Hi, I am 62 years old, with Coronart Arterieal disease, having undergone Angioplasty 17 years back. My weight was consitent at 74-76 Kgs ans waist 36" for last 20 years, but in last 3-4 years, it has suddenly shot up to now 84 kgs now since last 3-4 years. My height is 5'4". I also have developed high BP since pandemic time, and now taking Telma 40 twice a day, as advised by my cardio. This besides other medicines. I do brisk walk 30-40 mins, for 3-4 days in a week. This gets stopped during winter time, due sever pollution prevailing in Noida. Now, the query is how do I reduce my weight to 75 and redice waist size to 35-36" - over next 4-6 months? My diet is neither too light and neither too rich. I don't smoke but take moderate (60-90 ml) alcohol 2-3 times in a week. Please advise

Ans: Hello Sudipto,
Have you consulted a good nutrionist? A correct nutrition guideline can make a big difference in weight and to become overall fitter.
Also yoga is an excellent form of exercise so even on days you can't walk you can still do yoga indoors. Yoga can help to reduce waist size too.
All the best!

I am MSC microbiologist. I have applying many companies but no response from anywhere I am desperately searching but not found my wishes job opportunity from Maharashtra but not responding any consultant and companies
Ans: I'm sorry to hear about your challenges in finding job opportunities in Maharashtra. Consider searching for positions in neighboring cities or regions where there may be more demand for microbiologists. Make use of online job portals and professional networking platforms to search for job openings in your field. Tailor your resume to highlight your relevant skills and experiences, and actively apply to positions that match your qualifications. Attend industry-specific events, seminars, and conferences where you can network with professionals in your field and learn about job opportunities. Join relevant industry associations or online forums to stay updated on industry trends and job openings. Identify companies in Maharashtra that may require microbiologists for research, testing, or product development purposes. Visit their websites, review their career pages, and reach out directly to inquire about job opportunities or submit your resume. Job searching can be a challenging and time-consuming process, but it's important to stay persistent and maintain a positive attitude. Celebrate small victories, stay proactive in your job search efforts, and remain confident in your abilities and qualifications. Keep refining your job search strategies, and don't hesitate to seek support from former colleagues, classmates, professors, and industry contacts who may be aware of job openings or able to provide insights into the job market.

My grandmother has Parkinson's and got a tube in her nose that extends to her stomach that so we can inject liquids easily as she completely avoids eating food and doesn't even swallow a sip of water. She snatched the tube out of her nose completely and now it cannot be used again. We cannot keep a check on her for full 24 hours but we try our best. Please suggest anything to avoid the snatching as once a tube has been taken out it cannot be re-inserted. And please one more thing that she keeps wetting the bed despite of using diapers. The diaper always leaks out and then my mom has to clean grandmother, her clothes, the bed sheets etc. She gets tired by doing this twice a day as it is a lot of work. Pls suggest something about the bed wetting to how to minimise it. She is around 70 kgs and cannot even get up herself so my mom has to pull her out of the bed which requires a lot of strength. My mom feels pain in her back and shoulder a lot. All of this happening around the house is too much. I will be grateful if you reply.
Ans: To avoid bed wetting you need to make her wear the correct size diaper. Undersheets can be used as an added protection.
Normally soaking happens if we do not change the diaper adequately.
Please ask your Mom to do some upper body work outs through a physios, help.
With respect to the Ryle's tube, it is an irritant that one gets used to. If your Grandmom does not like it and non cooperative not much can be done. But you could check up with her Physician if now and then Parenteral nutrition can be given by hospitalising her
