What he/she says
My self M. D Nabi from UP (Bareli).My father Buddha khan 57yrs old, affected by significant fall in two out of three blood cells(Hemoglobin and Platelets) requiring blood transfusion. First in September 2016 my father problem is started with Typhoid fever, jaundice, for which we admitted in Majidia hospital in Delhi for 4-5 days .They did blood test ,all blood parameters are low so, they advised to do bone marrow test so, we went to AIIMS Hospital in Delhi. Again my father is feeling not good,next day we went and admit in (Apollo hospital) Delhi. They transfuse blood and platelet and second day 1unit of blood transfusion, and on fourth day they did bone marrow test and Endoscopy ,after some days report has come ,doctor told in endoscopy report there is a liver damage ,but bone marrow test is normal ,there is a chance of cancer ,and he advised to do bone marrow test after 2 months ,totally we are confused then we discharged . After 1 week my father started to feel week ,and we did CBC test near one lab ,all blood parameters are low (HB, Platelets) for this reason we admitted in Ramamurthy hospital in Bareli (UP),Again same thing blood transfusion ,they prescribed to do some investigation i.e Hep B virus DNA Quantitative ,according to this report ,doctor said this report is positive so,90% have chance to get cancer ,but proper treatment also not given ,after that we discharged . After some days again we tested CBC ,same thing all blood parameters are low ,and this time we went to Aligarh hospital in UP, there doctor told this is 100% bone cancer so, they referred to AIIMS hospital . Totally in these 2 months we consulted plenty of doctors and hospital but there is no proper answer .,Actually I am working in Bangalore so, I told my parents to come here, then we started to search oncology specialized hospital as outside doctor told us that your father is suffering from cancer and finally we went to HCG at Bangalore in First week of Feb 2017. We took appointment for Dr Sekhar Patil (medical oncologist) then he saw all reports and referred to Dr SK Gupta (Hematologist) for expert opinion and treatment. This was the time when I got proper answer of my father condition which is not a cancer and not life threating which gave almost relief to me and my family who is going with sleepless night from past few months. He advised some blood tests and meanwhile started on Tab Revolade & Inj EPO weekly. After continuing this treatment my father is recovering – no more red blood and platelets transfusion. Today (20-05-2017) we came to Hyderabad to show Dr S K Gupta and his platelet more than 1lac, Hb more than 13.0gm%. What I have understood in last 6-7month is that its long term disease and there may be recurrence of this disease (nothing 100% in life before starting any work) but proper detection of the underlying problem, guiding the patient and family members is crucial. I know this treatment may not be new in the world but using it at time is at most important. Before coming to hospital I don’t know Dr Gupta but by looking his way of taking care of patient and family, I would like to recommend Dr Gupta for any hematological disorders (cancerous or Non-cancerous) consultation and/or treatment if logistic can afford it .
