My Health Checkup and that One Call..

Jai Guru Ji


Guruji always direct us to what is good and important for us.

I get my health checkup done every year and this gives me anxiety..some days before and some days after the checkup.  This year, I bravely decided that I will not get it done..I am perfectly alright and I am feeling healthy.  Because of this overconfidence, I started neglecting my eating habits and workouts.  I was getting into that 'All is Well and I can be lazy' trap.  5 months passed since the due checkup date.

But somewhere I had this thought of whether I should get it done or not.  I spoke to Guruji and told him. 'Guruji, I am taking this very brave decision for me. I am not getting my health checkup done this year.  If you feel that I should get it done, either you come or speak to me or let Apollo Hospital people call me that my health check up is due' (Apollo hospital never calls people to follow up, I was very sure, even if you miss it for 2-3 years)

After about a month, I got a call from APOLLO Hospital. They said 'Madam, your health checkup is due' and I was like 'What?? you are calling me, you never call!'.  I immediately realised that this is a directive from Guruji and after  15 days I went for my annual health checkup.

Nurse checked the BP and she said it is high.  I said, it cannot be, may be because of anxiety, it is high.  She checked 2-3 times and it was still high.  I went to the hospital  physician and he said 'It is high and you should start taking BP medicine immediately'.  I tried explaining it to doctor that it may be due to anxiety, but he refused to listen and prescribed me BP medicine.  I looked at Guruji swaroop in amazement 'Why Guruji, why?'

I went for my Gynae checkup and the doctor said that I had some  infection, which I had no symptom of, and she gave me some mild medicines to eat.

I had go to general physician again (same day) and I told him to check my BP again.  This time, it was perfectly normal.  Doctor was surprised, he said 'aapne medicine le li kya? (have you already taken the medicine)? and I said NO.  He said dont take medicine now, but generally keep your lifestyle healthy.

So, in nutshell, without this checkup I would have never realised that my BP was going on a higher side and of that Gynae infection and it could have been worse.  But Guruji knew it and therefore the most un-expected call from Apollo came.

Guruji.. you are so caring and loving.  What would have I done without you.  Thank you so much!

Jai Guruji
