It would shrink the Appendix

Yes, I've been waiting to hear such terms as "shrink", "dissolve", "clear", from them so I could go ahead and faint.
I've already secured a plot of land where I can freely faint.

Such words are their marketing and duping terminologies.

This herbal might be the solution but scientist don't just want to admit it

You guys in Nigeria just believe once something is termed "herb" it'll automatically possess the power to solve all medical problems(you forgot many drugs also came from herb, but in a more refined way).

Yes, one can use antibiotics to control the infective stage of acute appendicitis and delay surgery for some time......but recurrence may still occur.

Now, tell us what's in your herb that would successfully take care of the appendicitis?

I hope you and your men won't be telling us your herbs "can dissolve" the appendix??
The appendix is part of the large intestine(the caecum specifically), and can't be dissolved.

So, tell us what the herbs will do to an inflamed appendix that would make scientists adopt it in lieu of surgery.
PS: I like sound, scientifically based argument that's premised on a clear understanding of the subject matter in question.
I engaged a man who was boasting of having the medication/herbs for covid19 in argument a few days ago, and I learnt he absolutely didn't know anything about the coronavirus. One cannot actually solve a problem one doesn't have any knowledge about.

wealth25:
please how did you treat your chest pain cause I am having a similar issue now.

What's the nature of your own pain(sharp, heaviness/crushing, tightness, burning), what side of your chest?
How long have you had it?
Does it come and go or always there?
How did it start? After a strenuous work? Lifting of heavy load? Fighting or beating house girl? On waking up? While at rest?
Does it move to any of your shoulders, arm or jaw?
Worsened by anything, especially exercise? Or by hunger, spicy food? Beans? Alcohol?
Do you sweat or feel dizzy or hear your heart beat/palpitations when having the pain?
Any other other problems like cough, fever, pain on deep breathing?
What's your age? Weight?
Are you diabetic? Hypertensive?
Any family history of heart diseases?

Generally, it's like Ischemic Heart Diseases are not as common in Nigeria as it is here in the Middle East. But supply answers to the above questions, let's hazard a possible diagnosis and advise you appropriately.
Have you done anything ECG?

Hello, you furnish me with the average prices of each of the following: X Ray machine, Ultrasound machine, Haematology and chem path analyzers?
Thanks
X Ray should include both digital and analogue

What's development fee again for a house that has already been built??
And I'll still pay you a legal fee, even after coming with my own lawyer?
This is outrageous.

Ajibade123:
I swear you did not have sense
Madagascar hasn't record a single death and you are still saying the drug is killing people

Hmmm, this blockhead has just made me laugh for the first time today.
You can neither read nor comprehend.
It's a waste of time discussing scientific things with village people, who are only good in producing both "jazz/juju" children.
Whether they've recorded any death or not(which you have no proof of), every drug MUST pass through the clinical trials before being approved.
Even God himself challenged Christians in the Bible "to put him to test..."
Bros, if science and it's ways are too difficult for you to understand, just go back to your rat hole in the village.

Eazie351:
how do you explain the recoveries please?

Most viruses do not have any cure yet, and covid 19 is just one of them.
The good news with this current one is that, unlike the HIV, it doesn't destroy the immune cells.
These cells are the guards and soldiers in the body.
So, in many healthy individuals, the immune cells are able to attack and successfully destroy them.
However, in some others with compromised immunity or where the immune response becomes exaggerated, complications may arise and the individual may succumb.

Think about when you had flu and recovered. It's your immune cells that did the job, and not the supportive treatment(paracetamol, vitamin c, cough syrups, ect) you received, as there's no specific cure for the virus causing the flu symptoms.
Those supportive treatments are to make you comfortable, while your immune cells do the actual fighting against the virus.

Eazie351:
ok, China would have gone public with it?

why didn't China disclose what meds they used for treating their patients with which they now have over 90% recovery rate?

isn't something missing?


artemisinin may have been in existence for a while but China is still hiding something about this. could they have fought through the pandemic because of 100% compliance to the lockdown rules? considering their population.



now, they've resumed academic activities.

You guys love propaganda and conspiracy theories a lot!
Which drug did China used and didn't disclose??
There was no such thing( if they had, they would be making billions from it).
No country in the world presently has any effective drug against covid 19.
The medical professionals are not like politicians and businessmen.
Information is shared freely in the medical community.
Even when China wanted to keep the outbreak secret, a Chinese doctor, who later died, still raised alarm about the new virus, at the detriment of his life.
Drugs are produced by medical professionals, and there's no where in the world today, a drug will be produced and the international medical community won't know about it.

