 I saved my brothers' life. Yes, you read it right.Might be I strongly believe my instinct. It was during his 10th board exams.

He had mild fever, swelling and pain in throat. My mom spoke with relatives about it and gave some home remedies, considered it as one type of pox. On second day, he got swelling in his legs too. My father decided to give him a paracetamol (fever tablet), as he was looking normal and active, he postponed the doctor visit due to his exams. But, my instinct found it wrong. I went to dad and argued with him to take him to hospital.

He finally took him to an local doctor. He asked to take blood test and found something fishy. So, he asked us to take him to a famous kidney specialty hospital. We got scared and got appointment through referral. Finally, results came after all the tests. It was glomerulonephritis.

Glomerulonephritis is inflammation of the tiny filters in your kidneys (glomeruli). Glomeruli remove excess fluid, electrolytes and waste from your bloodstream and pass them into your urine

Doctor told that we had admitted him in a right time or else he would be at a great risk or no more. Because of that problem, kidney filtering process became severely low and all the waste got accumulated in his legs, neck,face etc.. , It was the reason for swelling.

He went through a course of medications and strict diet. Finally,He got recovered completely.

Keep smiling!
