from the door of the ward. It was Sister Sun, a family member of the patient in bed 34 in the same ward.

Sister Sun is a native of Chengdu and a middle-level manager at a bank. Unfortunately, her son also suffers from aplastic anemia.

Seeing Sister Sun coming in, Aunt Zeng said hurriedly:

"Xiao Sun, did you see that?" "That Qingshan Pharmaceutical is recruiting 'plastic anemia patients' to develop new drugs to cure aplastic anemia. Isn't your son a good candidate? You can go and give it a try."

Sister Sun nodded slightly:

"Yes, got it."

The calm tone made Aunt Zeng's excitement stop abruptly, and Xia Qiang on the side was also a little surprised. Logically speaking, shouldn't she be excited about such great news?

Sister Sun didn't say much. She slowly walked towards bed 34 at the back of the ward. When she reached the bed, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xia Qiang.

"Xiao Xia, Sister Sun suggests that you wait and not participate in the clinical trial for the time being."

Xia Qiang was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding.

"First of all, your condition is not serious now. You can completely control it by taking Qingshan Avatrombopag Tablets."

"Also, I just heard that this 'ITG human ovulation hormone' has been clinically tested before, and the effect is not that good..."

"Besides, even if they change the drug ingredients in the third phase of clinical trials and it really works, you can wait for others to try it first.

It’s not too late to join after others have tried it and found it effective! ”

"what?!"

Xia Qiang was stunned. He never expected Sister Sun to say that.

Seeing this, Sister Sun continued:
"As the saying goes, medicine is three-part poison. You blood patients are weaker and have weaker immunity. Why do you leave the risk to yourself?"

"The safest way is to wait until others have tried it and found no problems before joining. Have you ever thought about what would happen if the new drug had some side effects and really damaged your other organs? Who would pity you?"

"How are your wife and children doing?"

As soon as the words fell, Xia Qiang's originally excited mood cooled down instantly, and his previously firm thoughts were also shaken.

He suddenly thought of his two-year-old son and his wife...

indeed.

I'm already sick, what will happen if something else happens?

and,

Yes!

Since there are several hundred spots available, let's wait for others to join before going...

There are many people who have the same idea as Sister Sun.

The corridor of the inpatient department fell into silence after a brief bustle, as most people realized this problem.

no way,
Before, everyone only had traditional medicines, which were not very effective, so when Qingshan Avatrombopag appeared, everyone rushed to try it.

Now "Qingshan Afa" is enough to stabilize everyone's condition, and no one is in a hurry anymore.

Li Xue, who was in charge of patient recruitment, was also a little confused. She had expected that everyone would be eager to try the drug, but she didn't expect that there were many people asking, but only a few were actually willing to sign the clinical trial agreement.

This is the situation in the inpatient department. The news spread to the group of patients with aplastic anemia. After a heated discussion, when it came to the actual decision of whether or not to participate, everyone was hesitant.

"Mr. Zhang, does your daughter want to participate in one? This is a new drug developed by Qingshan Pharmaceutical."

"Hey, my daughter is actually in good shape recently. Let me ask her what she thinks first."

"Then Sister Ding, would you like to sign up?"

"I'm sorry, I'm on a business trip recently and I don't know how long I'll be busy. If I come back, I will definitely participate!"

"Xiao Feng, didn't you say in the group a while ago that it would be great if there was a drug that could completely cure aplastic anemia? Now Qingshan Pharmaceutical is developing a new drug, aren't you going to join in?"

"Ah? Did I say that? But recently I feel that the effect of taking 'Avatrombopag Tablets' is quite good. I will first see if I can take 'Qingshan Ava' to achieve the cure?"

When Director Hu got the first day's recruitment data after get off work that day, he was shocked.

After a whole day, online and offline, the Phase III clinical trial that required 550 trial participants only recruited 7 patients.

He soon realized that it was not that the patients did not value "ITG human ovarian hormone", but that they were waiting for others to participate.

But you wait for me, I wait for you, when will the new drug be successful? !
