Chapter 41: Special Case: Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome!

“Doctor, have you found the reason?”

The woman looked at Lin Feng with joy, excitement, and disbelief. She had searched all the top hospitals in the province but hadn’t found the cause. Unexpectedly, she found a glimmer of hope at City Hospital.

“Auntie, please calm down for now…”

Lin Feng didn’t provide a direct answer but asked detailed questions about the little girl’s condition.

• • The little girl is a left-behind child. Her aunt and husband work in Peng City, while she lives in the rural mountainous area of northern Guangdong with her grandmother.

• • The little girl performs well academically and seems to be an achiever. She excels when encouraged.

• • Every time the little girl vomits, it happens in her hometown and has never occurred in the city.

…

He asked many questions. Lin Feng spent nearly an hour, filling several pages with notes. The aunt remained patient because she understood that the more thorough Lin Feng’s inquiries were, the higher the chances of finding a cure.

Two hours later…

Lin Feng finished the questioning and printed a “Child Psychological Assessment Test.” He asked the aunt to have the little girl fill it out.

There were 28 questions, and it took 20 minutes for the little girl to complete them diligently. After analyzing the test results, Lin Feng’s mind finally settled.

Confirmed!

The cause is “Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome”!

It is a psychological disorder characterized by recurrent severe nausea and vomiting without any symptoms during the interictal period, without any organic basis.

Yes, it is a mental disorder!

The exact pathogenesis is still unclear, but it involves multiple factors such as autonomic nervous system dysregulation, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activation, and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Anxiously, the aunt asked, “Doctor, how is it? Did you find the cause?”

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Yes, I found it. The reason is your husband’s phone calls… Your daughter has a strong personality, enjoys praise, and has an achiever personality. She is resistant to criticism… Your husband calls and scolds her once her academic performance declines, leading to vomiting episodes…”

Lin Feng smiled at the little girl, saying, “Little sister, am I right?” The little girl hesitated for a moment and nodded.

The aunt stood stunned, “Is it possible? Vomiting just because of a phone call?”

She couldn’t accept it!

She felt that Lin Feng was trying to fool her. However, Lin Feng wasn’t deceiving her. In a “clinical experience of a certain world-renowned psychiatrist,” there were three cases of this condition.

Surprisingly similar!

Lin Feng shared these three cases with the aunt.

“I never expected… it’s because of this…”

The aunt’s face was filled with pain, guilt, and regret. She regretted being too strict with her daughter and not stopping her husband.

She looked at Lin Feng eagerly, “Doctor, is there any way to treat it?”

Lin Feng replied, “This condition is a bit challenging. First, you shouldn’t let your husband make phone calls anymore. If possible, come back home personally and avoid criticism. Encourage her instead, and don’t make your daughter feel anxious… Additionally, she needs to receive psychological counseling from a mental health professional to address and correct the underlying issues…”

The aunt nodded repeatedly, “This time, I won’t let my husband treat our daughter like that anymore…”

Lin Feng said, “As for the vomiting, I will prescribe some medication. She can take it if vomiting occurs, but it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause… The fundamental solution lies in parental love.”

The aunt said, “Thank you, doctor, thank you!”

She hugged the little girl and cried.

“Mom and Dad are sorry, my dear~~~”

• • Soon, Lin Feng prescribed the medication, the aunt received it, and they left with the little girl.

An hour later, they met the father who had just finished work.

“Caused by my phone calls? Ridiculous, what a quack doctor!”

After hearing the diagnosis, the father became furious.

He felt it was absurd!

“Humph, I don’t believe this ridiculous reason… How about this? Let’s go to another doctor to verify it!”

“Alright, if it is the cause, you can’t be so harsh on our daughter in the future!”

“Naturally, she’s my precious daughter!”

…

An hour later, the couple, accompanied by the little girl, went to another top-tier hospital, Peking University Hospital, and got an appointment with a specialist.

This hospital was the most famous and well-equipped in Peng City.

After reviewing the medical records and examination results, the senior professor was also puzzled. He had never seen such a strange illness before.

At this moment, the aunt couldn’t help but say, “Doctor, earlier in the morning at City Hospital, the doctor who saw us mentioned that it could be ‘Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome’…”

She explained it in detail.

The senior professor exclaimed, “Oh, I think I’ve heard of this… Wait, I remember! A few days ago, my student called me and mentioned this condition!”

The husband exclaimed, “Doctor, is such a condition true?”

The senior professor nodded, “Indeed, there are cases like this. It is said that there have been three cases in Beacon Country.”

The aunt nodded repeatedly, “Yes, the doctor there mentioned these three cases to me!”

The senior professor chuckled, “What a coincidence.”

Encountering such a case, the senior professor was also interested. He immediately called his student’s phone in Beacon Country and discussed the little girl’s case.

Twenty minutes later…

After hanging up the phone, the senior professor told the couple, “It can probably be confirmed that it is indeed this condition.”

The husband fell silent. The guilt in his heart made tears well up uncontrollably. He remembered his daughter’s repeated vomiting and her serious illnesses…

It was all because of himself, causing his daughter so much suffering!!

He swore that he would never scold his daughter again and would make up for his past mistakes!

“By the way,” the senior professor became curious, “What’s the name of the doctor who made the diagnosis at City Hospital?”

Without hesitation, the aunt replied, “His name is Lin Feng, a very young doctor, and I think he’s still an intern.”

The senior professor fell silent.

An intern?

However, he remembered the name.
