Dark-Haired British Doctor Chapter 230

Episode 230 Diabetes [4]

“As you can see, the dogs have diabetes.”

“I see.”

“That’s really amazing, isn’t it?”

“Indeed, Joseon… … .”

“How do you know? Shouldn’t you have a taste of it yourself, Professor? How can you tell if it’s urine or not just by looking at it like this… … Ugh!”

Everyone agreed with what I said.

Colin rebelled for a moment after being forced to drink Sir Jamie's cloudy urine…

What can I do?

Liston covered the guy's mouth.

How dare you say something like that in the face of the great advancements in medicine just because you drank a little urine?

'No… … Before, you even tried to drink shit water, right?'

Just do one thing, this is it, just one thing.

Don't make normal people feel wronged for no reason.

Anyway, I turned away from Colin and spoke to those ready for a more useful conversation.

“That means there is something in this pancreas. So what should we do to treat it?”

“How about attaching your pancreas?”

Yeah, I knew it.

Dreams of organ transplants… … .

It was time for honey.

However, it is no exaggeration to say that it is absolutely not possible until the mountain called immune response is overcome.

I'm not sure, but… … .

At this point, there will not be a single surgical procedure that involves inserting anything into the human body.

why?

Because we don't know how to suppress the reaction to foreign substances.

No, it's not that bad. I don't even know why I'm reacting to foreign substances.

“That might work. Let’s give it a try. There are two more dogs here.”

I know.

Taking the pancreases of these two poor dogs and putting them into the ones that were already gone… … is not murder, it just makes the killing a little more difficult.

But what can I do?

Scientists at this time were so courageous that when they got an idea, they tried it right away.

They say they do it without hesitation, even if it means conducting experiments on humans.

Arsenic was like that too, right?

'Despite that, they say they are still using arsenic little by little… … .'

I saw this advertising slogan on my way here today, not yesterday, saying, 'After applying arsenic wallpaper, the mice and pests disappeared!'

Those crazy guys… … .

The rat… … .

Why would those kids who can live fine even in the sewers not be able to live in your house and instead run away or die?

If you think about it even a little bit, you're dealing with a problem for which the answer will be obvious.

“Good. As expected, you’re very thoughtful.”

“I wonder if I became a professor at that age for nothing, haha.”

So, no one really objected to the suggestion to give it a try.

How can there be animal rights when there are no human rights?

Damien and Liston just laughed and looked at the poor dog.

The two dogs just whined miserably, not knowing whether they knew their fate or not.

what…….

It won't be a meaningless resection.

'The ones I weaned three days ago have already… … lost their flavor.'

Actually, removing the pancreas isn't an ordinary thing, is it?

I really hope there are antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs here.

There is nothing.

In the meantime, I had surgery, and as a result, my blood sugar level is skyrocketing.

Not only that, but whatever I eat doesn't digest properly.

Not only did he get diabetes, but his digestive enzymes were also eliminated.

It's a 19th century dog, so it survived until now, but it's a 21st century dog, right?

Died that day.

“But, you know, isn’t it true that transplanting a pancreas like this might be successful or not? If it fails, the patient will die. So I thought about it… … .”

“What do you think?”

“If you think about it, it may be vicious, but it will definitely be useful.”

“Okay, tell me.”

Damien, Liston, and the director were talking in that order.

Oh, why did the director come?

This was because diabetes was becoming quite a problem among the upper classes at this time.

I looked into it during my free time for a few days… … .

It wasn't enough to warrant the word 'quite'.

They say that if you develop the disease around age 30, you will usually die within 4 years.

Even in cases like type 1 diabetes, that is, juvenile diabetes, it is so severe that many people live less than a year.

Older people often live longer than that, but that's just the general population, and for people like Sir Jamie who have had their androgens removed, it could be as long as a year.

Anyway, since it was a time when I had to target the upper class to make money, and since the number of upper class patients had increased thanks to me, the director's interest in diabetes was bound to be great.

'Yes, if even the director steps forward, there's nothing we can't do.'

That guy has some nice moves, doesn't he?

After clearing my throat a bit, I continued speaking.

“It’s the juice extracted from the pancreas.”

“Juice… …?”

“I saw somewhere that if you squeeze and eat rooster body parts, your masculinity will improve.”

“Does that make sense?”

“Just listen first.”

"okay."

Liston was tilting his head, but I knew.

The fact that it was actually refreshing.

Maybe we should all buy some rooster body parts on the way there?

'I said I ate it on purpose, so… … .'

It has to be right to be effective.

When you eat something, whatever is inside it is digested and disappears.

But if I say they have to get it right, won't all these people get the shot?

What if I get sepsis because I didn't disinfect it properly?

I don't know if these people gathered here will make a great contribution to humanity or not, but at least they are helpful to me, so I had to lead them safely.

“Aren’t you saying that this is a disease caused by a lack of pancreatic function? Then wouldn’t it be solved if we gave something from the pancreas?”

“That makes sense.”

“But what other method is there besides a transplant?”

“Didn’t you say you were squeezing the juice? You seem to be stingy with your opinions, but you don’t listen to me.”

