Dear SIr/Madam, My Mother age is 60 Years and height is 5.1 and her weight is 60-65 kgs. She is a diabetic from last 25-30 years and taking insulin 3 times before meals. Last month on dated 15.09.16 she had pains in all her body and mouth was curving to one side like paralyzed and she stopped some time while talking. We immediately rush to hospital at that time her BP was 95/180 and sugar level at 210 at home. Doctor took tests and CT all was in normal and discharged after 3 days once stabled. But she was not well and weaken after discharge and she was on medicines MEGATRON 10 MG CAP GABAVAL 1 TAB plagerine A TAB ZYCIOL 500 MG CAP ELREB DSR 1 TAB ELDO 30 MG TAB AMLONG 5 MG she was again admitted in hospital on dated 22.09.16 due to Electrolytes imbalanced after analyse thru tests but why electrolytes imbalanced after discharge. Please advice if you can this is due to medicines and was there in observation for 10 days. Now a days from 1.5 months she is taking DIVINE OD 500, BETA CAP 40, PREGABA 75 MG CAP PGM 75, ECOSPRIN AV 75/10. This was the whole story but I am not convinced with the treatment I want to know what happened 1st time when she admitted and why electrolytes suddenly gone to lower side.

To know the whole things you have to understand basics of medical science. As of stopping medicine, pl do not think of it. Having been dependent on such drugs for three decades, you can't switch to other things suddenly and that too at this stage. When chemical diuretics are given (in HTN/ oedema/ renal problems etc), electrolyte depletion takes place as a side effect such as potassium depletion etc which is again supplied through potassium drugs. This vicious cycle goes in. Here Ayurveda is different. SLOW but natural. Diuretics are such that there would not be electrolyte imbalance/ depletion. But this doesn't mean that allopathy is bad. It has wonderful life saving developments to its credit. On the other hand Ayurveda's stress on lifestyle and natural medicine has wonderful results but its limited too esp in critical life conditions. Need is to respect both approaches where needed. It has to be understood by both ailing humanity and medical fraternity. I would suggest you to gradually supplement your mother's treatment with herbals for introducing little comfortable life ahead without compromising on medical facilities. If agree, pl consult with more details.