China's success was mainly due to their aggressive prosecution of their lockdown, which no other country has been able to match so far.

You mustn't be on drugs to recover from covid 19. Only a few who develop complications die. Majority have mild to moderate symptoms and can recover with no treatment.

Eazie351:
they've recorded no death so far and people keep recovering.

WHO should be crawling to them.

look at them even divulging it's active ingredient...

The active ingredient is Artemisinin, which has been in use for malaria treatment in the form of ACT(Artemisinin combination therapy) for decades.
When you take Coartem, Lonart, etc, you're taking Artemisinin. I don't know what new thing Madagascar think they've brought to the table.
Artemisinin was discovered in China some years ago for the treatment of malaria, and the plant is still dominant there till date.
If the drug had any effectiveness against covid19, China would have been the first to go public with it.

Bros, those measurements are taken live on the screen during the scanning process, and not on the printed films.

Unfortunately, some very gullible people will believe her, just because they read she's living in the USA.

This is as stupid as a Nigerian living in Nigeria saying there's no coronavirus in Brazil.

Shelumiel:
[s][/s] Slavery mentality is still working in you. Get rid of it.

I'm not as crude, primitive, and ignorant as you are.
I'm very educated and enlightened, and know the standard every human should operate at.
High and correct standard and ways of doing things are not only meant for the Whites.
They're meant for the Blacks as well.
You can't be living the same way your forefathers live in the 15th century in this present 21st century.
The world is currently being driven by science and technology, and you and other Africans must key into that.
Life is precious and should be highly valued.
You can't bring untested rubbish and start forcing it down people's throat, just because you are capable of inpregnating your wives and giving births to new lives every minute in Africa. Learn to value the lives of those you've already given birth to.

I hope you propagandists know that the current DG of WHO is also an African from Ethiopia??
There's nothing wrong with the WHO asking for clinical trials to confirm the efficacy and safety of the product. That's what it should be.
If those who produced it were sensible enough, they should have done that without being asked, and before going public. The black man likes putting the cart before the horse, and st the end, he moves no where.
The problem with Africans is that they usually believe once they boil some leaves, it can heal everything, and requires no confirmation.
The main reason for that is because lives are not valued in Africa.
If they can't agree to subject it to scientific trials for safety and efficacy, then, let them throw it away.
After all, if they could 'cure' Covid-19, they could have 'cured' Ebola, Lassa fever, HIV, HBV, HCV, etc, that have been resident in African for decades.

Macro231101:
sure thin ...I was told to bring 10k

That's quite cheap nah, bros.
You're so lucky to get a hospital that will remove that at 10,000.
Surgeries don't come that cheap, no matter how minor.
Go remove it before they change their mind, if you're sure it's a hospital, and not a "chemist" shop.

shamsin6300:
Ask him to either call the number for you so that u will call the person and put it in loud speaker for the guy to talk using his native language if he wish to.

By so doing, she would make it clear to him she was avoiding contact with him.

With the usual Nigerian mentality, he would feel very bad, and unforgiving.

Macro231101:
they are useless....well sha ,there is no negative effect of this and its not painful..

Sure?? What of the psychological and stigmatizing effects, and longterm risk of malignant transformation?

You think if I were a woman, I would come near you??

Make arrangement for it to be removed surgically.

And don't give the little money you have to that ginger and garlic seller.

Let him sell to those who want to cook rice.

GingerGarlicTea:
Ginger Garlic Tea with Honey Kills infections and diseases in the body, also prevents the body from such.

Chat me up to get Ginger Garlic Tea in one pack and Honey deliveries.

Pay on home delivery....check my profile for my WhatsApp no

It's like Ginger, Garlic and STC30 have become the new avenue to steal money from ignorant, unsuspecting Nigerians.
These 3 stuffs now cure every disease(both infective and non-infective) in the world.

Before you start your "prescription", what's the name of the thing you're treating?

OdefaGirl:
Even those from Qatar should be quarantined....
They have started again....

FLYOVERS

Hope you read and understood the news??

PWGLTD:
Thank you!
First the word careful is a poor translation from Greek to English by king James, careful in the original Greek rendering is the word "merimnao" which is rendered in contemporary English language as "to be anxious" therefore it's a state and not an action about to be carried out. So that verse if you check the new king James version is rendered like this, Phil.4.6 - Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
So Paul was addressing the church concerning the cares an the needs of life, if you check vs 4 he said "rejoice always..." so this are believers who are already worn out and who are under pressure of different necessities of life and those were his admonition ...IN EVERYTHING BY PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION... " that's the way to go till you see your expected result.

