Chamber updates
On the 12th of September, I consulted 24 patients in my chamber. It was an average busy day. In the visa medical section, 40 people came for check-ups. Alhamdulillah, there was no emergency case.
Physical activity
Again, there was no "workout" walking on Monday. However, after 9 pm, we went out to a park for around one hour. Alhamdulillah, I was able to make 10k plus steps!
A story of a patient with a suspected nicotine withdrawal syndrome
A few days ago one Pakistani patient visited me twice in one week. He was having left-sided chest pain and pain in the left upper back area also. Occasionally the pain was radiating to his left upper limb also. On the first visit, I did one ECG. The report was normal. I prescribed some medications. 2-3 days later he visited me again. The same issue. With the given medicine, he wasn't okay 100%. On the second visit, I did on chest X-ray too. Again, it was normal.
On the first visit, he gave a notable history. He was a heavy smoker. Around one week before starting his symptoms, he stopped smoking suddenly and completely! As ECG and X-ray chest were within normal limits and the medicines were not working, my suspicion grew towards "nicotine withdrawal syndrome". I asked a few more questions to assess his overall well-being. He was having trouble sleeping as well. His appetite was poor.
He and the attending person also had the same suspicion. So, we talked about its possibility. I gave him a few other medicines to help him in this regard.

Islamic reminder
Hypocrisy: Major and minor
Hypocrisy is a disease of our hearts. In Islam, hypocrisy is a major sin which may cast a person to the bottom of hell! It is of two varieties; major and minor. Imam Nadim Bashir talked about this in the following YouTube video.
Okay. It is all for now. I am alive, healthy and thriving, Alhamdulillah. How about you?
