After Eman Ahmed left her home In Alexandria, four months back, her mother and niece arrive in Abu Dhabi to meet Ahmed, who for the first time has started chewing her own food after bariatric surgery in March this year.
The ability to swallow food and not rely on tube feeding shows a significant improvement in her rehabilitation procedure.
According to reports, Eman suffers from difficulty in speaking and swallowing functions due to a brain stroke that also left her right side paralysed.
Eman was shifted to Abu Dhabi, after her sister sought medical assistance from VPS Healthcare following a clash with Saifee hospital in Mumbai where Eman underwent three month long treatment and a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy surgery.
Ahmed’s sister had alleged that she was not receiving proper treatment at the privately-owned hospital in Mumbai. She alleged that the doctors at Saifee, made “false claims” about Ahmeds recovery and weight loss. The claim caused a stir among Egyptians as the local media published Shaimaa’s accusations along with Indian doctors comments, photos and videos, showing Ahmed’s weight loss.
Eman Ahmed continues to undergo strict diet regime for weight loss although doctors did not divulge her current weight.
Eman weighed an estimated 500 kgs when she was air lifted from Egypt to India for weight reduction treatment. In three months doctors at Saifee hospital claim her weight dipped to 170 kgs.
According to doctors, Eman’s anti epileptic medication have been modified to advanced drugs as per international guidelines. She suffered a stroke three years ago. In three months in Mumbai she suffered at least eight seizures.
