They pirai Ashtami is an important day for Bairavar
Poojai. If one is not able to visit the Temple, they may
chant the following the mantra at home itself after drawing
a Soolam at the South Wall. This will relieve lot of problems
of a person.


ஓம் ஏம் ஐம் க்லாம் க்லீம் க்லூம்

ஹ்ராம் ஹ்ரீம் ஹ்ரூம் சகவம்ஸ
ஆபதுத்தோரணாய அஜாமிள பந்தநாய லோகேஸ்வராய
ஸ்வர்ணாகர்ஷண பைரவாய மமதாரித்ரிய வித்வேஷணாய
ஓம் ஸ்ரீம் மஹா பைரவாய நமஹ

Dear Renu,

I have never heard of japtap swamiji. Sai lives on through him and many more devotees like you.
 
post 3592. Patients loves you so that they wish to meet you on some reason or other.
 
If one uses his left and right it means his both sides of brain working very fine.


I was born as a left hander.. In younger days because of coercion by parents I started using right hand for writting, eating, giving, taking etc.. but I depends upon my left hand mostly for all other activities ..In sports I can use my left hand for batting and right hand for bowling.. similarly both hands used on different sports...

Now how I will be called ? ..

"both sides of brain working very fine." This is not correct as most of my associates will vouch I don't have anything by such name ..

HOW INDIAN DOCTORS TREAT PATIENTS....PLEASE READ PATIENTLY.... This mail
was sent to me by a friend and the same is submitted just for information only.

Dr. B.M. Hegde has written two books and it is a must for every one to read.
'What doctors do not study in Medical colleges'
Now he is bold to reveal all these.

This is from Dr. B M Hegde. Collected from a Mail.
Wonder how much is widespread and how many are merely a few black sheep.
How Indian Doctors conduct the Patients.

Most of these observations are either completely or partially true.
Corruption has many names, and one of civil society isn't innocent
either. Professionals and businessmen of various sorts indulge in
unscrupulous practices. I recently had a chat with some doctors,
surgeons and owners of nursing homes about the tricks of their trade.
Here is what they said

1) 40-60% kickbacks for lab tests. When a doctor (whether family
doctor / general physician, consultant or surgeon) prescribes tests -
pathology, radiology, X-rays, MRIs etc. - the laboratory conducting
those tests gives commissions. In South and Central Mumbai -- 40%. In
the suburbs north of Bandra -- a whopping 60 per cent! He probably
earns a lot more in this way than
the consulting fees that you pay.

2) 30-40% for referring to consultants, specialists & surgeons.
When your friendly GP refers you to a specialist or surgeon, he gets
30-40%.

3) 30-40% of total hospital charges. If the GP or consultant
recommends hospitalization, he will receive kickback from the private
nursing home as a percentage of all charges including ICU, bed,
nursing care, surgery.

4) Sink tests. Some tests prescribed by doctors are not needed.
They are there to inflate bills and commissions. The pathology lab
understands what is unnecessary. These are called "sink tests"; blood,
urine, stool samples collected will be thrown.

5) Admitting the patient to "keep him under observation". People
go to cardiologists feeling unwell and anxious. Most of them aren't
really having a heart attack, and cardiologists and family doctors are
well aware of this. They admit such safe patients, put them on a
saline drip with mild sedation, and send them home after 3-4 days
after charging them a fat amount for ICU, bed charges, visiting
doctors fees.

6) ICU minus intensive care. Nursing homes all over the suburbs
are run by doctor couples or as one-man-shows. In such places, nurses
and ward boys are 10th cl-ass drop-outs in ill-fitting uniforms and
bare feet. These "nurses" sit at the reception counter, give
injections and saline drips, perform ECGs, apply dressings and change
bandages, and assist in the operation theatre. At night, they even sit
outside the Intensive Care Units; there is no resident doctor. In case
of a crisis, the doctor -- who usually lives in the same building --
will turn up after 20 minutes, after this nurse calls him. Such ICUs
admit safe patients to fill up beds. Genuine patients who require
emergency care are sent elsewhere to hospitals having a Resident
Medical Officer (RMO) round-the-clock.

