Are you a White Zebra with Black Stripes or a Black Zebrawith White Stripes?” The Zebra answered, “I have no idea. All God said was, ‘You are what you are.’” St. Peter said, “Okay, got it. You’re a White Zebrawith Black Stripes.” Surprised, the Zebra asked, “How could you possiblyknow that?” St. Peter said, “Because if you were a Black Zebrawith White Stripes, God would have said, ‘You is what you is.’” Q5 What doyou know that most people don’t? A5 TinyNair, Cardiologist at PRS Hospital, Trivandrum5y Everyone knows these facts. Hypertension (high blood pressure) commonly causeheadache. Diabetes (high sugar) can be countered by takingbitter gourd. Avoiding fatty food can surely reduce cholesterol. Heart attack always cause left sided chest pain. Pricking type of chest pain located at one point in theleft chest may be heart attack. An Echo test(heart scanning) can identify blocks in the heart. Fruits are no no for a diabetic Smoking just one cigarette is not very dangerous. It is very rarefor women to die of heart attack. Unfortunately; all of the above are wrong. It is very rare for people to get headache because ofhypertension unless the BP is very severe (accelerated hypertension,hypertensive encephalopathy or a hypertensive stroke). Diabetes results from low levels or ineffectiveInsulin in the body. Taking bitter gourd actually worsensblood sugar (it is complex carbohydrate). 60 % of serum cholesterol is synthesized in theLiver. So despite strict dieting people can still have very high cholesterol. Heart attack pain can be anywhere from above thenavel to below the jaw, it can radiate to shoulders or back or feel like‘indigestion’. Despite the classic left chest, left arm pain, manyoften cardiac pain is atypical. Pricking chest pain, localized to a point is almostalways non-cardiac An Echo test shows heart valves and heart muscles andcardiac contractility, it cannot identify a coronary block. Indirect evidence of blockby way of heart muscle abnormality may be shown in echo. Citrus fruits and bananas have low glycemic index andare recommended in diabetic diet Even one cigarette smoking can cause transientnarrowing of coronary artery and precipitate a block in a susceptible person(coronary spasm). Chance of a women dying of an heart attack is more thanbreast and uterine cancer added together. It is of course less common than in men inmenstrual age group. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
