Case Study No: 145 | Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) – Shailendra Shahi

Shailendra Shahi suffered from low Platelet Count

Shailendra Shahi hails from Dehradun and he suffered from low platelets. Actually the whole problem began in 2007 when his gums started bleeding. He didn’t know why, what went wrong with his gums. He visited a local doctor who referred him to get some tests done. He went to a renowned lab and got tested and his platelet count was too low, mere 5000. In a normal person the count should be between 1, 50,000 to 4, 50,000. What to do now? Even he was puzzled. The doctor advised him to remove his spleen. But he fore warned him that he might face further complications by doing that. But Shailendra Shahi thought to change his doctor. The next time he visited another doctor who also insisted on spleen removal. But Shailendra Shahi was not going to take any chances and visited the most prestigious hospital in New Delhi and the doctors over there said that they had no cure for his disease.

“What?” he was shocked to hear the negative reply. He didn’t know where to go from there. But his brother did one thing fine. He searched on the internet to find a cure in some other medical fields like Homeopathy, Ayurveda or Unani. In fact he watched a YouTube video of a person who got the cure from Planet Ayurveda. But all YouTube videos are posted to gain publicity and something like that and he watched many more videos. All of them had different diseases and all got the cure from Planet Ayurveda and everybody was praising an Ayurvedic doctor, Dr. Vikram Chauhan. Now all will not be telling lies. So he brought his mobile to his brother Shailendra Shahi and showed him some videos and asked him to contact Planet Ayurveda.

He found their number from the website and he dialed their land line number and a very sweet voice of a lady picked the phone and asked him that how Planet Ayurveda can help him. He narrated his own story and asked that if they had a remedy that can treat him and he wished to meet Dr. Vikram Chauhan personally. She did fix his date of arrival and asked him to bring along all the papers related to his disease, all the lab reports and clinic slips the different doctors have given him and also asked him to reach the clinic at 9:30 am, that’s the time this clinic opens and the doctors examine on first come first serve basis.

It is a well known fact by now that Planet Ayurveda which is very well managed by a highly qualified association of Ayurvedic doctors, Dr. Vikram Chauhan and his wife Dr. Meenakshi Chauhan, she is a gold medal winner while getting her degree.

He arrived in Chandigarh a day earlier and spent the night with their relative who resides there. The next day, he got up early and reached Planet Ayurveda. He got duly impressed with the number of people present on their threshold. He entered its premises and was more surprised to see its lobby brimming with so many people. He went straight to the receptionist. After introducing himself, the receptionist wrote down the name of the patient on a slip that had Planet Ayurveda printed on it and guided him to an assistant of the doctors in another room. The assistant kept asking about the symptoms that he was feeling and kept writing on that sheet.

After finishing she asked him to wait for his turn in the AC lounge. He sat down and waited for his turn that came about 1:30pm and he went to the room of the doctor, who was sitting behind a huge table. After the initial greetings the doctor asked him to hand over his disease related papers and he did that in a humble way. The doctor saw his reports and observed that Platelet count was too low. The doctor scrutinized them carefully and after finishing asked him to tell him the history and he did do that with full honesty. While he was speaking the doctor kept writing the names of medicines that were required. After he had finished the doctor said, “Look Mr. Shailendra Shahi, you need to take our ITP Care Pack and some dietary tips that you have to follow precisely and these medicines will certainly restore your platelet count.” “Doctor if you do that it will give me a second life as the other doctors have said that they don’t have the treatment for ITP. It will really be grateful for me,” he said. The doctor asked him to keep reporting every month about his improvement. The doctor bid him goodbye and he headed towards the pharmacy that was located right in the front of the doctor’s room.

He came to the pharmacy and bought the medicines and left for his home in Dehradun in Uttarakhand. His platelet count kept rising since then. After 3 months of treatment, he got his count checked in a lab and his platelet count has reached 2, 22,000 and he is feeling cheerful about it. Last week he again got it checked and this time it was showing to be 3, 15,000 and he felt absolutely proud to have come to Planet Ayurveda.