Well done!

Vickym1:
Maybe the govt is working with them since the govt refused to show us pictures or videos of patients they're treating... Meaning all these coro thing is a scam

You're a lazy person if you sit there and expect the government to send you patients' pictures!
That should be the work of you and your fellow lazy journalists.
There's no country where the government snaps patients and send their pictures to you.
Documentaries are done by pressmen, with kind permission from the concerned government agencies and patients' consent.
Was it the government that snapped pictures during Abba Kyari's burial and sent to you??
People like you won't even volunteer to go close to the fence of the isolation centre, let alone go inside with a camera.

• WHAT IS PRAYER?

Mark 11: 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Prayer is making your desires known to the father. It also means to make a strong appeal or a fixed request of what you desire.

This implies that prayer cannot be by thinking, words have to be spoken. It is an activity carried out in reverence by man.

Philippians 4: 6 be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

By prayer and supplication, let your request, that is your desire be made known unto God.

The words prayer and supplication refer to the same thing, it is to make petitions or come before a higher authority with your request.

This was used earlier in chapter 1.

Philippians 1:4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

Prayer involves verbalizing our desires, to speak forth our request unto God.

Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

God expects that we make a request, He wants us to ask him.

PRAYER: Today pray for something specific, your desire. Make a request to God in Jesus name!

Kudos to you!
In Philipians 4:6, it was "Be careful for nothing,..." What does this really mean? Was God actually telling us to be careless, and then go ahead to pray about whatever the consequence of our actions be? I need your articulated response to the above queries.

Actuarydeji:
That is madness of the highest order. Why will you tell a professional carpenter to repair your hummel jeep engine? Lab scientist performing surgery! What a country! What a shame to the health sector! What a shame to our educational sector! What a shame to our government! I used to feel bad at times, that I am a Nigerian. Hypocrites, please don't quote me. I no that deep down inside you, you have the same thought. So don't try to quote me. What a barbaric nation! Lives means nothing to our leaders. I don't believe in this trash; "God will judge them". The youth need to start a positive revolutionary move.

Hmmm, you haven't seen anything yet! During my NYSC in Gombe state, I saw Nurses and Community Health Extension Workers confidently doing CS and Appendectomies. Even traditional birth attendants do Caesarean sections in the north.
And no one seemed to give a damn about it!

Partteen:
How is he doing currently? Get pawpaw and boil with 1 and half satchet water for 15 mins. Seive the water and ask him to drink it. Get the pawpaw asap.

Let me know the outcome

The one that died this morning was also "prescribed" pawpaw and other stupid things at home by stupid people like you.
Unfortunately, both you and them won't even attend his burial.

Life is so cheap in Nigeria. No one values his or her life.
I was just informed this morning about a 27yr old guy that has been sick for the past 3 months,and has been treating malaria and typhoid on self medication, instead of going to the hospital for proper diagnosis and care.
He was eventually rushed to the hospital yesterday where he was finally diagnosed with advanced HIV/AIDS with numerous opportunistic infections, and he eventually died this morning. It is foolish to allow HIV to progress to AIDS before seeking for medical care, even when the drugs are currently free.
This one above has taken the same foolish pathway.
If Africans don't value life, then, why do they give birth every minute of the day
If you think there's no money, just wait till the guy dies, and you'll see money flow out!

Madagascan president Andry Rajoelina has announced that clinical trials will start today (May 4) with COVID-Organics. A factory will also be built within a month to boost its production.
The president disclosed the developments during a national address on Sunday during which he extended the state of health emergency in the southern African island nation by 15 days.

According to him, the trials were in partnership with foreign researchers. “A pharmaceutical factory will be set up within a month to increase the production capacity of CovidOrganics. It will be administered in other forms such as injections,” Rajoelina posted on Twitter.
The antiviral properties of Artemisia – the anti-malarial plant at the base of COVID-Organics and its role in building immune capacity have been proven, he added without giving details.
“Thanks to this discovery, international researchers and doctors have proposed the construction of the largest cancer center in Africa in Madagascar,” the president disclosed.

The herbal tea/concoction continues to sharply divide opinion among those that say it needs more attention and others who are dismissing as an unproven ‘solution’ to a malady the world is still grappling to get a grip on.
The profile of the drug has been boosted after about half a dozen African leaders publicly endorsed it and requested for consignments. The Malagasy government has so far been distributing it for free in the country and all shipped consignments are for free.
Presidents of Tanzania, Guinea-Bissau, Equatorial Guinea, Comoros, DR Congo, Senegal and the Republic of Congo have congratulated Madagascar for their bold step in combating the rampaging global virus.

