HE IS 29. HIS KIDNEYS HAVE FAILED. AND HE HAD NO IDEA.
I am holding a lab report that shouldn't belong to someone this young. At 29, you are supposed to be at your peak. Instead, this patient is facing a reality that has completely turned his world upside down
The Number: 33.01 mg/dl.
To put this in perspective, a normal Creatinine is around 1.0.
When I saw 33.01, it wasn't just a lab error. It was a siren.
His Urea is 340.12 (Normal is <40).
At these levels, the blood is no longer just "unhealthy"...it is becoming toxic to the brain, the heart, and every vital organ. This is a state of extreme uremia that most people don't survive long enough to walk into a clinic with.
The Silent Trap:
👉He didn’t have "excruciating" pain. He had:
1️⃣Vague fatigue he blamed on his job.
2️⃣Mild swelling he thought was just from sitting too long.
3️⃣A general feeling of being "off" that he ignored for months.
Because he "looked fit" and was under 30, he assumed he was invincible. By the time he reached the ER, the window for simple fixes had slammed shut.
The Reality Check:
❌ Your age is not a shield against chronic disease.
❌ "Feeling fine" is not a substitute for objective data.
❌ A routine blood test takes 10 minutes; a lifetime of dialysis takes 12 hours a week.
The Final Lesson:
Listen to your body. You don't need to live in a state of constant fear or health anxiety. You don't need to overstress about every minor ache. But you must be an active participant in your own health.
If something feels wrong, don't bury it under "busy-ness." Get your basic labs done once a year. Your career, your meetings, and your deadlines can all wait. Your health is the only thing that won't wait for a better time.
Check your labs. Then go live your life.
A fraud calling himself doctor was trying to fool people through Instagram reels
He decided to take his business ahead and came to shark tank
Sharks exposed him so bad that he not only ran away ashamed but also removed Dr from his name 😆
Satisfying.
Travelling by Metro train and am leisurely observing everyone...
More than 50% of people in my compartment have Acanthosis Nigricans - those dark hyperpigmented velvety patches on the back of the neck, armpits, groin folds, in the folds of skin on the abdomen....
Obviously, I can only observe the necks and that's what I am doing. Some of the people have it faint and in some its quite dark.
Young, old, females, males, children, teens...no one is spared.
Even the people who look slim from behind have it, and lo and behold when I see them from the front, they have a good potbelly/paunch...not surprising.
Acanthosis is one of the first signs of Insulin Resistance, which is the precursor of Diabetes and other metabolic disorders.
Solution:
Cut the junk. Cut the carbs. Cut the fats. Increase protein. Lose weight. Exercise. Move a lot. Sleep well. Reduce stress.

Me: "Your LDL is 180. We need to start a statin."
Patient: "I don't want chemicals. I'll control it with diet."
Me: "Okay. See you in 3 months."
3 months later:
LDL: 185.
Diet: Same.
Exercise: None.
Patient: "Maybe I need something stronger than diet."
We lost 3 months. The plaque didn't wait.
Patient: I’ve had the worst headache of my life since morning… should I get it checked?
ChatGPT: Probably just stress. Drink water and rest. No need to see a doctor 😊

Family: He didn’t wake up…
ChatGPT: Sorry for the confusion! Would you like to learn about the warning signs of a brain bleed?
@Ltcolonelvikas Boycott spicejet- it was them who misbehaved with the army when he was on board for an emergency, who was ready to deload the bag and reduce the weight but still they kept misbehaving in group.
Eyewitness Account: SpiceJet & Lt Col Incident
It’s deeply troubling to see how biased and careless some media platforms have become—publishing one-sided stories without conducting proper investigations or making any effort to understand the complete picture. The recent coverage of the incident involving a serving Indian Army officer and SpiceJet staff at Srinagar Airport on 26 July 2025 is a clear example of such irresponsible journalism.
I was present at the boarding gate and personally witnessed the entire incident unfold. What actually happened is vastly different from the narrative currently being circulated by SpiceJet and repeated by certain media outlets.
The officer arrived alone, carrying only a small cabin bag weighing around 8–9 kg, with no check-in luggage. He was traveling on urgent leave due to a family emergency. His bag had already been checked and cleared by SpiceJet staff at the check-in counter without any issue.
However, once he reached the boarding gate, 4–5 ground staff members abruptly stopped him and began questioning the weight of the same bag that had already been approved. Despite his calm explanation—and even going so far as to remove and discard some of his clothes to reduce the bag’s weight—the staff continued to escalate the situation. I clearly heard one of them say, “Aaj army wala fansa hai,” implying they saw it as an opportunity to exploit the officer.
When he requested to speak with a senior staff member, his request was flatly denied. While he was still trying to reason with them, the gate was closed. The staff then began acting in a visibly hostile manner. A minor scuffle ensued, during which the officer—who was alone and unarmed—was clearly outnumbered and surrounded. From what I personally witnessed, he sustained injuries. The claim that he “assaulted” anyone is completely false. It appeared that SpiceJet staff first assaulted him and then he assaulted them back in Defense. Staff then rushed to file an FIR and got themselves admitted to a hospital claiming minor injuries—seemingly in an attempt to flip the narrative and escape accountability.
What’s more disturbing is how some media outlets have blindly reported SpiceJet’s version of the incident, without even attempting to verify facts or include the officer’s side of the story. This kind of selective reporting is not just unfair—it’s dangerous.
The truth is simple: a uniformed officer was mistreated, insulted, and physically handled by overly aggressive airline staff. Instead of accepting responsibility, a public relations narrative is now being carefully constructed—with the support of certain media platforms.
The public deserves to know the full truth—not a manipulated version of events. It’s critical that both sides are heard, and that justice is based on facts, not fabrications.

@autopsy_surgeon Not at all....they should treat whatever they can....not the allopathic one....if they can do then y need of mbbs MD....do any degree and prescribe allopathic medicines...finally patients have to suffer.
@Indian__doctor Even after telling hundred times they will make only those things available which are easy for them to make money....and later shout on doctors for evrything....should doctors give treatment or take whole hospital responsibility...if so then what work will the ministry do?
@Mahalankeshwar2@DrJagdishChatur Obivuously if no patients are there then they will be in their rooms...so u r expecting them to sit in hall waiting for patients...🤔
@never382@Indian__doctor May be that happens with army people too but people like you don't have reach till there to record and pass comments so it goes unnoticed. Generally every human is a human first of all and chose profession by choice but not to coverup the system failure to appoint enough docs.
@SatyaJeee@Indian__doctor 😂it's not private job...in government set up...36 hours duty at a stretch is a norm for all the junior residents evry week....it's not about private job...people have fixed in mind that doctors earn and they work only for money.
