Chitwan, Nepal

I was born in Patihani villages of Chitwan District, Nepal in August 22, 1971.  Being the youngest child, I do remember being raised with lots of love and affection by my family.  When I entered my youth (age of 16), I suffered from a heart disease, which devastated my dreams and wishes.  I had tonsillitis and fever occasionally which I used to treat traditionally by gargling with salt water, taking painkillers and Cetamol which did gave me relief but then the tonsillitis keptreoccurring.Since we did not have the knowledge this traditional treatment of gargling, Cetamol and painkiller would not cure tonsillitisbut would lead to heart disease, we kept repeating the same treatment again and again which would give me relief for the time being.

Ramechhap, Nepal

I am born in Ramechhap District in a poor family.  During those period of time, proper health study is not available in my place.  I had a sore throat at the age of 10 but lack of information lead me to treat it by home remedies.  At around class four when I was around 10 years old, I noticed a joint pain which is again treated traditionally.  At the age of 12, I could feel my heart pounding from outside of my chest.  But due to lack of information, appropriate knowledge and finance, my family did not gave emphasis on it and I stayed without treatment until 18.  At the age of 18, I was doing my Bachelors in Humanities at Mahendra Morang Aadarsha Multiple campus, Biratnagar, I had a huge perspiration and went to check up at KoshiAnchal Hospital, where I was diagnosed as a RHD patient and started penicillin instantly.  They did not had an echocardiography machine there at that time and asked me to visit to Kathmandu for Echocardiography testing.
