She was generally healthy and well controlled with diabetes and Hypertension which she had for many years. She was under my care for the last few years For all assumptions she would live a few more years very healthily. Her children were all involved in taking care keeping her healthy and happy. The family was very loving to the elderly mother. She slipped in her house and fell down and developed a fracture of the neck of femur. This warranted a surgery. The children agreed to surgery. They selected a very good surgeon in their area and got her admitted to a very good hospital.   The surgery went on very well. There were no complications or post-operative anxiety. The patient was admitted to the hospital for 10 days a...

Migraine…… We Can Learn To Live Happily.

  Migraine…… We Can Learn To Live Happily . I had a young patient today in my OPD. She came with persistent Migraine headache. Was on all types of medications including various pathies. I asked for a CT scans before prescribing any medication…. The poor girl had a brain tumour. Migraines are common especially in ladies. There are no specific tests or clinical markers, but I believe we must rule out any specific cause of headache before labelling them as MIGRAINES. YES quite a few of you who read this are pretty familiar or are having migraines which vary from mild headaches to excruciating unbearable throbbing headaches usually on one side with nausea and or unbearable vomiting. Doctors call them as a variety of types of migraines. I am sure that does not help the sufferer. The sufferer of migraine wants relief from the unbearable pain which is possible if he starts understanding the ordeal and attending to it.   However the migraine suffers are mostly intelligent people a...

  We have seen a number of covid patients dying in post covid time because of heart problems. In covid the heart is damaged. Most of the hospitals do not recognize this and the patients land up into a bad situation. The best test for this is Echocardiography with AFI which gives an accurate awareness of the damage to the heart muscle.    I am presenting my own echo report which shows a massive damage to the myocardium which was recognized and well treated by me. The post 3 months echo shows an absolute recovery. What matters is a proper evaluation of heart and proper treatment.          This again adds to my claim that nobody with covid should die today. What is required is the right diagnosis and right treatment. ECHO DURING COVID ECHO 3 MONTH POST- COVID   Dr. DIGAMBAR

No one should die in Covid-19 (SARS- COV-2) infection

No one should die in Covid-19 (SARS- COV-2) infection           All over the world there are a number of people who have lost their lives to Covid-19 infection. I have personally gone through the Covid hole, stayed there for 15 days and come out of it alive and strong. Here is a short summary of the way how we can avoid a death in this covid hole. Let me begin by saying covid is not a simple flu. It affects every system of our body. It needs proper treatment. If we manage this disease well nobody should die. 1.     A correct awareness about this disease is important. This disease can be and should be avoided in first stage. When you get infected, by about 10 days, the virus dies and then depending upon viral load and your immune status, you land up into a stage called cytokine storm. This storm is an erratic hyper immune response of your body to the virus attack. By 10 th day there is no live virus in your body. Though y...

COW’S MILK AND HUMAN

Image
    We have been consuming milk from other animals for ages. Our belief has been that we become stronger by external milk consumption…. Though nobody knows the meaning of this word stronger in this situation.   Today our scientific   thought is contradictory to this.   1...Is there any animal in the universe who drinks milk from another mother? 2...The constitution of cow’s or other milk differs from human milk in more than one way. So also the human gastrointestinal tract is much different than the cow. The functionality and the pH at various parts of the cow's gut is different from that of the man. Obviously there are digestive and immunological differences between the two. Today we know clearly that our gut has full influence on our brain and our whole immune and endocrine systems. 3...The antibodies, allergens and pathogens in cow's and human milk differ. Obviously the immunological reactions will be different. This will create a chronic in...
