COPD + brain stroke PremLata
Hello Doctors,
My mother, 70 years, suffered a left frontal brain stroke and currently in the INK Kolkata(neurological care only). Neurosurgeon said she is now neurologically fine.
She suffers from COPD for almost 2 3 years.
Right now her Oxygen intake is increasing, though Bipap is not needed. Steroids and antibiotics are being administered.
Attached chest xray and ct scan Thorax.
Kindly suggest what should be done next! And status of her lungs. Please !
Thanks!
