DIABETES NEVER SEEM TO GO IT ALONE, ALWAYS TAKES ONE OR MORE PIGGY BACKS :
Now our country faces a Double Trouble foreseen by the T.B. Research Institute Confronting the T.B. Patients with Diabetes. That will really throw a challenge on the Conventional treatment Schedule .
The Major challenges to be faced in this Double Trouble :
* Diabetics have lower immunity and the risk of contacting T.B.
*The diagnosis becomes difficult as the disease is presented differently in Diabetics.
* Response for treatment may not be to the full expectation as books claim.
The 2 pronged offensive from the Double Trouble .
# Diabetic Patients suffering from T.B. There will be impaired glucose tolerance due to stress response .
# The anti T.B. Drugs particularly , Rifampicin makes it difficult to maintain glucose control .
So it is a challenge for the Specialists from Diabetic as well as that of Chest Diseases Field.
THE CHALLENGE IS NOT ONLY FOR THE SPECIALISTS FROM THE ALLOPATHIC STREAM ,BUT ALSO TO THE ONES IN AYUSH STREAM ALSO . AS OUR LAND OPENED THE PORTALS TO THE WORLD ON SURGERY AND MEDICINE THROUGH THE GREAT SURGEON SUSHRUTA AND PHYSICIAN CHARAKA . THAT IS WHY I AM POSTING THIS HERE IN AYUSH CIRCLE. more
