57-year-old Shen Yulin was hospitalized at the end of last month and diagnosed with leukemia. He is currently undergoing treatment in the hospital. Today (22nd), he posted a long message on Facebook sharing the details of the onset and clarified that he was diagnosed with leukemia as soon as he was admitted, stressing, 'I'm neither a hepatitis B carrier nor have I taken too many health supplements. Many people are discussing the reason for my illness, but the person in the world who wants to know the most is definitely me.'
Shen Yulin mentioned that two months ago, he first felt listless and emotionally low, then became so tired he couldn't walk more than ten steps without feeling exhausted. Most of the time, he just sat on the sofa without moving. During recordings, he had to muster his energy to keep going, and by the end of July, he could only walk five steps before needing to rest.
Shen Yulin originally thought he had autonomic nervous system disorder, so over the next few days he sought psychiatric and psychological treatment. After taking medication, his mood improved, 'but the problem of getting tired after just a few steps kept getting worse. I didn't even have enough energy to take a full shower.'
On 7/28, the day Shen Yulin was scheduled to see the psychiatrist, he almost fainted just walking to the elevator, 'When the elevator reached the B3 parking lot, I couldn't help but lean against the car door and vomit violently. Then, barely able to catch my breath, I told Yaya, "I can't make it to the clinic, I want to go home."' In the end, it was his wife Yaya's insistence that made him go to the emergency room, where his hemoglobin was only 2.6, and he was diagnosed with leukemia shortly after. He said, 'My wife has always brought me good luck, and this decision of hers saved my life.'
Shen Yulin also gave an update at the end of his message, emphasizing that he does not have fulminant hepatitis, neither hydrocephalus, nor is he a carrier of hepatitis B, nor does he have multiple organ failure, and has not suffered organ damage due to the illness. According to later test results, all his other functions are normal: no high blood pressure, blood pressure is normal, inflammation index is normal, his appetite is better than before hospitalization, and he has even gained three kilograms. 'I'm currently receiving expert treatment from Professor Hou Xin-An at NTU Hospital, my recovery is progressing very smoothly, and I’ll see everyone soon.'
