It is high time that we doctors come out of the notion that Medicine is merely a Science, but that there is something beyond that. Medical professionals all over the world now seriously discuss about the role of human consciousness in the disease process. They have given different terminologies like " psychosomatic", "PNI (Psycho-Neuro-Immunology", "Mind Body Medicine" etc etc.
All of us must have experienced in our day to day interaction with patients, that the Mindset of the patient ( and of course that of the physician) plays a major role, how fast and whether the patient recovers from a medical condition. I invite you to share your views on this aspect and maybe we can initiate a think tank to further discuss and share our experiences within the group and outside.
