I Can Talk to the Internal Organs-Chapter 269 - 236: The Needle Fails to Obtain Qi!?

The hydronephrosis cried!

It never expected a doctor to understand it so well.

Originally, it was taken away because the heart fire in its old shell failed, and the person donated it, so it came to this body.

It was also scared at first, which left it extremely weak, but when it arrived at this body, it found that the similar in here were even weaker than it was.

At first, it didn't want to go against the heart fire, but the spirit it carried couldn't integrate at all.

In other words, this conflict was not something it could control but was innate.

Although Lu Jiu's words touched it deeply, it was very clear that no matter what Lu Jiu did, the heart fire of this body would not reconcile with it.

"Give up, it's impossible. The conflict between me and them is something you cannot resolve!" said the hydronephrosis.

Lu Jiu said, "Let me try."

At this point, the five viscera no longer opposed.

Of course, they did not agree either.

They couldn't command Lu Jiu, and resistance was pointless.

After saying this, Lu Jiu let go and then looked at Lu Hong, "Sir, let me give you some acupuncture to see the effect. Frankly speaking, the situation inside your body is particularly complex after the organ transplant, and the efficacy of Chinese medicine is very limited. I'm not confident in treating it, so after the acupuncture, if there's no significant effect, I still suggest you use Western medicine for treatment."

Lu Hong frowned at Lu Jiu's words, "Dr. Lu, is my condition really difficult for you?"

Lu Jiu could only smile wryly, "Organ transplants are still too rare for me, and I've never met a patient like you before."

Lu Hong said, "Then can you not treat the rejection reaction, just adjust my high blood pressure, this shouldn't be too hard, right?"

Lu Jiu shook his head, "Your high blood pressure is itself a sequela of the organ transplant. If I can't even solve the rejection reaction, your high blood pressure issue is also beyond help."

Lu Hong sighed bitterly, "So this means after a kidney transplant surgery, I got myself full of illnesses?"

Lu Jiu didn't respond, he couldn't say much to Lu Hong about such treatment.

After all, he wouldn't understand.

"Please take off your shirt, and let me give you a few needles to see." Lu Jiu said.

Lu Hong didn't hesitate, immediately starting to undress.

Lu Jiu also took out the needles and began to insert them at Lu Hong's acupuncture points.

His point selection idea was to treat the kidneys by first strengthening the heart, but strengthening the heart is not about immediately targeting heart-regulating points.

In some ways, the kidney overcomes the heart because the liver is blocked, so at this time, smoothing the liver to ensure the liver's blood vessels are clear and the blood can flow smoothly to the heart is also a form of strengthening the heart.

Therefore, Lu Jiu's first few needles aimed to smooth the liver.

However, after he inserted the needles, Lu Jiu was surprised to find that the acupuncture points could not draw in qi!

With his level of acupuncture, he could draw in qi even with his eyes closed.

This scene indeed surprised Lu Jiu.

Since his acupuncture skills improved, he had never encountered a situation where the needles couldn't draw in qi.

Try Flying Needle Qi Introduction!

Lu Jiu immediately began to twist and lift the needles.

Ten seconds...

Twenty seconds...

Thirty seconds...

At the acupuncture point, there was no change on the skin at all.

"Sir, do you feel anything?" Lu Jiu asked.

"What feeling?" Lu Hong said.

"Where I inserted the needle." Lu Jiu said.

"Oh, nothing at all." Lu Hong said.

"No soreness, numbness, or swelling?" Lu Jiu asked.

"Absolutely none." Lu Hong said.

This is too strange!

Lu Jiu was perplexed!

All the viscera are there, and though this sir's qi and blood are insufficient, it's not to the point of significant loss.

Logically, the needles should work.

But why can't qi be drawn?

Could it be that after an organ transplant, even acupuncture becomes ineffective?

If that's the case, then Lu Jiu is indeed stumped.

The key to acupuncture is getting qi.

If you can't even draw in qi with a needle, how do you talk about treatment?

Even if Lu Jiu's needling naturally tunes the spirit, it is of no use if there's no qi.

It seems post-organ transplant patients are not as simple as I thought.

On second thought, if organ transplant patients could be treated with Chinese medicine, achieving a balance of the five viscera through acupuncture or herbal medicine, it would covertly endorse transplantation as a viable treatment, allowing wealthy people to attain a form of immortality by combining traditional and modern medicine.

Lu Jiu believes someone must have researched this, but why hasn't there been success until now?

Clearly, traditional Chinese medicine cannot balance different viscera!

Once organs are transplanted, the patient naturally has two spirits, which is impossible to reconcile!

Clearly, Lu Jiu overestimated his medical skill!

After unsuccessful needling, Lu Jiu could only withdraw the needles and give up.

"Sorry, sir, I can't treat your condition." Lu Jiu said.

Lu Hong asked curiously, "Dr. Lu, it's been less than a minute, isn't this too fast?"

Lu Jiu smiled bitterly, "This has nothing to do with speed. Other patients come here for treatment no matter their condition, and acupuncture can always have some effect. But on you, my acupuncture is completely ineffective. Honestly, this is the first time my acupuncture has no effect at all."

Lu Hong frowned, "Then how about Chinese medicine, if acupuncture fails shouldn't Chinese medicine work?"

Lu Jiu shook his head, "Given your situation, I don't even know how to differentiate the symptoms, and without differentiation, I can't prescribe. So sir, better follow the hospital's prescription. I'm helpless."

Lu Hong sighed helplessly at Lu Jiu's firm attitude.

He originally thought Chinese medicine could solve his problem, after all, Lu Jiu's reputation in Jianghan is so great, anyone would say he's an extraordinary doctor.

But the result: just after beginning treatment, he said it can't be cured.

It's impossible not to be disappointed.

But what could Lu Hong say?

The hospital couldn't cure his conditions either!

Sigh!

"Alright, thank you, Dr. Lu." Lu Hong said.

With that, Lu Hong stood up and left.

Beside them, An Xianda, who watched Lu Jiu's consultation the entire time, was astonished when he heard Lu Jiu ask if the patient had undergone organ transplantation and got a positive response.

Honestly, in all his years of practice, he had never encountered a patient with organ transplantation.

"Lu Jiu, how did it feel when you were needling?" An Xianda asked.

Lu Jiu replied truthfully, "Couldn't draw qi, even with Qi Introduction techniques."

"Patients with organ transplants can't even draw qi?" An Xianda was greatly surprised.

Zuo Quan, who was nearby, chimed in, "I didn't expect acupuncture to be ineffective too. I once met a patient with a heart transplant and prescribed based on the principle of draining the spleen and nourishing the lungs. But after taking it, the patient had no effect. I then changed the prescription four more times, yet it was still ineffective. Later, I sought advice from my teacher who prescribed medicine, and it was the same result."

"Later, my teacher said that patients with organ transplants already have an extra spirit, and medicine regulates the functions of the five viscera, not the spirits carried by the viscera. In other words, under the influence of the medicine, the patient's two spirits become strong together or weak together. Thus, no matter how medicine is used, the conflict between spirits cannot be resolved."

"I used to think Chinese medicine was so magical, and if herbs didn't work, acupuncture would. Unfortunately, my acupuncture skills are too poor to verify it. Didn't expect even you, Lu Jiu, can't do it. It seems patients with organ transplants really can't be adjusted!"
