payment, I heard that there was some argument about my room and therefore I felt disgusted and decided to cancel the operation at Breach Candy and come home. Then I consulted Dr. Sujeet Rajan, the chest and lung specialist at Bhatia Hospital. He suggested that I should get the biopsy done by Dr. Vipul Rathod at the Hospital. He did the biopsy and the endoscopy at the same time with ease and the biopsy pieces were sent for testing for malignancy. Dr. Rajan also suggested that I should get operated at Tata Memorial Hospital by Dr. Parul Shukla. As such, I immediately consulted Dr. Shukla and told him that I would not like to have the operation done if there was to be chemotherapy treatment later on. Dr. Shukla assured me that there would not be any necessity of chemotherapy after proper examination although he mentioned that it was a high risk operation. As such, I had this cancer operation done at the Tata Memorial Hospital and the tumour removed in October 2007 and I recovered like a normal person.

Since then I was progressing well carrying out my normal activities, but then in the month of April 2010 I had a pain in the stomach. So, Dr. Rajan decided that I should consult Dr. Anand Nande because it seemed to be hernia. Dr. Nande advised me that I have a hernia problem but as long as the hernia is dormant nothing needs to be done. If at a later stage the hernia pops up, then I should have the operation done. As such, end of October 2010 I again had pain and the hernia had popped up and after a little while it again subsided. On consulting Dr. Nande the next day, he advised that the hernia operation should be undertaken as soon as possible as otherwise later on it might require an emergency surgery. As such, I was admitted to Bombay Hospital and had the operation performed on October 4, 2010. I had a lot of pain after this operation and the doctor advised me to remain at home after being discharged from the hospital for atleast a month from the date of the operation and only then I should resume my normal activities.
