Reported 12 months ago
A 53-year-old man who had surgery for acute myocardial infarction 6 years ago did not follow up with medical care, continued smoking, drinking, and betel nut, resulting in another heart attack recently. Despite emergency treatment and stent placement in the past, his clean blood vessels became narrow again. The man's disrespectful behavior towards medical staff and non-adherence to medication and unhealthy habits leave doctors questioning the appropriate level of care. The physician expresses frustration with the challenging and demanding nature of medical work and emphasizes the importance of patient cooperation. Three points to consider include the importance of quitting smoking, adhering to prescribed medications, and showing empathy towards healthcare professionals.
