Occupation, High school shop instructor

For a number of years have experienced on going problems related to bronchial irritation, involving chest
congestion, sore throat and having to expell large amounts of mucus through out the day.
This condition began to occur every fall and into the winter.  At this time I would purchase over the counter
medication which did little or nothing to help the situation. At this point during each occurance I would visit
medical doctor, the doctor would give antibiotics which would help the chest irritation, soreness and
general discomfort. However, the large amounts of mucus expelled would only improve slightly. Eventually
these problems began to happen more frequently and last longer.
Finally I sought help throught alternative healing methods. I went to the oriental healing center, and after a
period of months began to see real improvement which has continued to occur. I have not experienced
bronchial irritation problems since I started attending. I still expell some mucus however the amount is only
a fraction of what it was.


Also for years I have had problems related to frequency of urination. I told Lin about this problem and was
given additional herbs as a result my prostrate problems are much improved.
