Dr. Shayeque Reza
I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

Given your situation, a few considerations would be important for gaining weight in a healthy way. To start off, focus on increasing your calorie intake with nutrient-dense foods. Since you’re eating hostel food and have budget constraints, prioritizing calorie-rich but not necessarily expensive foods can be helpful. Try to include foods like bananas, peanut butter, eggs, and full-fat dairy—like milk and yogurt—as part of each meal. Incorporating more frequent meals could help too, aiming for three main meals along with snacks in between. You mentioned homemade or ayurvedic powder—consider making a weight gain shake that includes blended oats, bananas, peanut butter, and milk, which is cost-effective and calorically rich. Protein is crucial for healthy weight gain, try to add legumes, beans, and cottage cheese, which are usually accessible and affordable. Now, given your GIT concerns and episodic vertigo and sweating, it’s important to consider if these episodes could be linked to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or any vasovagal response. Keeping a small snack handy might help prevent these episodes; light snacks with carbohydrates and proteins like a granola bar or fruit with nuts. However, it’s vital to have a medical evaluation done to rule out potential underlying issues—detailed blood work and perhaps a consultation with an endocrinologist or gastroenterologist could provide deeper insights, particularly if there’s a suspicion of malabsorption or metabolic conditions. Make sure to maintain hydration and a balanced intake of electrolytes. It’s advisable to avoid fast metabolism misconceptions without proper consultation, as sometimes unexpected symptoms can relate to specific physiological conditions that require direct professional evaluation. Additionally, given the profound interest in changing your physical appearance, consider discussing this comprehensively with a healthcare provider to ensure there’s no underlying body image concerns impacting your health goals.
