NO WOMAN SHOULD SUFFER FROM THIS DISEASE

NO WOMAN SHOULD SUFFER FROM THIS DISEASE
I was watching news last week in my one of the popular station. Then a story which made me shed a tear was aired. It was about a woman who was suffering from obstetric fistula. She was 90 years old. Her story was really painful. She had suffered from the disease for the past 27 years and the sad part is that she is childless because of her condition and she had no one to comfort her. What really made me shed a tear was when she said that she wished she was death. She started wondering why God is keeping her alive; she was just tired of the pain, shame and suffering.

After watching the story I did a research of the disease she was suffering from. From Wikipedia obstetric fistula is a medical condition in which a fistula (hole) develops between both the rectum and vagina or between the bladder and vagina after severe or failed child birth.
It always occurs due to medical negligence. Most women affected are from poverty stricken areas which they lack adequate medical resources forcing women to run to midwives who sometimes are not full qualified.

The symptoms include foul smell, flatulence and vaginal infections. This condition always victimises women and most of them lose their self-esteem and end up shying away from social activities hence leading a lonely life .The good news to all women is that this condition is correctable. Go to your nearest health centre to learn more about the condition.

I was happy to learn that the 90 year old woman was now undergoing medical treatment and hopefully she will live a normal life just like everyone else very soon. Wish someone had told her that her condition was correctable 27 years ago. Will always remember her in my prayer

A year ago I was a regular smoker. I used to smoke at least 2 cigarrates every day. I had not graduated to  chain smoking. That was good for me because if I had been a chain smoker it would have been harder for me to quit.

This are the tips to help you quit;
SET A SPECIFIC DATE TO STOP SMOKING
If you were smoking one packet each day. Set a specific date and promise yourself to smoke less. Start by buying less thus you will be sure you won’t smoke a packet from that day. Do this every day and continue reducing the number of cigarettes you smoke gradually till you reach 2 or 3 smokes each day. Don’t attempt to quit smoking all together at once. The withdrawal symptoms are overwhelming and it’s always hard to deal with it.

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE HIV; EARLY SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE HIV; EARLY SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
HIV is human immunodeficiency virus which once exposed to the virus it causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome which in turn causes progressive failure in the immune system causing deadly diseases like cancer and infections to thrive.
Within 2-4 weeks after being exposed to the various most people experience flu-like symptoms which may last for weeks. This flu has been described by experts as “the worst flu ever” which is called the primary HIV infection and the flu like symptoms are the body natural immune system reaction to the HIV infection.

THE COMMON EARLY SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS ARE
FEVER
This is the most common symptom of primary HIV infection. Most patients experience mild fever of over 100 degrees F.
This fever is often accompanied by mild symptoms like sore throat, sore glands and sometimes fatigue
According to experts at this point the virus is moving to the blood stream and its being replicated at large numbers which leads to inflammatory reaction by the immune system

FATIGUE
Because of the inflammatory reaction by the immune system your now weak immune system tries to fight with the virus which leads to your body feeling derailed, tired and feeling lack of energy. Experts have always termed fatigue as both and early or late HIV symptom. Most victims at this stage don’t have energy and they run out of breath when doing simple tasks like walking on stairs.

PAIN ,ACHY MUSCLES ,SWOLLEN LYMPH AND NODES
These symptoms are often mistaken for flu that’s why primary HIV infection is often referred to as flu like symptoms. Lymph nodes are always located in the arms, groin and neck and are part of the immune system and get inflamed when there is an infection.
Surprisingly these symptoms are the same as those of syphilis and hepatitis so victims may sometimes mistake them for viral infection.

ACUTE HEADACHE AND SORE THROAT
You may start to have an acute headache or a sore throat few weeks after engaging in a risky behaviour. It does not necessarily mean you have been already infected but it’s good to go for a test once you start feeling these symptoms.

SKIN RASH
According to HIV experts skin rush can be both early and late symptom of HIV infection. If after a few weeks you start to see boil like rashes in your body I would advise you to go and see the doctor since you might be infected.

NAUSEA , DIARRHEA AND VOMITING
Research shows that about 60% of people have nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea which is always short term.

WEIGHT LOSS
This is common in late stages of the infection. Victims can lose up to 10% of their weight. It occurs because of depletion of the human immune system by the virus.
Victims lose weight even if they continue eating. HIV patients always experience weight lose if they stop eating ARVS
DRY COUGH
Most people dismiss this symptom as allergies but it’s often the earliest sign that you have been infected. If you start experiencing a dry cough few weeks after engaging in a risky behaviour then i recommend that you rush to the nearest health centre and get tested.

PNEUMONIA
This is one of the opportunistic infection which occurs due to weaken of the immune system.  Many other opportunistic infection might also occur but at different stages .
The other opportunistic infection includes toxoplasmosis and yeast infection such as thrush.

NIGHT SWEATS
Experts researched and found that half of the people infected experience night sweats during the early stages of infection.
The night sweats are not related to changes in the temperature of the room. They might come about because of the mild fever which is often leads to fluctuations in body temperature.

HOW TO KNOW THAT SHE IS NOT INTO YOU



HOW TO KNOW THAT SHE IS NOT INTO YOU
Women always don’t express themselves verbally. If they like or don’t like you they will use nonverbal signs to express their feelings for you.
Most guys don’t always get it when a woman is not into them and they end up wasting their time chasing them, thinking they will change their mind later.
It’s said that women will know if they will sleep with you or not, the first 30 seconds they see you.so if she doesn’t like you she will try her best to show you she is not interested in you.
Here are the top signs to look out for.

1.       She does not answer your calls or text
A woman likes you will be delighted and very happy when you call her and she will answer as soon as possible. So if after exchanging numbers she doesn’t pick your calls just know she is not into you and move on. Texts will go unanswered also and she might sometimes take time before she replies your texts.

2.       Avoids you
A woman who likes you will always find time for you because she enjoys your company. If you always plan for dates and she cancels at the last minute just know she is not into you.

3.       Calls you  bro or friend
If she starts introducing you to her friends as just a friend and starts telling you about other guys she is dating and all other stuff she can discuss with her friends, just know you have been friendsoned and nothing will happen between you and her.

4.       Avoids eye contact
A woman who likes you will try her best to maintain eye contact with you. This is the major signal if she likes you. She will try to look at you and see if you are noticing her.
But if she can’t look at you and treats you as if you don’t exist in her world just know she is not you.

5.       Can’t allow you to touch her
A woman who likes you will hug you in public and not feel ashamed about it. If she avoids your hug that’s a major signal she is not into you. If you touch her while talking to her and she feels uncomfortable or nervous that means you don’t stand a chance with her.

6.       Says she has a boyfriend
If a woman truly likes you she will avoid talking about her boyfriend if she is hooked up or if she is single she will let you know immediately that she is ready to mingle. But if she is not into you she will immediately tell you she is hooked up and if she is single she will tell you a thousand reasons why she is not ready to mingle.
