Weekly report

Building Your Healthcare Team

There's a popular misconception that, because COPD can't be cured , it can't be treated. There is a difference curing a disease and managing it , and when it comes to COPD , managing the disease well means managing virtually every aspect of your physical and mental health.

Your healthcare team can help you do just that. It starts with your primary- care physician, who is familiar with your overall health and can provide you with information, tests and checkups to make sure other potential health concerns, don't get forgotten in the efforts to treat your COPD symptoms.

Your primary-care physician also is an invaluable contact for referrals to specialists and programs that can help you with your COPD. Specialists may include 

a pulmonologist , who has additional training and expertise in treating lung disease; 

a nutritionist or registered dietitian , who can help you design a healthy eating plan that suits your your needs and lifestyle; 

an occupational therapist who can show you ways to adjust your routine and the way you move your body to conserve energy; 

and perhaps a counselor or therapist, who can help you cope with the common emotional and mental aspects of being diagnosed with a chronic disease.

In case you don't have a doctor yet you see regularly we start off with a quick guide to finding the right primary-care doctor for you.

When you have COPD, or suspect you may have it, it's time to get serious about finding a doctor you're comfortable with. For one thing , your health insurer may not pay for the care of a specialist unless your primary-care physician first makes a referral. For another , even if you've never gone in for regular checkups before , you're going to have to build them into your schedule now, and regular checkups are more useful -and a lot less hassle-if the same doctor sees you each time.