You have not even started clinical trials, yet you're already boasting about 'cure'!
In Africa, the cart is always set before the horse.
Now during clinical trials, it'll eventually be found to be useless or even harmful, and discarded.
At times, being "African" appears to mean doing things the wrong way, or even being foolish.
Do your research first, and prove your products before going public. This is not 15th century; it's 21st century.

please help me have been having contant diarrhea with stomach for past 2weeks and unexplained weight loss please nairaland help what drug can i use or what treatment?

Bros, shouldn't you be bothered more by what the diagnosis could be, rather than by what treatment to take?
As you were rightly asked, what's your current HIV status?

Livingseed47:
This is what to do



Your body system has become used to the particular drug because you take it too often. Do this next time, take a mixture, I.e one tablet venturing, and one tablet Franol. Of this is how you've been taking it, later change to two ventolin


I hope you know that counting venturing is more effective than the satchet. So if you've been doing satchet, try counting. Or vice verse



Also, if your body has become too used to this and they are almost ineffective, do not use them for like two weeks interval and replace with a third option. Ask your pharmacist for Predlin or Perilion. Two tablets with aspirin will help



Also note, some inhalers are fake. Whenever you want to buy inhalers you may end up buying three before you can get genuine inhaler

Who's recommending Aspirin for an asthmatic patient??
You haven't heard of Aspirin-induced Asthma(AIA) even in normal patients, let alone asthmatic patients??
If you're not a doctor, please don't recommend drugs for anyone, even if you're a drug dealer or a pharmacist.

"Counting ventolin is more effective than satchet ventolin"! How? What's the scientific/pharmacological basis for that?
It seems you're a patent medicine dealer("Chemist" owner) who deals more on those unbranded, unlabelled, Onitsha and Lagos-made tablets?
Abeg, allow this guy to go to a good hospital to see a respiratory physician.

checky619:
It's Friday 4am I got up, because I was to meet up with my dad friends who will be travelling to visit him, I arrived at the meet up point 5:30am and it was time to move, we started the journey. Approaching ibadan and we started Calling and asking for directions till we finally saw road that leads to the hospital... Driving slowly we diverted into the driveway of UCH (front gate) first thing i Saw was a nurse, probably a student nurse, looking young standing outside looking confused and lost with stains of blood all over his white nurse wear, I started imaging what could have happened, I came to a conclusion that he might have assisted an accident victim that's Why he's stained with blood all over. Still driving in slowly I saw a corpse right at the toll gate of the. emergency, the emergency section have it's own separate drive in gate. There was a dead body right abandoned there, we kept driving in and collected our tag. We where looking for where to park because there was limited parking space, as we kept on driving at a very slow pace, I have never seen so many people unhappy, all I kept seeing were depressed faces and people looking disturbed or subbing and crying or people keeping a straight face with very red eyes. We finally found a place but it's quite far from the hospital wards. I came down and I couldn't imagine how I felt just trying to read and understand what's going on in so many people minds for them to be unhappy or angry. As we started walking towards the wards we pass by the morgue because it's faster to the ward, then I heard a very loud Cry from the voice, he's an elderly person in early 70s. We kept on walking we entered the climbed the first floor and we were going to the 3rd floor. We got there, I saw my mum and hugged her with a sad face on her, same with my brother.

I don't know what you're driving at, but I noticed you didn't show any compassion on that Nurse that soaked herself in a patient's blood. Most stories told by Nigerian patients and relatives are driven by pure selfishness and ignorance about the peculiar nature of the Nigeria system. The nurse with someone's blood stain all over her clothes shows, also, how Nigerian healthcare workers are suffering and working without any form of protection, only to be lashed out at the end by the same patients and their relatives they're taking risks for.
The numerous sad faces and maybe deaths you saw on arrival was mainly because Nigerians patronize those teaching hospitals only when their conditions have become almost irredeemable. They prefer to first go to their pastors/imams, herbalists, or embark on self medication, or poorly equipped and cheap private hospitals, and only go to the teaching hospitals when all hope has been already lost, and yet, expect such hospitals to do miracles.
Which Nigerian goes to the hospitals for check ups when seemingly healthy, as people do abroad? I can swear that the condition that led to your dad vomiting blood didn't start today. Early detection and intervention would have stopped all this stress

Let's wait and see where your story is driving at. So far, I haven't seen anything so shocking, except your lack of compassion on that poor, blood-soaked nurse.
