A huge leap of faith from Allopathy to Ayurveda, and I am glad I made it.
Diagnosed with pulmonary sarcoidosis, each time I had an infection, I was treated with steroids, anti-inflammatories and antibiotics. Then came covid. Post covid I was diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of both hips and an insufficiency fracture. For the painful restricted movement, I was advised rest and anti-inflammatories and pain killers and told that I may need hip replacement in due course of time, depending on severity of the pain. This was not acceptable to me and so I started looking for alternative treatment. A google review by a close friend, of Charaka Speciality Ayurveda and Dr. M. Chandra Shekhar, set the ball rolling for an online consult with Dr. Chandra Shekhar, followed by the medicines (couriered to me), and finally dashed off to Hyderabad for a 45 days treatment involving Panchkarma. I am thankful to my friend for recommending Charaka and my family for encouraging me with the treatment which today (5 months down the line) allows me to live a normal life. I have resumed my brisk walks and permitted exercises, am able to squat and sit on the floor, and have not had any infection since I started my treatment under Dr. Chandra Shekhar. The staff at Charaka is very professional and hygienic standards are well maintained. My leap of faith has paid off very well and hope that the benefits of this treatment (with advised precautions) helps me in the long run too.
