The Miracle Doctor: Call Me Savior

Chapter 35 Seven-apertured Disease

Zachary had found out the cause of Lauren's illness when he was treating her. It was an extremely rare type of heart disease, called the "Seven-apertured Disease".

This meant that Lauren had seven little holes in her heart.

In Western medicine, this kind of heart disease was known as a congenital septal defect. Under normal circumstances, it could be repaired through surgery or replaced by prosthetics.

As for the seven-apertured disease, the operation could not be performed at all because the defects of the heart were too much. Also, there were no prosthetics available for this disease. It could be said that a patient with this disease was destined to die. It was already a miracle that Lauren could survive until now.

Even Harrison Ching, who used to be the Herbal King, had only seen such case once. A prince of the royal family had this disease and it took Harrison a lot of effort to cure him.

Harrison was already the "Herbal King" at that time. Zachary was nothing as compared to Harrison.

Zachary had achieved the energy acupuncture, which was already considered admirable in modern Chinese medicine. However, he had to achieve at least the spiritual acupuncture in order to treat the seven-apertured disease. Moreover, not every needle could be used for spiritual acupuncture. Five elements were involved in Chinese medicine. The hot and cold elements, Yin and Yang had to be taken into consideration. The needles used in acupuncture were also divided into five elements. The top five needles were known as the Five Magic Needles, which included Goldie-silver needle, Pine Needle, Blue Ice Needle, Flame Needle, and Ore Needle. Pine Needle was needed in the treatment of seven- apertured disease.

Harrison poured in tremendous effort in collecting the Five Magic Needles. Now, it would be even more difficult to find the Pine Needle.

The herbs required for treatment, such as Ganoderma, Frozen Pearl, and so on, were all precious herbs. Many Chinese physicians nowadays had never even heard of them.

Therefore, it was almost impossible to cure seven-apertured disease.

However, looking at the woman in his arms, Zachary was determined to cure her.

After snuggling in his arms for a while, Lauren calmed down gradually. She resumed her charming and seductive look, smiling, "Zach, you have taken advantage of me today. You can't betray me in the future!"

She sounded as if Zachary had done something unspeakable to her. He smiled wryly, thinking that Lauren was definitely charming but dangerous.
