A friend’s husband needed heart surgery, and she asked about timing

Client

I have a friend whose husband needs surgery now. Could I trouble you to help calculate whether this surgery should go ahead, and how big the risk is?

我有个朋友，她老公现在需要动手术，想麻烦你帮忙算一下，这个手术能不能动，风险有好大？

Zongyuan

Is this the person who just added me?

是刚才加我的那人么

Client

Mm, yes.

嗯，是的

Zongyuan

Then I won’t accept the friend request. You can pass the message along.

那我就不通过了你传话就行

Client

[redacted] The time is not very clear.

[redacted] 时间不是很清楚

Zongyuan

Then let’s do a divination instead.

那还是起卦吧

Client

Okay, okay.

好的，好的

[emoji]

Zongyuan

[redacted] A few points: 1. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular issues, with abnormal results in blood routine tests. 2. Metal element is drained; issues with bones, nerves, lungs, head, and intestines — prone to leaks, deficiencies, or weakness.

[redacted] 几个问题 1 心脑血管疾病，血常规中有不合规的。 2 金被泄，骨骼，神经，肺部，头部，肠道上有疾病，容易有漏，或者缺，无力。

10:45

The surgery will most likely need to be done. After the surgery, the Metal element will be stronger, and the condition will improve somewhat. But the month chosen should be one without strong Water influence — at least after July. If surgery is done this month (March), complications are more likely in April-May when Water is present, and physical condition will be relatively poor. Surgery in autumn is more favorable. Also, for doctor selection, [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] these are more suitable.

手术多数要做，做了之后金有力，疾病会有所好转，但是月份上要选不见水的，至少是7月之后了，如果选在3月本月手术，4-5月见水容易有并发症，身体素质就比较差了，秋季手术比较有利。再就是医生选择，[redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted]这几个比较合适。

Please take this.

请收

Client

His condition is quite serious now. They were originally planning to do a heart stent surgery, but because the blood vessel blockage is quite bad, the doctor now recommends switching to open-heart bypass surgery.

他这个病现在就是有点具体了，本来是准备做心脏支架手术的，但是因为血管堵塞比较糟糕，医生现在建议是喊走外科做心脏搭桥手术

And they say the sooner the better.

而且是越快越好

That’s the first issue I mentioned. He actually has some other internal health problems too — it’s not just this one issue.

这个就是我讲的第一个问题，然后他其实还有一些身体其他内部的这个疾病呢，它也不仅仅是这一个问题。

Zongyuan

I can pick a few dates in March for you, and the doctor choice also needs to align. But you should be prepared for this: what I’m saying is, even if the surgery goes well in March, the condition may be unstable in April, May, and June.

3月份我可以给你选几个日子，然后呢，医生上也得配合。但是你要做好一个准备。就是我最后说的就是你可能3月份做完手术还好，但是呢，到了四五六三个月。病情容易不太稳定。

3/12 3/16 3/18

Look at these dates. It cannot rain on the day.

看看这几个日子不能下雨

Also, tell him there’s a broken light in his home. Let me check the location — near the bathroom or near the kitchen. Ask him to look for it. A light strip or bulb is faulty; get it fixed as soon as possible, okay?

然后呢，你提醒他，他家里的灯坏了。这个灯我看一下位置啊，靠近洗手间或者靠近厨房附近。你让他找找吧。灯带或者灯泡有问题，尽快给他修好好吧。

10:55

Client

If he has the surgery in March, how big is the risk during the operation?

他这个在三月做手术的话，在手术中的风险大不呢？

Is heart bypass better for him, or heart stent?

他这个是做心脏搭桥好点呢？还是做心脏支架好点？

[emoji] Mm-hmm.

[emoji]嗯嗯嗯

11:08

If he has surgery in March, will the complications in April-June be very serious?

他如果3月份做了手术以后，4-6月的并发症会不会很严重?

Zongyuan

The complications are from Water and Fire clashing. They’ll focus on a few areas — you can give him a heads-up. First, still the blood, because improvement won’t be that fast; cardiovascular and cerebrovascular aspects. Second, nervous system issues: high anxiety, insomnia, inability to sleep. It’s quite a test for his mental and emotional state.

他这个并发症，水火交战，嗯，集中在这么几个方向啊，你可以给他打打预防针，第一个呢，是还是这个血液，因为它好转没这么快，心脑上。第2个是神经上很焦虑啊，失眠睡不着，就是对于这个人的情志的考验是挺大的。

As for improvement, around mid-June he’ll start to get better. Anyway, there are a few precautions. After the surgery is done, you can ask me again later. There are still some things to pay attention to during his recovery. For example, he must not go near bodies of water — that will easily worsen his symptoms. Also, people born in the Year of the Dragon, Year of the Rat, Year of the Pig — he should have less contact with them. Being around them can also amplify his symptoms.

嗯，好转的话，6月中左右啊，能好转反正几个注意事项吧。先做完手术之后，慢点，你再问我吧。他这个恢复期还是有一些要注意注意的这个事儿。比如说这个水便不能去了它容易加加重它的这种症状，再一个属龙的啊，属老鼠的属猪的对吧，少接触啊。接受完了之后，也容易放大他的这种症状。

Client

Do you mean places near water — like anywhere close to water — he shouldn’t go?

