According to Dr Kumar, the 50-year-old woman experienced dizziness, nausea, and vomiting symptoms, which started while she was getting her "hair washed with shampoo in a beauty parlour ". He writes that the woman was "initially taken to a gastroenterologist, who treated her symptomatically". As her symptoms did not improve, "the next day she developed mild imbalance while walking ".
After this, she was referred to Dr Kumar for an opinion.
