Agape often sees very interesting medical patients. Several patients had a BP so high that our BP cuff could not register it!!!! This lady has a BP of more that 300/180. We have seen more than a dozen of these cases and they still amaze us.

The Systolic pressure was off the scale because our BP cuff would only measure 300 mm Hg.!! Doctors, like to see the bottom number (diastolic) below 90 if possible, or at least between 90-100. We saw one patient with a diastolic pressure of 220 mm Hg and 30 minutes later another with a diastolic of 200. The lady in the picture has a diastolic pressure of 180.

According to the medical books, all these people should be dead from a stroke!! But, they are not, and many of them have no complaints. One person started doing exercises and said “I feel fine”.

Rickets is often seen in the far northern regions! Most physicians in western countries will never see this disease except in a textbook. But, the Health Ministry estimates that 50% of the children in the far north suffer from the affects of Rickets.

Rickets is a severe bone deforming disease caused by a lack of Vitamin D and sunlight. It mostly affects growing children. This child is nearly 4 years old and because of the severe deformity of the legs, she can barely walk!! When treated early Rickets is curable with proper medicines.

Fungal nails: This is a rare fungal disease of the nails and because it has been untreated for many years, it has also caused deformity of the fingers. It is hard to do the simplest things when your hands are deformed this way.
