Recently we had to visit the Medical Center for a procedure to be done by Gastroenterologist. It took alot of time starting from registration to be called and becoming ready for the Endoscopy.
After the procedure I had to go to Doctor’s clinick to get some samples enough for a few weeks.

Herbs of Aromatherapy
Let’s talk about the therapy using the smells…yes, I mean the aromatherapy. Here, I’m going to tell you about the herbs which are can be commonly used in aromatherapy. Following picture is just a broad representation of all the benefits.
Aromatherapy can benefit you in more ways than just smelling good! It can provide benefits such as:
– Relaxation and stress relief
– Mood enhancement, balance and well being
– Relief of minor discomforts
– Boosts immunity, and supports the respiratory and circulatory systems

Breathing in the wonderful smells of different aromatherapy oils and herbs have a way of actually shifting your emotions and thoughts in a more positive way! As the scents are inhaled the smells travel to the area of the brain called the Limbic System, which, when stimulated, releases endorphins (feel-good chemicals)
Essential oils have been used for centuries to:
– Heal wounds
– Energize
– Improve skin tone
– Relax muscles
– Regulate hormones
– Reduce inflammation
– Relieve menstrual cramps
– Improve sleep
– Stimulate the immune system
– Kill fungal & bacterial infections
– Decrease congestion
– Aid digestion
– Relieve tension headaches
– Aid blood circulation
Doctor Appointment
It was my first Doctor’s Appointment in USA. Initially I had scheduled for Friday afternoon at 2 PM. Later, I got the call from his office and it was rescheduled to Monday at 2PM. As both of us work and my wife drives to her workplace, She had to come and pick me up to visit Doctor. For a 2 PM appointment she left her office at 1:19, picked me up at 1:30 and we were there at 1:40. I was the first one in the que, however as it was the first time for me to be there I had to fill a 4 page form giving summary of my health records.
After 2:15 the nurse came and brought us in a room, where she did the blood pressure measurement along with heart beat and oxygenation of blood estimation. She left in two minutes and we had to wait for another 5 min. to see the doctor. he came and asked some general questions like where I work and if I am allergic to something etc. When I talked about my problem, he listened, checked it with a torch and said I don’t know what it is but I can give you some medicine that you can try.
I told him that I m not very fond of medicines and would be better if he can refer to a specialist, that he did with pleasure. I went to pay the fee, where the secretary tried to schedule an appointment with nearby dermatologist but found that the doctor doesnt accept my insurance. She took sometime and then scheduled an appointment with dermatologist at another clinic.
