Dallewal’s body has become so weak from the hunger strike that he is no longer even able to walk on his own. We must support them. He has only been drinking water for 23 days.
Farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal (70), who has been fasting unto death for 23 days on the Khanauri border between Haryana and Punjab, is at risk of suffering from multiple organ failure. Dallewal already has cancer. Due to fasting, one’s blood pressure also decreases, which can also lead to a heart attack.
.
The team of government doctors treating him recommends his hospitalization. However, Dallewal refused to end the fast until 13 demands were met, including a law guaranteeing minimum support price (MSP) of crops.
Indianewsget spoke to various medical experts regarding the condition of farmer leader Dallewal. Everyone said that if his fast unto death was not quickly broken and he was admitted to the hospital, the situation could get worse.
First of all, know the state of Dallewal and the 4 big dangers linked to it in these 2 graphs…
Dr Priyanshu, cancer specialist at Livasa Hospital, Mohali, said, “Dallewal famine is worrying, he also gave 4 reasons for this…
1. Old age, cancer too, prolonged fasting is not good, Dr. Priyanshu says Jagjit. Dallewal is 70 years old. At this age, many parts of the body weaken with age. Being hungry at this age is not good for the body. Dallewal also has cancer. According to medical journals containing treatment advice from doctors, cancer patients or those undergoing cancer treatment are not allowed to fast for a long time. On the other hand, Dallewal has only been drinking water for 23 days.
2. Immunity will decrease, bad effect on kidney and liver. They are at risk of malnutrition due to prolonged starvation. As a result, the ability to fight diseases, i.e. immunity, decreases. This has a detrimental effect on the kidneys and liver.
Apart from this, Dallewal is old and despite having cancer, he has been hungry for a long time. In such a situation, their sugar may be low. it’s their May cause multiple organ failure.
Dallewal’s condition is continuously deteriorating due to hunger.
3. Renal failure may occur. According to the test report of the doctors treating Dallewal, the creatinine level in his body is increasing. Creatinine is a waste product produced by the breakdown of muscles. Under normal circumstances, the kidneys filter it from the blood and expel it from the body in the form of urine.
But in Dallewal’s case, this creatinine accumulates in the blood. With this, their Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decreases. This means that their kidneys’ ability to filter blood decreases. The level of ketones in his body also increased. As a result, their blood can become toxic. In such cases, kidney failure may occur.
4. Effect of ketones in urine on the body The presence of ketones was found in Dallewal’s urine. This shows that their bodies are now using fat, not glucose, to survive. If it lasts for a long time, it can affect the body’s digestion and memory. Even after breaking the fast unto death, many illnesses may afflict them.
Before continuing to read the news, you can give your opinion on this survey…
Dr. Rakesh Sharma, Senior Professor of Oncologist, Guru Nanak Dev Hospital, Amritsar, expressed 4 major concerns…
1. Reaches the stage of catabolism, self-destruction begins. There is a 7-8 day reserve of glucose in the human body. As soon as the liver’s glucose reserve is depleted, our body begins to consume glucose from the muscles. If they only drink water, their body is not getting enough minerals. Then begins the body’s catabolism phase, during which self-destruction begins. This means that the body begins to eat itself.
2. Despite the cancer, Dallewal’s body is weak due to starvation, he has prostate cancer. If they have already had treatment for it, it won’t affect their body much, but being hungry weakens the body. Due to his age and the cancer, his body cannot handle it.
Farmer leader Dallewal must now be supported and valued.
3. If blood pressure decreases, liquid glucose should be administered immediately. Normally, the blood pressure of men above 60 years of age is 133/69 mm Hg. According to Dallewal’s medical bulletin report, the blood pressure has become 80/50. Due to dehydration, Dallewal’s blood pressure continually drops. In such a situation, it may affect their heart. They should immediately administer liquid glucose so that there is no threat to life.
4. Mineral deficiency first affects the kidneys and then the liver. A normal person needs an average of 2,500 calories per day, with the energy they can use for physical activities. Since Dallewal is not doing any physical work at the moment, his body’s requirement would be 1,000 calories. However, not eating even a single grain of food will lead to mineral deficiency in their body. This is why his kidneys and liver will be affected first. Ultimately, multiple organ failure may occur.
What arrangements are being made for the health of Dallewal at Khanauri border? Two teams of doctors are deployed to monitor the health condition of Dallewal, who is fasting unto death at the Khanauri border. A team consists of government doctors from Patiala. The second team was deployed on behalf of the farmers. Government doctors were only allowed to provide care when their reports matched those of doctors called in by farmers.
The Supreme Court also expressed concern over the health of farmer leader Jagjit Dallewal. During the hearing on December 13, the Supreme Court had said that life is more important than hustle and bustle. After this, orders were given to the Punjab government and the central government to provide medical aid to Dallewal immediately.
