Gujarati pearls of wisdom
મને એવી કયાં ખબર હતી કે :
"સુખ અને ઉંમરને" બનતું નથી ,
...પ્રયત્ન કરીને સુખને તો લાવ્યો,
પણ ..
ઉંમર રીસાઇને ચાલી ગઇ ...!!!
~_________________________________~
"નાનું પણ ભયંકર વાક્ય"
આશ્ચર્ય છે ને કે રાવણને સળગાવતા પહેલાં આપણે જ એને બનાવીએ છીએ.
~_________________________________~
દોસ્ત......
કેટલો ચાલાક હતો તું !!!
ગીફ્ટ માં "ઘડિયાળ" તો આપી ગયો....
પણ ત્યાર પછી!!!
"સમય"આપવા નું ભુલી ગયો!!!....
~_________________________________~
માણસ પાસે બહુ રૂપિયો
થઇ જાય ત્યારે..
માણસ ''બહુરૂપિયો''
થઇ જાય છે.....
~_________________________________~
"જીંદગી શીખવે તે શીખી લેવાય,
કયો પાઠ કયારે કામ લાગી જાય કોને ખબર ! "
~_________________________________~
❛ દુઃખ આવ્યું છે
અને આવતું રહેશે, સાહેબ
છતાં સવારે સુખ શોધવા નીકળી જવું
એનું નામ 'જિંદગી'
~_________________________________~
સાવ ડફોળ ના દાખલા સાચા પડે
અને ભલભલા બુધ્ધિશાળી ના ગણિત ખોટા પડે...
એનું નામ "જીંદગી"
~_________________________________~
સામેની વ્યક્તિ જરા વધું પડતી ભોળી હતી
એથીજ તમે ચતુર કહેવાયા .......
એ વાત ભુલશો નહી!!!
~_________________________________~
સંપ
માટી એ કર્યૉ,
ને ઈંટ બની..
ઈંટો નુ
ટોળુ થયુ,
ને ભીંત બની…
ભીંતો
એક બીજાને મળી,
ને ” ઘર ” બન્યું….
જો નિર્જીવ વસ્તુઓ પ્રેમ અને લાગણી સમજતી હોય,
તો આપણે તો માનવી છીએ
સહુ ને ભેગા કરવાની તાકાત પ્રેમમાં છે,
અને સહુને નોખા કરવાની તાકાત વહેમમાં છે
~_________________________________~
જોઈતું મળી જાય એ "સમૃદ્ધિ" છે,
પણ
એના વિના ચલાવી શકીએ એ તો "સામર્થ્ય" છે......
~_________________________________~
ઉંમર તમને દોસ્તી કરતા રોકતી નથી.....
પણ
દોસ્તી તમને ઉમરલાયક થતા જરૂર રોકે છે.
~_________________________________~
અનુકૂળ સંજોગોમાં જીવતો માણસ સુખી છે..
પણ
સંજોગોને અનુકૂળ બનાવીને જીવતો માણસ પરમ સુખી છે..!
~_________________________________~
અજબ નળીઓ ગોઠવી છે પ્રભુએ દેહમાં,
ભરાય છે દિલમાં
અને
છલકાય છે આંખમાં...
~_________________________________~
એ નદી હતી....
પાછળ કોઈ દિવસ વળી નહી,
હું સમુદ્ર હતો ....
આગળ કોઈ દિવસ વધ્યો નહી.
~_________________________________~
લાગણીઅોની હત્યાનો આક્ષેપ કોના કોના પર લગાવું..
મને જ શોખ હતો સમજદાર બનવાનો...
~_________________________________~
હળવાશથી કહેશો
તો કોઈની જોડે
કડવાશ નહિ થાય.
~_________________________________~
ધીરજ એટલે,
રાહ જોવાની ક્ષમતા નહિ...
પણ,
રાહ જોતી વખતે સ્વભાવને
કાબુમાં રાખવાની ક્ષમતા..

