Chapter 16th Differences Between The Two
The ambulance would be arriving at the Hong Kong medical hospital in a few minutes, Sung Wung was talking with the tech up front, she could see the hospital coming up with traffic having to be light at the moment.
When they finally arrived the trauma team came out to meet them at the entrance, Sung was aloud to go into the treatment room with Esposito while the doctor's checked him out.
Judith was asked to walk over to the admitting office and give them the information that would be needed for there office, and sent back to the United States.
She was happy that the people that worked in the admitting office were able to speak English at least, while she explained the entire situation to them.
Inside the emergency room, two of the nurses were checking Esposito vitals, while Dr. Woo was asking a number of questions about his injuries and the type of medications he's been taking the past few weeks.
And it stands a good chance that Javier Esposito was having a side effect, either was taken in large doses or it was the fact the side effects is what caused the blood clots in his leg.
Sung Wung was asked to wait outside, while they take there patient to the x ray/ultra sound department to check his blood circulation, and where exactly are the clots.
Before moving to the waiting room, Dr. Woo having to worked for the hospital for the past 16 years, was able to explain the situation to her in there own language.
"How long has he been complaining of the pain in his leg and right knee? He asked while writing the information on his patient's chart.
"A couple of days, matter of fact doctor, he started to complain on his way over here, to come visit me from the United States."
"It's a possible chance that the long flight might of only made it worst before the real issues started to surface, and it's why we have to have a Doppler done or a venous machine to check the circulation."
"And what happens afterwards Doctor Woo?"
"That depends on where the clots are, we can probably be able to give him medication or blood thinners to help with the spasms in the long run."
"Thank you, I will wait here, just let me know when you find the answer to the problem." He leaves to make sure the Doppler department has the time down to take the patient as soon as possible, having to be priority at the moment."

Judith came in to check up on Sung Wung making sure she was going fine after this latest incident with his health.
"Everything is all set with the insurance and proper information that will be billed to the insurance company and police department medical program." She says with confidence to make Sung Wung feel better and not place all that stress on her with the pregnancy.

Dr. Woo was talking with the tech having to set up the Doppler on his patient, Esposito was given a shot earlier to help with the spasms and pain in his lower extremities.
The young tech working with Dr. Woo was able to help Esposito to get him onto the table and set up the electrodes in areas that needs to be checked on the computer for the areas of the clots.
After a few moments they were set to go with the probe and gel, starting at the base of his foot before moving all of the way up to his groin area, it would take 30 minutes taking a look at every angle, even though in some areas very sensitive due to the spasms going on with his leg and knee.
having to be watching the computer screen was able to find two areas that was causing the problems, it would be the fact that medication will no doubt be given to help curve the spasms in the first place.
After the Doppler, he would was brought back into the emergency room area to wait for a room, Dr. Woo was going to admit Javier Esposito for overnight and take it from there with observation, while Sung Wung will be able to go home with Judith, once they find out what room he's going to be staying in for the night, she was starting to feel exhausted along with needing something to eat.
