Hai friend, I am residing near the Sreedhariyam hospital. I am a victim of RP. For the last 9 years, I am away from print medium. I had undergone a treatment for 6 months under the chief doctor of the above said hospital Dr.NPP Namboothiri. Before that from 92 to 96 I was taking homeo medicine and my vision was stable thereafter. The main problem i faced at that time was my night blindness. In 98 I was taken to Dr. Namboothiri by one of my distant relative. After the six month treatment my vision during the day time started decreasing and I was asked to take a course of treatment as an inpatient of the hospital. Mean while I met a person Sunny George from panakkapalam near Pala in Kottayam district of Kerala. When he started treatment he had only one problem and it was the difficulty he felt when light from an approaching vehicle fall in to his eyes. He was a driver in KSRTC. After the treatment doctor assured him that his vision will not deteriorate and that he can undertake any job which he could do in good light condition. He joined in Maruthi service center in Delhi and was dispelled from the center after one and a half year as he was not able to see nut and bolt! Hearing this experience I decided to stop the treatment. Later in 2001 I underwent a treatment in another hospital near Thodupuzha in Kerala and I gained verymuch in my vision. But after completing the first course of treatment late in the year a lost my ability to read text. Then I again turned to Homeopathic treatment and vision is not deteriorating thereafter. For the last 9 years my vision is 2/60. I know about 10 persons who underwent treatment in Sreedhariyam and about 20 persons who underwent treatment in the hospital near Thodupuzha. None of them has gained distinguishable visual acuity and had some improvement only in associated problems like head ache and so on. I haven’t met a single person who have considerable vision improvement. Some experiences were given by the hospital through print media. I don’t find it reliable. This sharing is not to hurt any one but to show my anger against the exploitation of hospitals under the name “Ayurveda”. I don’t like to say about the cost of treatment in these hospitals. Sorry for this long mail. I just wanted to give a clear picture of the situation as I experienced and knew. Now it is up to you to decide. My comment is only about treatment of cronic situations RP and the diseases associated with nervous disorders. Even in the treatmet of congenital cateract, I have found this hospital, a failure. With regards Jaison Bellarmine.