Pediatric Neurology Conference
Salient points from Pediatric Neuro Conference today at Chennai Rain tree hotel
Epilepsy diagnosis is purely clinical and doesn't need a EEG.. As a normal eeg doesn't rule out epilepsy and an abnormal eeg doesn't conclude epilepsy..
If you are in doubt if it is epilepsy or syncope ask the history properly and EEG is not needed here to rule out epilepsy as we usually think
MRI is the investigation of choice and never a CT as radiation is soon high to cause leukemia s..
Treating epilepsy is not an emergency.. Only if you are sure about the diagnosis start AED s.. If u r in doubt wait for another episode to occur and then start .. If possible ask them to video record the event.. Though its practically tough insist the patient to do so as it is the best way to conclude seizure event.
Pseudo refractory seizures means trying 2 inappropriate combination of AED s and concluding that its a case of refractory seizures.. Always use the appropriate combinations..
Don't do MRI for Autism ADHD cases.. No need if MRI for absence seizures..
No role of Neuroimaging and EEG even in atypical febrile seizures.. No need of AED prophylaxis in any febrile seizure typical or atypical as it doesn't alter long term seizure occurrence.. Teaching parents to use midazolam nasal spray is all that is needed in most cases..
Don't increase AED s dose with increasing weight of child as we usually think .. If child is seizure free with that particular dose that's enough and continue with that alone..and don't increase dose for decreased serum drug levels of the drug.. Mostly serum drug levels don't have a role
No role of cannabinoid oil or L carnitine.. No use..in seizures
For Infantile spasms oral prednisone (40 mg per day for all ) is as good as ACTH .. ACTH has more complications..Prednisone can be combined with vigabatrin too..
Valproate causes asymptomatic increase in transaminase levels.. Not to be taken seriously until the AST ALT levels are increased more than 5 times the normal..
Epileptic surgery is not a last option as we think some epilepsy disorders improve well with surgery.. They are decided based on MRI.. Lesions which are predominantly on one side like mesial temporal sclerosis, heterotopia hemi megalencephaly, tuberous sclerosis sturge weber syndrome improve well with surgery..like lesionectomy lobectomy,hemispherectomy.
In certain rare MRI negative epilepsy usually cortical dysplasia s stereo EEG explorations could be done.. And the lesion causing seizure could be removed..
EEG machines made in India are of poor calibration and quality which gives you wrong diagnosis.. A EEG report should have the diagnosis and not merely cortical seizure activity or subcortical seizure activity ..
In all cases of acute transverse myelitis,, mri brain is a must along with spine so as not to miss a demyelination
Headaches in children.. First line of treatment is paracetamol and Ibubrufen( better option) .. Second line is triptans ( sumatriptan nasal spray) For a severe headache iv anti emetics are very useful.. Prophylaxis is for those with more than 3 attack s per month for past 3 months.. Propanolol is very good.. Flunarizine and Amitriptyline are good too but more side effects..Sodium valproate can also be used..good results.. Cyproheptadine is good for less than 6 years old children..
NCC and Tuberculoma.. How to differentiate❓..
NCC rule of 6 S.. Supratentorial, single,some edema, scolex, seizure only presentation, stage of lesion variable..
Tuberculoma can have features other than seizures like prolonged fever cough TB contact positive mantoux positivity.. Focal neurological deficit s, midline shift in MRI.. Multiple lesions..
Rarely both NCC and tuberculoma can coexist in the same patient..
Rarely multiple neurocysticercosis cysts can be seen in MRI disseminated ones... Called as starry sky appearance...can present with fever vomiting headache etc..
No role of MRI spectroscopy with lipid peak and lactate peaks in differentiating both..
Duchene muscular dystrophy.. Treatment is Prednisone 0.75 mg per kg per day...or Deflazocort 0.9 mg per kg per day.. Prednisone has high risk of obesity.. Deflazocort has high risk of cataract..
