The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 7112

Hank’s rising CA199 index finally made more than a dozen people realize that Charlie Wade had a mysterious ability to predict life and death.

At this moment, Hank was terrified. He quickly received an injection of a contrast agent and was rolled into the hospital’s CT scan room.

The large machines around him were loud and shook intensely, making his anxiety grow even more.

In the past, these advanced machines symbolized the power of technology and wealth to him, providing a sense of safety. But now, they filled him with dread.

The scan took a long time because it had to go around his entire body twice, making the wait feel even more torturous for Hank. Just when he thought he couldn’t take it anymore, the machine finally stopped and released him from its grip.

The lead door that protected against radiation opened slowly. A private doctor and several nurses swiftly moved him onto a mobile bed and took him back to his ward.

On the way, Hank couldn’t help but ask, “What are the scan results?”

The private doctor replied, “Mr. Hank, please don’t worry. The scan data is extensive and needs to be analyzed by the computer. Please wait in your ward. Dr. Johnson, your attending doctor, will come to inform you as soon as we have results. I won’t waste time relaying messages.”

“Okay…” Hank nodded slightly, but his anxiety only grew.

In the ward, Hank lay in despair for half an hour. Finally, the attending doctor entered and walked straight to Hank’s bed. He spoke seriously, “Mr. Hank, we have analyzed your scan…”

The results showed that the position of your pancreas looks abnormal when viewed with the contrast agent. We brought in several specialists to review the images, and they all agreed that it indicates pancreatic cancer.”

Hank quickly asked, “Can we confirm this just from the images?”

Johnson nodded. “Yes, the images and the abnormal CA199 levels strongly suggest pancreatic cancer. However, we still need to confirm it with pathology results. Pathology is the most important step.”

Hank pressed on, “What should I do next? How advanced is my pancreatic cancer?”

Johnson replied, “We believe this is still an early stage of pancreatic cancer. The last examination was normal, and the scans didn’t show any lymph node involvement or distant spread.”

“That’s a relief!” Hank sighed, knowing that early-stage cancer has a much higher chance of being treated successfully.

However, Johnson remained serious. “Mr. Hank, pancreatic cancer is known for having a poor prognosis. Even in the early stages, if we perform a complete pancreatectomy, the five-year survival rate is the lowest among all cancers.”

Hank asked, a bit anxious, “The lowest? There’s not even a chance of it being the best?”
