And Dear MD's! Here are some tips!

Don't allow the feeling of helplessness and despondency enter your life. Fight it out as a soldier, to the last drop of blood.

1. Take one multi vitamin tablet a day. Take the herbal medicine Chyavana Prasa and Aswagandharishta and one 'E' Capsule.
   
   
2. Your lungs require some exercises as you can not run or walk. So make it a fun to play mouth organ, flute, blow soap bubbles, blow balloons. The caution is don not over do it. Be moderate.
   
   
3. Employ your time in some useful and entertaining purpose. You can help kids in their lessons, you can watch good TV shows, cricket, music shows etc.
   
   
4. Expand your connections. Write letters to friends, relatives, just for fun. Be communicative, talk t friends and relatives on phone.
   
5. Ask parents, friends to talked you outside now and then, in a wheel chair, or a rickshaw or car etc.
   
   
6. Participate in festivals, like Dasara, Deepavali of Pooja functions taking others help, though for a short time. You'll have the satisfaction of participation.
   
   
7. Don't take to heart the words of some people who speak badly about disease, or ask you too many questions or stare at you in public. Take it easy. Understand that they are just sympathetic towards you, though in their own way.
   
   
8. Develop a positive attitude to life, consider yourself as a soldier fighting the disease in your own way. Disease brings down your spirits naturally. But don't give in. Don't surrender. Enjoy fun. Speak fun. Read cartoons. Collect fun talk serials

9. Take care of your food. It should be easily digestable, consisting greens, milk, bananas and other fruits. Pure honey in milk or in water is a good supplier of glucose to your muscle tissues. Avoid highly spiced foodstuffs.
   
   
10. Take care of your bowel movement. You should go to the toilet every day. If you have constipation, take more milk every night.
    Also take Triphala (Zandu) tablets, 2 or 3 every night. Also take Aswagandharista two spoons with water after food twice a day and Alfalfa with Ginseng (Homeo) before food twice a day.
