Given your age and existing health conditions of diabetes and hypertension, experiencing sudden mental confusion, dizziness, and gastric problems, particularly during physical activity, requires careful attention. These symptoms may be linked to fluctuations in blood sugar levels or blood pressure, especially after prolonged walking or physical exertion. To manage these issues, a holistic approach involving dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and Ayurvedic treatments is essential.

Firstly, ensure that your meals are well-balanced and regular, focusing on complex carbohydrates, lean proteins, and healthy fats to maintain stable blood sugar levels. Incorporate foods like whole grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits, while avoiding high-sugar foods and refined carbohydrates that can cause rapid spikes and drops in blood sugar. It’s important to stay hydrated, as dehydration can worsen dizziness and confusion. Aim to drink plenty of water throughout the day, and consider including herbal teas like ginger or peppermint to aid digestion.

In terms of Ayurvedic treatments, consider taking Triphala, which can help with digestive issues and improve overall gut health. Ashwagandha is beneficial for managing stress and enhancing mental clarity. For hypertension, herbs such as Arjuna and Brahmi can support cardiovascular health and cognitive function. Additionally, Guggulu can aid in managing cholesterol levels, which is important for overall heart health.

It is also crucial to monitor your blood sugar and blood pressure regularly, and discuss any medication adjustments with your healthcare provider. Implementing a gentle exercise routine, such as walking or yoga, can help improve circulation and stability, but ensure to start slowly and avoid overexertion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly, as these may require immediate intervention.

Alright, I see you’re dealing with some troubling symptoms. Mixing dizzy spells and mental fuzziness with your condition can feel unsettling. Considering you have diabetes and high blood pressure, the first thing is to make sure everything’s checked out medically. Blood sugar dropping too low (hypoglycemia) or high blood pressure issues could make you feel dizzy and mentally off. Safety first: if this episode feels intense, don’t hesitate to reach out to a doctor.

From an Ayurvedic perspective, let’s get to those symptoms. Your dizziness, gastric issues, and confusion could be signs of imbalances in your Vata dosha, affecting your nervous system and digestion. It’s crucial to ground Vata. Start with adjusting your diet and routine a bit. Eating warm, cooked meals, with a bit of oil and avoiding iced drinks, might help. Think digestion-friendly: simple lentil soup seasoned with ginger, cumin, and maybe a bit of asafoetida to keep things stable.

You might wanna incorporate something like Triphala at night. It’s pretty gentle and helps with digestive issues. Just a teaspoon with warm water before sleeping. For daily routine tweaks, consider a consistent sleep schedule and some light yoga to keep balance. But take it easy, don’t push hard!

Another thing—when that dizziness kicks in, it’s handy to have some warm herbal tea, like ginger or licorice. Sit down, take a breather. Practicing Pranayama (relaxed breathing) might help calm your mind and reduce confusion. If you gotta walk and feel dizzy, stop, sit down, drink a little water.

Last, stress levels can play tricks on us too. Embrace some relaxation techniques: could be something, as simple as sitting quietly or watching nature. Do remember, get those medical checks lined up to rule out anything serious with your existing conditions. Take care!

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

Dr. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Mohammad Faizan Siddiqui
I am working in the field of Ayurveda from last few years, around 3+ yrs now, and honestly the journey’s taught me more than books ever could. I got to work with quite a mix of setups—NirogStreet, MyUpchar, Gorgeouss Atara, Dr. Monga Medi Clinic, Aksa Ayurveda—each one totally diff but gave me solid ground-level clinical exp that kinda reshaped how I understand patient care. I didn't just follow protocols, I had to see what's working and why. At MyUpchar and NirogStreet, online consultations made me rethink the way we connect with people—harder in some ways, but weirdly more personal too at times. It pushed me to explain things better, listen more carefully, and figure out how to build trust even on screen. I used those convos to craft custom treatment plans, balancing Ayurvedic classics with modern lifestyle tweaks—especially for folks dealing with digestion issues, hormone chaos, PCOS, stress burnout, and hair-skin flareups. Dr. Monga and Aksa gave me more complex, offline cases, real-world scenarios where I couldn’t just say "take this churnam". It was more—analyzing Dosha states, checking Prakriti-vikriti patterns, managing metabolic stuff like pre-diabetes, obesity or PCOD that don't show textbook behavior. Had to rely on pulse-reading, gut sense (literally and otherwise), and yeah, a fair bit of patient education too, coz if people don’t get what’s happening inside them, results don't last. Mostly, I use herbs, Panchakarma detox (only when needed tho—not overusing it), food timing, routines, even breathwork sometimes, all tailored to their body types. I’m not into one-size-fits-all stuff. Each plan’s personal and flexible…like if someone works night shifts or can’t quit coffee or lives alone—I keep that in mind while suggesting treatments. For me, Ayurveda’s not about just fixing disease.. it's more like guiding ppl back to their baseline. Not perfect health maybe, but balance. And yeah, I'm still learning every day through these exp’s, refining my approach, trying to go deeper into root-cause level care instead of just symptom handling. That’s kinda what keeps me at it.

Dr. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

Dr. Srinivasa Debata
I am a second-gen Vaidya—Ayurveda was literally around me all the time since childhood, not just as medicines or clinic work, but in our food, lifestyle, even convos at home. Practicing for 17+ yrs now, I mostly work on neuro-musculo-skeletal conditions & pain stuff—things like cervical or lumbar spine issues, nerve compressions, frozen shoulders, long-term stiffness, stroke rehab, even post-surgical chronic pain that keeps showing up again n again. I don’t stick to one-line protocols, never worked for my patients that way. I mix core Ayurvedic methods—Panchakarma, Basti, Marma points, oils, swedana, all that—with Acupuncture, some Quantum therapy tools I picked up later, & sometimes Mantra chikitsa if the pattern’s deeper. When a case’s stubborn, I even consider Jyotish influences—not for predictions, but to spot repeating energetic patterns. Not everyone is open to that part tho. And that's fine. In cases like hemiplegia, trauma, or conditions where ppl have lost function, I track even the smallest progress—finger twitching after 20 days of nothing can be huge. But all of this only works if the root constitution’s understood. Prakriti-Vikriti is non-negotiable, otherwise treatments just float around without landing. Every patient who comes to me brings a different puzzle. I don’t use fixed “packages”—each treatment becomes its own evolving plan, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. But I always stay close to the classical Ayurvedic base—text-based logic, herbs, diagnosis through pulse or tongue—but yeah, I'm flexible about *how* we apply those principles. The work is demanding but I actually like digging deep into complex pain pathways, where both physical & emotional imprints need untangling. That’s where Ayurveda, if applied with care & intuition, really shines.