是不是水边，就是说靠近水的地方，都不去是吧?

Also, he himself was born in the Year of the Rat, and his wife was born in the Year of the Dragon. What can be done about that?

还有就是他本身是属鼠，而且他媳妇属龙，这个怎么办？

So that’s why he’s prone to getting sick, right? [redacted], he can’t change his own zodiac sign [redacted] Then for his wife, let his wife [redacted] [redacted] adjust accordingly.

那是那所以容易发病嘛，是吧？[redacted], 他自个儿这个就没办法调了[redacted]那他老婆这个让他老婆在[redacted] [redacted]合一下。

Then, if he’s being cared for at home, should we consider hiring a caregiver? For a caregiver, someone born in the Year of the Ox or Dog would work, right? It’s only for two or three months of care.

然后，如果是在家里照顾的话，是不是考虑找个护工？护工的话，属属牛属狗都行啊，反正照顾两三个月嘛。

The person taking care of him now was born in the Year of the Tiger — is that okay?

他现在照顾他的人，属虎，可以不呢？

Zongyuan

Not ideal.

差点儿意思

Client

For this one, we have to bow to you — three times even.

这一条，必须收下我们的膝盖，而且是三个

When you mentioned this issue this morning, my colleague said she just replaced the bathroom and kitchen lights before the Lunar New Year, so there should be no problem.

早上你说这个问题的时候，我同事还说，厕所和厨房的灯，她年前才换了的，应该没问题

Then at noon we told her to go back and check carefully again. She called me a little while later and said the light strip next to the dining room was broken 👍

然后中午我们就喊她回去，再仔细检查一下，她一会就给我打电话说，餐厅边上的灯带坏掉了👍

That’s really incredible.

实在是太牛了

Zongyuan

[emoji] Mm.

[emoji]嗯

Is the dining room next to the kitchen?

餐厅是靠厨房不

Client

Yes.

是的

Right next to the kitchen.

就在厨房旁边

It’s best if it lines up. Then also match the doctor element you mentioned.

能凑上就最好，然后呢，把那个医生的这个元素也给他配上。

Also, tell him there’s a broken light in his home. Let me check the location — near the bathroom or near the kitchen. Ask him to look for it. A light strip or bulb is faulty; get it fixed as soon as possible, okay?

然后呢，你提醒他，他家里的灯坏了。这个灯我看一下位置啊，靠近洗手间或者靠近厨房附近。你让他找找吧。灯带或者灯泡有问题，尽快给他修好好吧。

Zongyuan

If he has the surgery in March, how big is the risk during the operation?

他这个在三月做手术的话，在手术中的风险大不呢？

Client

There’s not much risk during the surgery itself, but the recovery period after the surgery —

手术中没有什么太大的风险，但是做完手术恢复期不

Then at noon we told her to go back and check carefully again. She called me a little while later and said the light strip next to the dining room was broken 👍 [emoji]

然后中午我们就喊她回去，再仔细检查查一下，她一会就给我打电话说，餐厅边上的灯带坏掉了👍[emoji]

That’s really incredible.

实在是太牛了

Zongyuan

😀 [emoji] Mm.

😀[emoji]嗯

Is the dining room next to the kitchen?

餐厅是靠厨房不

Client

Yes.

是的

Right next to the kitchen.

就在厨房旁边

Zongyuan

Mm, that fits quite well.

嗯，那挺符合的

Client

You’ve impressed us again.

又一次征服了我们

Zongyuan

😀 [emoji] 🌷 [emoji]

13:54

Client

You were also spot on about the condition. We didn’t even say what surgery he needed, but the first point from the divination was cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, plus abnormal blood work — that’s exactly the first surgery her husband is facing now.

病情你也很牛，都没有说需要做什么手术，卜卦出来的第一条就是心脑血管疾病，然后血常规不好，这就是她老公现在首先要经历的第一个手术

Zongyuan

Mm, yes 😀 [emoji]

嗯是😀[emoji]

Client

Last week they already scheduled an angiogram and were preparing to put in a stent, but the blood vessel condition was too bad, so the doctor recommended bypass surgery. Bypass requires open-heart surgery, and she was very worried about the risk during the operation. After you said today that there’s not much risk during surgery, that already gave her a lot of peace of mind.

上周都已经安排做造影，准备搭支架了，结果血管的情况太不好了，医生就建议搭桥，搭桥又要开胸，她很担心怕手中有风险，然后你今天说了手术中没有太大的风险后，就已经是给了她一个很大的定心丸了

13:59

Zongyuan

Mm, we’ll coordinate on other aspects. A good date + a good doctor + removing unfavorable things from the home — then there’s more assurance.

嗯其他方面我们多配合好日子+好医生+去掉家里不好的东西，那么就更有把握了。

He should also be careful in daily life. Don’t go to the places I mentioned, and have less contact with people of those specific zodiac signs.

日常自己再注意点，我讲的这些不要去的地方不接触，特定属相的人少接触。

Client

Mm, I’ve told her all that. It’s definitely best if she can meet all the standards you mentioned. But if she really can’t, then the places not to go and the people not to contact must be avoided.

嗯，我都给她说了，能达到你说的那些标准肯定是最好的，但是如果实在不能，不能接触的，不能去的地方，就一定要避免