Two drugs with same mechanism of action is an inappropriate combination egs. Phenytoin and Carbamazepine , Phenytoin and valproate...
Those with different mechanism of action is a good combination.. E.g.Valproate and Lamotrigine, Valproate and leviteracetam, Leviteracetam and clobazam, Valproate and clobazam, ..
Nowadays neurologists prescriptions have Valproate+ clobazam or Leviteracetam+ clobazam.. This combination works well I guess😊
Few points to add to pearls:
Levitiractetam - not much effective in continuous , daily, multiple seizures. Lamotrigine, topiramate are better options.
2. Clobazam - best first add on drug in seizures not controlled with a single drug.
3.valproate not effective in focal seizures.
4.clobazam and PBT need a slow tapering

A to Z of life
The Alphabet of Happiness
A – ACCEPT: Accept others for who they are and for the choices they’ve made even if you have difficulty understanding their beliefs, motives, or actions.
B – BREAK AWAY: Break away from everything that stands in the way of what you hope to accomplish with your life.
C – CREATE: Create a family of friends whom you can share your hopes, dreams, sorrows, and happiness with.
D – DECIDE: Decide that you’ll be successful and happy come what may and good things will find you. The roadblocks are only minor obstacles along the way.
E – EXPLORE: Explore and experiment. The world has much to offer, and you have much to give. And every time you try something new, you’ll learn more about yourself.
F – FORGIVE: Forgive and forget. Grudges only weigh you down and inspire unhappiness and grief. Soar above it, and remember that everyone makes mistakes.
G – GROW: Leave the childhood monsters behind. They can no longer hurt you or stand in your way.
H – HOPE: Hope for the best and never forget that anything is possible as long as you remain dedicated to the task.
I – IGNORE: Ignore the negative voice inside your head. Focus instead on your goals and remember your accomplishments. Your past success is only a small inkling of what the future holds.
J – JOURNEY: Journey to new worlds, new possibilities, by remaining open-minded. Try to learn something new every day, and you’ll grow.
K – KNOW: Know that no matter how bad things seem, they’ll always get better. The warmth of spring always follows the harshest winter.
L – LOVE: Let love fill your heart instead of hate. When hate is in your heart, there’s room for nothing else, but when love is in your heart, there’s room for endless happiness.
M – MANAGE: Manage your time and your expenses wisely, and you’ll suffer less stress and worry. Then you’ll be able to focus on the important things in life.
N – NOTICE: Never ignore the poor, infirm, helpless, weak, or suffering. Offer your assistance when possible, and always your kindness and understanding.
O – OPEN: Open your eyes and take in all the beauty around you. Even during the worst of times, there’s still much to be thankful for.
P – PLAY: Never forget to have fun along the way. Success means nothing without happiness.
Q – QUESTION: Ask many questions, because you’re here to learn.
R – RELAX: Refuse to let worry and stress rule your life, and remember that things always have a way of working out in the end.
S – SHARE: Share your talent, skills, knowledge, and time with others. Everything that you invest in others will return to you many times over.
T – TRY: Even when your dreams seem impossible to reach, try anyway. You’ll be amazed by what you can accomplish.
U – USE: Use your gifts to your best ability. Talent that’s wasted has no value. Talent that’s used will bring unexpected rewards.
V – VALUE: Value the friends and family members who’ve supported and encouraged you, and be there for them as well.
W – WORK: Work hard every day to be the best person you can be, but never feel guilty if you fall short of your goals. Every sunrise offers a second chance.
X – X-RAY: Look deep inside the hearts of those around you and you’ll see the goodness and beauty within.
Y – YIELD: Yield to commitment. If you stay on track and remain dedicated, you’ll find success at the end of the road.
Z – ZOOM: Zoom to a happy place when bad memories or sorrow rears its ugly head. Let nothing interfere with your goals. Instead, focus on your abilities, your dreams, and a brighter tomorrow