“I found out that there is a slaughterhouse nearby. I heard that they slaughter several cows a day… … What if I get a pancreas from there and squeeze the juice out of it? Of course, I have to check whether the cow pancreas will be effective or not.”

“Oh… … You’re giving it to me for free?”

“If you don’t give it to me, I’ll get it.”

“It’s sturdy.”

maybe…….

If my memory serves me right, they would have done this in the original history.

How on earth do you know this?

I know, because I have a friend who is crazy about diabetes.

When you work on academic affairs, there are bound to be things to do with kids from other departments as well… … .

Every time, they only talk about diabetes.

I thought he would stop talking after doing this for almost a year, but when he ran out of things to talk about, he told me about the history of diabetes.

'I'm sorry I got angry back then.'

Thanks to… … .

Come and use it.

“If you receive a pancreas like that… … you can’t just cut it out, right?”

"why?"

“It needs to be disinfected.”

"iced coffee."

“Lime chloride!”

disinfection…….

Well, that's not wrong.

But the cow's pancreas is actually clean.

Of course, it will get contaminated when you take it out… … .

But the reason I'm 'disinfecting and disinfecting' now is completely different.

“No, then… … You saw it then. It’s all going to be destroyed. You could just give them lime chloride… … Then would you live?”

“Ah… … I see.”

First, Joseph sank it.

Anything a crazy person does is talk about lime chloride.

To be honest, it's not like you can just use phenol.

Even though the smell isn't that great, it would be nice to wipe it off.

“I really thought about it carefully, and I was like, what about alcohol?”

"alcohol……?"

“That too… … Some disinfection is possible, but isn’t it difficult and troublesome to make?”

You have to use alcohol.

why?

Because it was the same in the history of the original.

If that was the case originally, you might think that I should change it for the better… … .

This is just about the perfect method.

'First of all… … it can eliminate all digestive enzymes.'

alcohol…….

Have you tried disinfecting a wound with this?

This is really fu*king painful.

If you destroy the organization indiscriminately.

Would digestive enzymes and such be able to withstand it?

'But I can't tolerate insulin.'

this…….

It's truly mystical.

I'm not sure how that's even possible.

But hang in there.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

Alcohol evaporates, and in fact, insulin does not dissolve well in alcohol.

“Alcohol dries, right? Of course, I don’t know if alcohol alone will be enough to disinfect things. So I thought about it again… … What if I make a very weak acidic solution?”

“Acid… …? Sulfuric acid?”

“That thing is already dirty, and you want to pour it on someone’s body?”

Liston and the director both looked at me with surprised faces.

Of course not.

Are you crazy?

Why put sulfuric acid in the human body?

That's the death penalty.

“It’s a very weak acid.”

“So, to what extent does that mean?”

However, I couldn't say whether he was crazy or not when asked the following question.

I don't know either.

It was okay though.

Anyway, the pancreas is free, and you can get a lot of it.

If people are bad… … .

The moment we realize we really need this pancreas, we might ask for money, but what if Liston steps in?

If you can ask for money like that, then you have to admit it.

Of course, I can guarantee that won't happen.

I can risk my life.

“I have to find out.”

"ah."

It was said that acidic solutions can dissolve insulin.

This does not mean that it is broken down, but rather that the insulin component is incorporated into it.

So, if you treat the pancreas with a mixture of alcohol and acidic solution, the digestive enzymes will be destroyed and only the insulin will be dissolved.

If you just leave the water, the alcohol will evaporate, so you can just inject it into the patient.

Of course, how much should be injected remains another issue.

It's okay to put in less.

It's just that the effect is a bit reduced.

But if you put too much in… … .

'You can kill people with insulin.'

It's not just talk, there are actually quite a few cases where it was used for murder.

It also appears in movies.

In Memento, there's a case where a husband with amnesia repeatedly injects his wife with insulin, causing her death. This is actually cute.

There are many cases where it was originally used for murder purposes.

'I guess I'll figure this out little by little, too.'

I think we're going to need a lot of dogs.

I heard that more than a dozen were sacrificed in the history of Yuan, but at the time, I just thought they were really uncivilized.

Now that I actually try to do it, I think I was lucky.

I think if you don't know for sure, you'll end up swearing.

If you know the whole story, you won't be angry.

Rather, if admiration comes, it doesn't come out… … .

“Then let’s go to the slaughterhouse first.”

“Yes. Let me get some pancreas.”

“Okay. Let’s go.”

“Yes, brother.”

Anyway, the group completely fell for my excuse.

disinfection…….

I'm so glad I went to Paris.

If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have even had a concept of disinfection…

How on earth do you convince someone in that situation?

That doesn't make sense.

Of course, even if you get the concept, this is not an easy task.

How can you convince someone that they need to use alcohol and acid at the same time?

'Is this why I came over?'

Let's shake off the beak well so that more people can be saved…

I'm the only one who can do that.

I cleared my throat once more and got into the carriage with Liston.

I was planning to go to the slaughterhouse and steal, no, borrow, the pancreas.
