A Remarkable Recovery From COPD Within A Year At Life Force
A 37-year-old male, Mr. M.N.P. (PIN: 33026) started treatment for his complaints of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) since July 2018 from Life Force Homeopathy at Sassoon branch.
The patient had been complaining of a recurrent dry and hawking cough with scanty, white expectoration from the last one and a half years. He used to experience a constant irritation of the throat and hawking. The patient also used to experience breathlessness on exertion and sleeplessness due to the complaint. The complaints used to occur daily and used to get aggravated by lying down.
On examination, the wheezing sound could be heard. Lab investigations suggested that the patient had Leukocytosis with a marked Eosinophilia.
The patient had a habit of smoking and drinking alcohol in the past. He was a vegetarian by diet and craved for salty food. Thermally, he was chilly.
The patient was very punctual, and he also expected others to follow the same. He used to get angry if anyone contradicted him.
After going through his case, Dr. Shah prescribed him research-based molecules for 6 weeks.
