Ilang mga linggo ko na ring nao-obserbahan sa clinic sa Caloocan at sa mga estudyante sa isang unibersidad sa Quezon City na napakarami ng nagpapakonsulta dahil sa lagnat, ubo, sipon, sakit ng ulo, pangangati ng lalamunan at may kasama pang panghihina ng katawan. Sa ganitong panahon ng taon ay talaga namang inaasahan na magiging karaniwan ang mga sakit kagaya ng trangkaso (influenza) at iba pang mga kondisyon kagaya ng ibang upper respiratory tract infection dulot ng mga virus. Kung may nararamdaman na na mga sintomas, huwag na pumasok sa opisina o sa eskwelahan. Manatili na muna sa bahay, iwasang makihalubilo at magpagaling para hindi na kumalat ang impeksyon. Gumamit ng face mask at ugaliing maghugas ng kamay. Palakasin ang resistensya sa katawan sa pamamagitan ng pagkakaroon ng sapat na tulog o pahinga at pagkain ng mga masusustansiyang pagkain. Ingatan ang katawan at iwasang magkaroon ng mga komplikasyon lalo na sa mga bata at mga may edad.

Due to the recent increase in flu-like and upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) cases among students, FEU Diliman will shift to 𝙨𝙮𝙣𝙘𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙪𝙨 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙨 for 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗟𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗟𝗦 tomorrow, Tuesday, 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟰, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱.

Stay safe, Tamaraws.

Malaki ang role ng lifestyle kung paano mapapanatili ang buhay at kalusugan ng isang tao. Hindi kailangang magkasakit at bawian ng buhay ng maaga. Kailangan ka ng pamilya mo at mga mahal sa buhay kaya baguhin ang lifestyle at pahabain ang buhay. 😊🏃🛌🥗

My dad passed away in his early 40s.
That’s one of the biggest reasons why I do what I do now.

He was young. Akalain mo 40s pa lang. 😬
Tapos anim kaming magkakapatid.
Pero sa totoo lang, parang tanda niya na noon.

Pagod. Sakitin. Mataas ang BP.

I didn’t know it then, pero lifestyle pala talaga.
Years of not moving enough, not eating right, not resting well —
unti-unting bumabawi ang katawan.

Until one day, he was just… gone.

Hindi ko siya masisisi.
Wala namang nagturo sa kanya kung paano maging malusog habang tumatanda.
Wala namang nag-remind sa kanya na hindi pa huli ang lahat.

Kaya siguro, ngayon ko naiintindihan kung bakit ko ginagawa to.

I coach people in their 40s and 50s and even 70s.
not just to look good,
but to stay strong.
To be present sa buhay ng pamilya nila.
To feel alive, not just surviving.

Kung tatay ka, nanay ka, asawa,
someone out there needs you well.
Not just around — but strong, functional, joyful.

And if no one told you this before, let me be the first:
You still have time.
You still matter.
And you’re not too late to start.

Saw a patient who is a basketball athlete who was hit by another player on the right side of the neck during a match. A review of the game video showed that he fell a few seconds after the impact. He came to the clinic two days later complaining of a headache (pain score 4/10) located on the top of his head. He was fully conscious and had no symptoms such as increased sleepiness, dizziness, blurred vision, vomiting, weakness, seizures, loss of balance, or facial asymmetry. I referred him to a tertiary hospital for further evaluation and management of his headache. Praying that this is not a serious case of traumatic brain injury or any neurologic condition. Hoping for the safety of all athletes of this new UAAP season.

Just saw a patient I've been working on for possible urinary tract stones. He returned with his KUB ultrasound results showing normal kidneys, ureters, and bladder — except for an incidental finding of prostate enlargement. From simply treating his hyperuricemia and possible urinary tract stones, we’re now moving toward managing his prostate enlargement. Have you ever experienced getting an incidental finding during a doctor’s visit? How did it change your life?

Saw a patient who presented to the clinic with high blood pressure. Upon further inquiry, she had been experiencing anxiety for the past few weeks, described by her daughter as an unreasonable fear triggered by various sources, including hearing news of earthquakes from Cebu, and sometimes accompanied by crying while watching TV shows. She shared that everything she was feeling started when her pet dog died in February 2025.

To those who have lost their beloved pets, how has this affected your physical and mental health? How did you cope with the loss?
