I can’t believe people still go to these guys. A relative of mine got herself into serious trouble yesterday because she had stopped taking her diabetes medication and was using some dawai she got from a hakeem.

I still don’t know the full details but they said some blood capillary in her stomach was ruptured and there was blood everywhere in her stomach. She has been vomitting blood since yesterday. When she was taken to the emergency, they said she might or might not make it but Alhumdulillah her condition is stabilised now. That’s all I know for now.

PLEASE stay away from hakeems when you can afford professional health care.

Was the bleeding due to the hakeem’s medication? If so that’s really dangerous and he should be stopped from practicing. Just to let you know stopping diabetic medication doesn’t cause stomach bleeds… it sounds like she had a stomach ulcer that eroded into a blood vessel in her stomach.

With conditions like diabetes its a life long chronic problem that eventually just gets worse and worse as you age, a lot of the “hakeems” offer cures, which are impossible but it’s what tempts people. However there are natural remedies which seem help control blood sugar better things like bitter gourd, but they should always be taken WITH the diabetic medication.
