A. Today, one person who recently turned 50 consulted me in OPD. He has no symptoms & is healthy. He has no known diseases. He wanted a check up & advice to ensure he does not convert into a patient for as long as possible. I love this concept of disease prevention.
#MedTwitter
B. It is possible to prevent most of the serious diseases by following healthy lifestyle and proper medical care.
These include:
1. Regular sleep: 7-8 hours per night
2. Regular exercise: 30-40 minutes daily for 5 or more days a week; 9-10 k steps/day; strength training
3. Healthy diet: low carb, high protein diet;
avoid sugar & ultraprocessed packaged foods;
eat fresh fruits & vegetables, handful of nuts per day; early dinner (3-4 hours before sleeping time);
reduce feeding time window;
intermittent fasting at least on a few days per month

I went to #Islamabad #PIMS a day earlier and asked for rabies #vaccine, #rabies is a deadly virus and there's 100% chance a person will die if vaccination isn't administered on time. However, the person in the picture, at #PIMS's pharmacy,

told me very arrogantly to buy and administer the vaccine somewhere else. When I asked for his name, he hesitated, but when I insisted, he said I'm the director and there is no one you can go to and complain.

I requested him that I can afford the vaccine but what about those who may not afford the same, and that I am a citizen of #Pakistan and I am aware of my rights, thus let me lodge a formal complaint to the relevant department so the problem may soon be resolved.

her saying that she is an iphone is dehumanization.

A teenager whose unusual #disease forced him to live a #lonely life

1. Sam was a bubbly kid until the age of 8, when his parents noted that he would blink his eyes on an off. This did not trouble Sam, however, he was taken for an eye check up, which didn't show any abnormality.
2. Two years later, he started shrugging his shoulder and would occasionally hop on one leg. This would repeat 5-6 times in a day. Sam had no control on these movements. Again, this did not bother Sam but his parents were perturbed. They thought Sam is being naughty.
#MedTwitter
3. By age 12, Sam started to make some unusual sounds, as if he is clearing his throat or grunting. Sam had no control on these sounds too.
His friends had started making fun of him. He could suppress them for a few minutes, however, after that, movements & sounds would return.

A #runner who would #swing his left arm more than the right
1. I have been running outdoors for two years. Over a period of time, one gets familiar with fellow runners- specially their style, pace & endurance. This post is about one of those runners, who was a regular (like me)😆
2. He had one odd style- he would swing his right arm lesser than the left while #running or #walking.
He would continue in the same style for about 60-70 minutes of his #RUN.
His #pace was excellent- 60 minutes for a 10 km run.
#MedTwitter #neurotwitter
3. Our interaction was limited to "Good mornings".
Six months had passed since I first saw him. At this point, I noted that I could outpace him on a few occasions (I was much slower than him to start with).
I had started to think about possibility of a #neurological #disease.

Case of a woman whose shoe size increased from 5 to 7 over two years

1. It was an usual OPD, when I was counselling one of my patients with back pain about exercise, diet and correct posture. Incidentally, I noticed his wife's face who was sitting beside the patient.
#MedTwitter
2. Her nose & lips appeared a bit larger than usual. When she smiled, her teeth were little spaced out and tongue was also little larger than normal. She spoke with a little heavy voice.
Being a #neurologist, I was imagining the possibility of a brain #disease.
#neurotwitter
3. I asked her- "Don't mistake me, but has your shoe size increased?" Her eyes almost popped out. She replied with a shocked expression- "doc, yes! It has increased from 5 to 7 in the past two years. Don't everyone's feet become larger as they grow older?"
She was 37-year-old now

Its always difficult to take the first step, its always challenging to dive into a new domain. Happy that all the hard works brought the fruit eventually. Read our work from @RajeshPandeyLab @IGIBSocial @AcSIR_India on #singlecell #multiomics
The story highlights how important it is to understand the effect of #SARSCoV2 even after recovered from #COVID19 and how strength of #MachineLearning can be used for developing #disease #Biomarkers
This was indeed a challenging task, both on #Biology and #Bioinformatics front, but learnt a lot apart from the science part of it, especially #teamwork and #timemanagement.

I continually see research papers and presentations given on how #childhood #trauma relates to likelihood of #chronicpain.

While I do not dismiss this may be a factor, I am very frustrated at the lack of introspection by many #physicians where #medicaltrauma due to care that 1/
was dismissive, shaming, manipulative and lacked transparency does a great deal of harm leading to PTSD & I would postulate the worsening of #pain & or #disease. It’s as if the model, is backwards. Don’t get me wrong I absolutely believe #trauma can have long lasting impacts 2/
impacts that impact multiple areas. What I don’t understand is how many physicians don’t understand how care for children & youth w #rare or #complex #health issues or/and ones that include #pain can lead to #MH issues (not always be the cause). Why is it difficult for some 3/

Day 1 - The return of Gaur in Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve !!!
1/7 Image
#Gaur the largest #bovine in peninsular #India, was previously found in three discreet populations in Southern India (Western Ghats and #Nilgiri plateau), Central India (#Vidarbha, southern MP, #Chhattisgarh and Eastern ghats in #Odisha) and North-East India.
2/7
Gaur were historically found in #Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve in small numbers. There were around 30-35 Gaur in BTR in the early 1990s, which had dwindled to just one individual in 1996 and zero in 1998.
