Audrey: Would you not have me honest?
Touchstone: No, truly, unless thou wert hard favoured; for honesty coupled to beauty is to have honey a sauce to sugar.

When you're trained as a doctor, you're taught to rule out the worst possible outcomes first.
I think that's making me look at the negative aspects of things first in my life too.
Is this how all doctors become pessimists?

Dan Brown's Inferno was much more effective in convincing me about population excess than Marvel's Thanos. And humane in solution as well.

I made the grave mistake of wearing a sweater in Ahmedabad evening today. Had to compensate by drinking 3 glasses of ice cold water!
Why Gujarat?

@DDDinesh1801 @drpraveenpsy 2. A patient came to me for chronic constipation. So I took her history and counselled her for half an hour about life style and dietary changes she should do. But in the end she interrupted me, asked for her pills and went away.
Also, what do you think we study in physiology?

For some reason, there is this new narrative on twitter that Ayurveda is outdated. Used to work earlier but doesn't anymore. There are many issues with this narrative: 1. This is contradictory. It admits that it used to work. So it was not a pseudo science. Because how can anything which works can be pseudoscience. And then says it doesn't anymore. If anything worked 200 or 2000 years back, it would be guaranteed to work even now. You can at best argue that you have more evolved systems now but can not say it doesn't work. Swords still 'work' and can kill a man even though we have brahmos missiles today. So people need to make up their mind if it ever worked or not. 2. Modern science is not an evolution of Ayurveda or Homeopathy. Both handle the disease very differently. The approach itself is different. Allopathy is very reactive. If disease is X, and we know Y counteracts X - then give Y to patient. Do 1000 trials to observe efficacy and side effects of Y and then approve it. Works. But Ayurveda tries to understand how did X start in the body. Basic science of Ayurveda is that any internal disease is caused by imbalance of body doshas. And then it attempts to cure those imbalances. Doesn't attempt to directly address X. Modern science is not there yet. It is not taking that approach. That's why it calls it pseudo science. That's why I say it will take another 40-50 yrs for modern science to reach that level. I don't know if it will ever credit Ayurveda even when it discovers those things or will just come up with new modern names for those branches of medicine. So no, it is not that Allopathy is an evolution of Ayurveda. The whole approach to cure a disease itself is different.

A lot of people think that when Indian modern medicine (allopathy) doctors question alternative medicines, we are being disrespectful to Hinduism.
That’s not true at all.
Most modern medicine doctors are religious. I myself keep a Goddess Saraswati idol on my desk and bookshelf.
Ayurveda is not religion; it represents a golden but older chapter of our civilization. Charak and Sushrut were great physicians of their time. But science evolves, and if any Ayurvedic or alternative medicine practices can be proven effective, modern medicine will embrace them.
But spurious claims — like alternative medicine doesn’t cause side effects or it treats the root cause of illness — will be called out.

They're gathering their wits before a long surgery. Are you against meditation too? Is that why you have no patience for 30 seconds of silence?!

This is what a decade of ruin in India, has brought medicine to. Reminded of a Vivek Tamil Dialogue: "There r 10,000 state-of-the-art mechanical parts in your vehicle. Is that lemon, hanging on your bonnet going to protect ur vehicle more than those top-class gadgets?" Yrs of hard, complex training, decades of experience, 100s of medical conferences,& some Drs hv come to this!

@DDDinesh1801 @drpraveenpsy Both statements are true!
They were great physicians, there's no doubt about that. But didn't humans invent mobiles, internet and space science between then and now?
Is it too stupid to think that what they did was great but a little outdated for today?
English
On one hand you are saying Charak and Sushrut (father of surgery) were great physicians. In the same breath, you are saying their methods are outdated and their medicines are not proven.
Make up your mind buddy. I know you feel torn between your profession and your Heritage but you don't really need to see it as opposites.
Ayurveda is our heritage. My belief is that Modern science is yet to come to that level to understand Ayurveda another 20-25 yrs at least. I have seen up cloae how it works for chronic diseases where allopathy just gives up.
English
@Mending_Kidneys @Kishann108 @drpraveenpsy The truth is that Ayurved was the "modern medicine" of 20th century. We were researching and advancing. That stopped being the case long ago.
So we all are proud of what we achieved back then, but how long will we shove these achievements under other people's nose when slighted?!

@Kishann108 @drpraveenpsy You know ATP was discovered by an Indian scientist , Yellapragada Subbarow.
It happened in the 20th century with the growth of science overall.
And this amazing Indian gentleman told us the physiology of energy currency which later grew into the kreb cycle.

Modern medicine (allopathy) treats symptoms.
Alternative medicine “cures” the root cause.
Sounds familiar? It’s the main marketing pitch of alternative medicine.
But ask a couple of questions, and the narrative fails.
What’s the root cause? The answer is usually, “It’s an imbalance of some doshas.”
What are doshas? How do we measure them? How do you know they are imbalanced? How do you know you are fixing the imbalance? — none of these questions get a clear answer.
Even modern medicine does not know the root cause of many ailments, but at least we acknowledge what we don’t know and treat according to the best available evidence.
Alternative medicine’s claims of curing the root cause are nothing but a lie.

@manaman_chhina @SSarthak1609 How do you know that they don't do 'pro bono every now & then'. We don't announce our charities to the world, coz' we'd be called out for doing bare minimum & wanting thanks.
Fun fact: Did you know that half of the government instruments are bought by resident doctors?
English
It’s not a question of choice. It is a question of limits. Even lawyers take pro bono cases. Can a specialist not look at one or two persons a day who cannot afford his fees? He has rent to pay, salaries to give, many other overheads and cannot be expected to run a charity. But surely one odd such case will not hurt.
English
Took my son to a doctor today as he is suffering from a viral infection. An elderly couple came at the reception. The gentleman was taken aback to hear the consultation fees of Rs 700. They decided to leave.
I had half a mind to request them to allow me to do the needful but it would have been an affront to their self respect.
But it brings home the reality of a searing increase in cost of living. Sarkari hospitals are choked to gills. Private medical care is prohibitively expensive. What does the common man do?

@rishsamjain First you want to establish your status by going to a higher end clinic, and when they charge accordingly, you're outraged.
Why not go to a government establishment where the cost is just 8 rupees?
