The Dhaka Times Desk That water saves people's lives! That water made a woman's life miserable. He can't cry even if he is sad because he is allergic to water!
That woman's bath is a long way off, even wiping her body is like death to her. He has to stop even if he cries in pain. Because those tears will roll down from the eyes and down the cheeks and his skin will burn. His body will burn!
Everyone reaches for the water bottle after waking up every morning. He was also forced to drink water when his throat was dry at seven in the morning. But when that water touches the tongue and goes down the throat, it seems that it is not water, but as if you are drinking poison. He is not from another world, but his world is very different. Her name is Rachel Wick. Rachel is extremely allergic to water.
Rachel has a name for this water allergy - aquagenic urticaria. Its symptoms are a burning sensation all over the body. It also has cold symptoms like low fever, runny nose, watery eyes, headache, sneezing, chest tightness. All this Rachel has to endure every day. In this situation, it may seem that Rachel is alive with all these symptoms without drinking water or bathing! Where the human body is 60 percent water, a proof-size adult weighing 70 kg contains at least 40 liters of water, how could Rachel be allergic to water?
Rachel's doctors said that the water stored in the body is not much of a problem here. It becomes a problem when the water comes in contact with the skin or when water enters the body from outside. If this water is expelled from the body, it also becomes a problem. While treating Rachel, the doctors found that water that had been purified several times did not help. The same reaction is happening in his body.
There is no medicine for this disease. The drug given by doctors called omalizumab, which has solved some cases, is also skyrocketing in price. No health insurance in the world wants to cover that price. Rachel wanted to buy the medicine and couldn't buy it.
The patients of this disease are only a few. One in every 23 crore people may have such ailment. As such, there can only be 32 patients like Rachel in the whole world.
Rachel was disappointed that she would not get rid of the disease. Her husband gave her mental strength. who has been looking after Rachel for a long time. Rachel, drink milk instead of water. It eased his pain to some extent. But not resolved. What would Rachel do if her disease could ever be cured? He was asked to know such things. "I'll go to the ocean first," said Rachel. I will get wet again in the rain.
