@docakx @DocPriyamMD I've seen Hb of 3 and mostly the patient wouldn't even lift a finger but 1 still walking on her own,yhoo 🙄
English

@DocPriyamMD This is very low values for a human being. It is a wonder how she could even walk. Fortunately iron deficiency can be cured.

Saw a patient today with a hemoglobin of 1.9 g/dL. For context, a level that low is almost incompatible with normal consciousness, but she walked right into the clinic on her own feet.
For three long years, she lived with crushing weakness and since last 6 months breathlessness from just walking across a room. Why didn’t she get help sooner? At first, it was because the kids had crucial school exams and later her husband was reluctant to deal with the hassle of a hospital admission.
Her health was treated as a background inconvenience.
When we dug deeper, it got worse. A year ago, her Hb was 6.4 g/dL. A doctor explicitly told them she needed immediate admission. The family refused, walked out with a basic strip of iron tablets, she took them for two weeks, forgot about them, and nobody in the house ever bothered to check on her or remind her.
She didn't even come to the hospital today because of the air hunger. She came because her periods had completely stopped for months. Her body was so profoundly starved of iron and oxygen that it literally shut down her reproductive axis just to divert what little blood she had left to her heart and brain.
It’s completely heartbreaking. A woman will literally bleed her body dry, gasp for air for years and keep working silently, only to be brought to a doctor when her normal functioning stops.
Please check on the women in your homes. Stop letting them normalize chronic exhaustion.

@zynnitta_true Who even enjoys watching these sex scenes? They're so cringe

So Bonko Khoza wasn’t supposed to Thrust with his penis against her vagina (both where fully clothed)it wasn’t scripted
I need actors or directors to fully explain to us what must happen exactly on the sex scene because we as viewers always assume they thrust with genitals?
Growing up I thought actors used a pillow in between

@IntercapeBus @IntercapeBus your poor service is unacceptable and disappointing.

❤️🔥 Why is Diclofenac linked with higher cardiovascular (CV) risk?
Diclofenac is basically the “most cardiotoxic NSAID” — and here’s the simple science behind it:
⸻
🔥 1️⃣ More COX-2 selective → more thrombotic risk
Diclofenac is technically a non-selective NSAID,
but functionally it behaves more like a COX-2 inhibitor.
👉 COX-2 ↓ → Prostacyclin (PGI₂) ↓
•PGI₂ normally prevents platelet aggregation
•PGI₂ dilates blood vessels
•PGI₂ protects the heart
So when PGI₂ falls, you get:
⚡ ↑ Platelet activity
⚡ ↑ Vasoconstriction
⚡ ↑ Thrombosis
This pushes the patient toward MI and stroke.
⸻
🔥 2️⃣ COX-1 (thromboxane) remains active
Platelets still produce thromboxane A₂, which promotes:
•Vasoconstriction
•Platelet aggregation
So now the balance shifts toward more clotting because PGI₂ (the protective factor) is suppressed more than thromboxane.
⸻
🔥 3️⃣ Raises BP + increases fluid retention
Diclofenac can cause:
•Sodium retention
•Fluid overload
•Increased blood pressure
→ All of these stress the heart and worsen underlying CAD.

Ukuzala is not for weak boys.
I remember while chilling with the gents, kwafika uBaby mama womunye umjita. She left us with a 3 months child and her excuse was that she must go back to varsity yena. She didn't even spend 5 minutes, she decided to put the baby on the couch, opened the door and left. When we tried to go after her, the Uber was gone.
It was four of us, just like that the baby started crying. Lapho umjita is stressed he is saying, “Ngizofika ngithini edladleni with this child”. Sithi mthathe yingane yakho le bro, ungayisabi, when he picked the child up sibone le ndawo elapha ekhanda phezulu going up and down ngathi yinhliziyo. Umjita shouted with shock, “Yhoo! Ine disability bafethu le ntwana”. Sibuze why are you saying that? Athi inenhliziyo ekhanda, when we check, Aibo! Nansi iyashaya gugum!!...gugum!!. Sonke now we are shocked and panicking.
That time the child hasn't stopped crying. Ngibuze umjita ukuthi ngubani igama layo? Athi “Bafo angiyazi, it's the first time I see lentwana”. Sikhuphe amaPhone sonke and went to Google, typed “Baby cry, why?”. UGoogle did not help. Sithe sisabhekile uSiyamnika is busy ubetha iBraai Pack phansi, Sibuze wenzani ndoda? USiyamnika replied “Ilambile le ntwana, ngenza ukudla”. That time wonke umuntu ukhulumela phezulu, no one is listening to the other one. Kuthiwe ndoda ayinamazinyo le ntwana, idla ubisi. Sonke sigcwale indlu and start looking for milk, we couldn't even find Cremora.
We decided that we should just request an Uber and go to town. Uber driver wayishaya yagcwali indlela imoto. Sathi sifika eMall, we pushed everything and everyone in front of us as we went to Clicks. Sangena eClicks, when we look next to us nangu noUber Driver uhamba nathi naye he is pushing people, he doesn't want to hear any stories.
We asked one of the ladies working at Clicks to show us the right milk and she even decided to make it for us. We fed the child yavele yathula same time intwana. While we were still at the mall we kept arguing who must hold the child while we also tried to act cool, calm and collected so the security guards don't say anything, when we passed by the security guards sivele sithi “Yes nogada, uyayazi iFather figure wena?”. That time people are smiling at us, sibone ukuthi iFathers day ibuzwa kithi. Leya ntwana ina 5 years manje, we still don't know his name. We make sure that uMama wayo doesn't come close siz’khulisele lentwana.
Kizolo we bought him pizza, when when we arrived he was watching amaWrong Turn, we know izoba brave too much le ntwana. 🔥😭.
