“His wife had always had poor health, and she was diagnosed with uremia due to excessive fatigue.”
When asked about her usual lifestyle habits, it seemed to involve habits like “sitting for the entire day
when busy” and “habitually holding urine when feeling the urge to go.”
Lilly was taken aback. “You can get uremia from not urinating?”
The victim ghost paused and said, “In medical terms, nothing is absolute. But habitual urine retention,
not urinating when feeling the urge, can lead to urinary tract infections, pyelonephritis, and other
conditions. If chronic pyelonephritis is left untreated for a long time, it can progress to uremia.”
Retaining urine doesn’t always lead to uremia, but all diseases accumulate gradually, and the reasons
are too complex.
“Not only you don’t understand. Many patients don’t understand either.”
“When the woman was brought in, she was only experiencing nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. But the
test results showed uremia.”
“After hearing this, her husband immediately slapped me!” victim ghost exclaimed.
Lilly exclaimed, “Ah?”
What does this have to do with the doctor?
The victim ghost sighed, “He said, ‘My wife was perfectly fine when she was brought in. How did you
suddenly diagnose her with uremia?'”
He acted as if the doctors intentionally diagnosed her with uremia.
Indeed, the man thought that way, convinced that the doctors deliberately diagnosed his wife with
uremia and then prescribed a bunch of tests for them to do, followed by hospitalization for treatment, all
to make money off them!
Lilly and the other ghosts exchanged puzzled glances.

The victim ghost sneered, “Of course, it sounds familiar. That man is Synjin.”
Never did she expect to encounter Synjin again in the hospital after more than a decade.
Lilly exclaimed, “How is this even possible? What do you call this?”
The weakling spirit said, “This is the karmic reincarnation.”
Lilly nodded, “Ah, I see. What happened next?”
The victim ghost continued, “Synjin didn’t believe our diagnosis. He kept saying, ‘My wife was perfectly
fine when she arrived. How did she suddenly have uremia?'”
“As doctors, the most annoying thing we hear is when someone says, ‘The person was perfectly fine
when they arrived… damn it! How can a perfectly healthy person end up in the hospital?'”
The victim ghost felt frustrated while talking about it. However, there was nothing she could do.
Explaining the progression of the disease and communicating with patients and their families were all
part of their job.
“I patiently explained the reasons to him. His wife had always had poor health, and her lifestyle habits
were not good. Uremia is the terminal stage of disease progression in patients with chronic
pyelonephritis, so immediate dialysis and treatment are necessary…”
“Synjin simply didn’t believe my explanation. He kept saying, ‘I’ve never heard of someone getting
uremia from sitting for too long and holding urine! You must be trying to deceive us!'”
The victim ghost was furious, but there was nothing she could do. She had explained everything, but
whether or not to seek treatment was ultimately their decision!
“Synjin didn’t believe us. He firmly believed that the hospital was trying to swindle their money. So he
took his wife back home and before leaving, he said, ‘Isn’t it just nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea? You
make it sound like she’s on the verge of death!'”
Not only did Synjin slap her, but he also continued to insult her and even filed a complaint against her.
As a result, her bonus was deducted.
“I barely received any salary that month. What frustrated me the most was that it was the first time in
my career that I was slapped by a patient…”
Perhaps it was the first slap of her professional career. The victim ghost still felt aggrieved while
recalling it, with tears of humiliation in her eyes.
“Two months later, Synjin’s wife deteriorated.”
“Her whole body swelled up, and her skin turned black. She couldn’t even get out of bed.”
During these two months, after Synjin slapped her, the other patients also looked at her with strange
eyes.
[It’s her! She was slapped by someone, and I heard she prescribes medication recklessly…]
[She’s so young, and she doesn’t seem reliable. Probably didn’t make a proper diagnosis; there must
have been a reason why someone slapped her.]
Such comments were not uncommon!
Tears welled up in the victim ghost’s eyes. “In the last two months of my life, I experienced the most
malicious treatment.”
Due to rumors of her poor medical skills and reckless prescribing, her patients began to question her.
They would always suspect whether the medications she prescribed were correct or if she was
prescribing them recklessly.
At the slightest discomfort, they would immediately attribute it to her.
She was even publicly scolded, slapped, and had objects thrown atxo.com fast update her.
“I realized for the first time what the experienced doctors meant when they said, ‘May the heavens
strike you down if you advise someone to study medicine.’ But let’s not dwell on that.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe victim ghost seemed like a long-suppressed and aggrieved child, unable to help but complain.
After venting her grievances, she returned to the main topic.
“For the two months after leaving the hospital, Synjin took his wife to clinics to buy diarrhea medicine.
When diarrhea didn’t improve, they would visit those unlicensed small clinics for injections. If the
injections didn’t work, they would seek folk remedies or take traditional medicine.”
Patients with renal failure already need to be careful about taking medication.
Taking medication indiscriminately or in excessive amounts can cause kidney problems, let alone
Synjin’s wife who already had uremia.
“It was too late. She couldn’t be saved, and she eventually died,” the victim ghost sighed, still filled with
regret.
After his wife’s death, Synjin erupted.
He believed that the hospital had killed his wife.
“What infuriated me, even more, was that he doubted my medical skills. He said I was too young and
inexperienced, that I was the one who killed his wife.”
“He said, ‘Experienced doctors are supposed to be old, bald, and have white beards. Look at how
young you are. You definitely can’t treat patients.'”
“He insisted that I was prescribing the wrong medications and that I had ruined her.”
The hospital had to present the medical records from her hospitalization to prove that everything had
been done according to protocol.
Synjin responded, “Then she must not be good at treating patients. You need to refer to the answers
and follow the process. Can’t you adapt to different situations?”
In short, the situation escalated too much, and it didn’t reflect well on the hospital. To downplay the
issue, the hospital eventually compensated Synjin with $200,000—under the pretext of
humanitarianism.
Naturally, her bonus was deducted again that month.
Lilly felt extremely speechless.
