Learn about copd Treatment and Case Study by Dr. Kathy Ulrich If you have conditions such as COPD, Emphysema and Chronic Bronchitis and want to learn more about copd and possible treatments to improve your condition, here you may find that COPD related shortness of breath, cough and phlegm can be addressed by therapies offered in Dr. Kathy Ulrich’s office. COPD, Emphysema and Chronic Bronchitis Treatment by Dr. Ronald Mullen COPD, Emphysema and Chronic Bronchitis are due to the early degeneration of lung structure including the alveoli, bronchioles and bronchi, which results in difficulties to breath and excessive phlegm production. The therapy in my clinic is to focus on helping patients to restore the lung structure and function. As patients’ lung structure improving, they will breathe better with less oxygen dependence, shortness of breath, less coughing and phlegm and more productive cough to expel phlegm. Patients can notice a difference with 2-4 weeks of treatments. The treatment can provide a semi-permanent fix with long lasting results and patients only need minimum maintenance treatment later on. 1) Mild and Moderate COPD, Emphysema, and Chronic Bronchitis Patients with mild condition (usually under 50) can become symptom free with 2-4 weeks of treatment. Patients with moderate conditions (usually from 50 to 65) who are not on oxygen can be symptom free with 1-2 months of treatment. 2) Severe COPD, Emphysema, and Chronic Bronchitis Patients with severe condition (typically over 65) who are on oxygen require 3 to 4 months of treatment. Within 2 weeks of treatment, patients should have a reduced shortness-of-breath, coughing with phlegm, and improved energy level. With 1 month of treatment, patients should have reduced oxygen dependence. With 2 months of treatment, patient should have 50% symptom improvement. A continued 3 to 4 months of treatment is required to achieve reversal of the lung degeneration. Treatment of Advanced COPD Kathy Ulrich, DC Albuquerque, NM 87112 55 year old male, advanced COPD, oxygen at 100% at all times. Patient had almost no endurance; he coughed up a large amount of fluid daily at a constant rate. He began using the herbal supplement as directed; within six months his lungs were virtually dry. Within nine months or so, we added the pills/capsules to build endurance. The change was amazing. He is still on oxygen, but he can think more clearly, has exercise endurance, and due to the use of herbal patches at sternum-rib cage junction, he is no longer taking morphine for pain of “barrel-chesting” expansion – rib case pain was eliminated by means of three patches. His comfort level as well as his willingness to live has improved remarkably.