7) Unnecessary caesarean surgeries and hysterectomies. Many
surgical procedures are done to keep the cash register ringing.
Caesarean deliveries and hysterectomy (removal of uterus) are high on
the list. While the woman with labour -pains is screaming and
panicking, the obstetrician who gently suggests that caesarean is best
seems like an angel sent by God! Menopausal women experience bodily
changes that make them nervous and gullible. They can be frightened by
words like " and "fibroids" that are in almost every normal woman's
radiology reports. When a gynaecologist gently suggests womb removal
"as a precaution", most women and their husbands agree without a
second's
thought.

8) Cosmetic surgery advertized through newspapers. Liposuction
and plastic surgery are not minor procedures. Some are
life-threateningly major. But advertisements make them appear as easy
as facials and waxing. The Indian medical council
has strict rules against such misrepresentation. But nobody is
interested in taking action.

9) Indirect kickbacks from doctors to prestigious hospitals. To
be on the panel of a prestigious hospital, there is give-and-take
involved. The hospital expects the doctor to refer many patients for
hospital admission. If he fails to send a certain number of patients,
he is quietly dumped. And so he likes to admit patients even when
there is no need.

10) "Emergency surgery" on dead body. If a surgeon hurriedly wheels
your patient from the Intensive Care Unit to the operation theatre,
refuses to let you go inside and see him, and wants your signature on
the consent form for "an emergency
operation to save his life", it is likely that your patient is already
dead. The "emergency operation" is for inflating the bill; if you
agree for it, the surgeon will come out 15 minutes later and report
that your patient died on the operation table. And then, when you take
delivery of the dead body, you will pay OT charges,
anaesthesiologist's charges, blah-blah-

Doctors are humans too. You can't trust them blindly. Please
understand the difference.

Young surgeons and old ones. The young ones who are setting up nursing
home etc. have heavy loans to settle. To pay back the loan, they have
to perform as many operations as possible. Also, to build a
reputation, they have to perform a large number of operations and
develop their skills. So, at first, every case seems fit for cutting.
But with age, experience and prosperity, many surgeons lose their
taste for cutting, and stop recommending operations.

Physicians and surgeons. To a man with a hammer, every problem looks
like a nail. Surgeons like to solve medical problems by cutting, just
as physicians first seek solutions with drugs. So, if you take your
medical problem to a surgeon first, the chances are that you will
unnecessarily end up on the operation table. Instead, please go to an
ordinary GP first

I am sure we can locate them if we look around us.
They can't be far away from you I am sure! :)
No wonder Sachin became great .
He has part of Arjun's name as his OWN. :thumb:

I always call him Savyasachin!

Hey VR ji..if he is Arjuna reborn where are my other 4 Poorva Janma Patis?
 
The left hand right hand rule is a kind of traffic control
for the basic functions requiring only one hand
and also for the purpose of hygiene. :decision:

I am sure we want to keep the input and output passages
free of contamination by each other! :rolleyes:

Hands can be used to hold a gun and shoot too!
Hands are just the instrument of the mind.
Hands do what the mind desires.
 
Patients are getting weirder!LOL

I had a patient who came for her monthly pregnancy check up(I am not a gyneacologist..but as a general practitioner we do Ultrasounds,monthly check up etc and refer them to hospital for delivery)

Ok..she had some complain that required some cream and some tablets.
So she asked me "Doc can I have a cream for this problem?"

I said "yes..you can..I will give it to you"

Then she says "No actually I already have it at home"

Then I told her "Ok then use what you have"

Then she asked me "Can I have the tablets instead?"

I said "fine I will give it to you shortly"

Then she said "No No I actually have that at home"

Then I asked her "May I know why you are asking me when you already have it at home"

She said "I was simply asking for no reason"


I was thinking "what a nut case..asks irrelevant questions!"

Even when you check her BP she will say its painful..while doing ultrasound she will be screaming in pain.

She even says its painful when I check her pulse.

By extrapolation we can assume that
if you had asked "Do need a man to help you?"
she would have replied,
"I will use the one I have at home!" :becky:
I am sure she has a real cause for some pain.
Since she can't let it out, she projects it one everything else!!!
 
You know how it FEELS to be on either side of the consulting table! :cool:

BTW when I am a patient..I do not take much of the doctors time.
I see how many files he/she has on her table and then I cut my questions short so that the doctor gets time to see other patients.

I know how it feels when you have many patients to see and you are held up becos of one patient.

So I am a very considerate patient.
