GOANEWS DESK, PANAJI | 15 May 2016 11:23 IST
Writer-turned-politician St Andre MLA Vishnu Wagh survived a massive heart attack last night due to emergency treatment by the Goa Medical College hospital.
Cardiologist Dr Manjunath Desai, who was incidentally present when Wagh was rushed to the hospital, immediately conducted angioplasty, clearing two blocked arteries.
He was brought to the hospital gasping and was immediately put on ventilator, said GMC sources.
According to information, Wagh’s kidney function has also damaged as he was suffering with high diabetes besides hypertension.
Wagh collapsed on the stage when he rose up to speak at the 60th birthday of Anil Hoble, the Bhandari Samaj leader.
GMC sources say Wagh is now out of danger but needs further surveillance till he becomes stable.
Wagh had made a debut in the Goa Assembly by getting elected on the BJP ticket from St Andre, after quitting Congress before 2012 election.
In electoral politics, Wagh has also travelled in the Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party and Shiv Sena.
However, he is more known as a versatile writer, actor and impressive speaker, bagging several awards in the field of literature and drama in Goa and Maharashtra.
He is the chairman of Goa Kala Academy.
Bodgeshwar and other Gods who heard the 'Garane' by Vishnu during the MOI agitation against Digambar Govt. must have been really pissed off with his stance now.,
Isn't this a good proof that Bodgeshwar is a ' jagrut dev'?
Sorry Mr. Wagh, but wasn't he a time bomb, with all the fat and lard holding like an inflated sail on the thin skeleton? Probably should have made better choices in life. I hope it is a lesson for all to maintain some health.
Sir get well soon god is there dont worry .om shree brahmanayan namah.u vll recover.
In June of 2014, it was discovered that I had type 2 diabetes. By the end of the month, June 26th to be exact, I was given a prescription for Metformin. Under the direction of my doctor, I stated the ADA diet and followed it completely for several weeks but was unable to get my blood sugar below 140. With no results to how for my hard work, I panicked and called my doctor. His response? Deal with it. With was then that I began to feel that something wasn’t right and began to do my own research. It was through that research that I found this book http://www.myhealthlives.com . I purchased it and read it from cover to cover that same day. That day, I started the diet and by the next morning, my blood sugar was 100. The next day, it read in the 90s for the first time since I was diagnosed. Since then, I have a fasting reading between the mid 70s and 80s. My doctor was so surprised at the results that, the next week, he took me off the Metformin.
Following the lifestyle changes in the book, I lost 30 pounds in the first month. Since that first day, I have lost more than 6 inches off my waist because I’m able to work out twice a day while still having lots of energy. I’m happy to say that I only have 20 pounds to go until I reach my ideal weight. The greatest thing about this whole process is that this lifestyle change actually works! It’s simple enough that it makes sense and it’s something I can actually do. The ADA should tell the truth: you don’t have to take drugs to be healthy. With simple changes in your lifestyle, and taking the processed foods out of your diet, anyone can do this!
Jhalmya,
Bodgeshwar should punish many more who have committed very ghastly crimes in his name/and gharaanes then poor Vishnu. Much of what Vishnu suffered is by his own doing and not related to any gods!
