Cough For Over a Month? Posted: 08-06-05 14:25pm


I've been coughing for over a month now... I started coughing as soon as my flu was gone... And it is still here. And it's not comfortable.. I'd cough so much.. My throat would hurt.. Not the normal sore throat.. It's cuz of forceful coughs.. And i've been to my doc. And he juss gave me this sybicort turbuhaler 100. It's asthma medication.. And it's not helping me.. I'm still coughing quite a bit. Due to this.. I've lost weight.. And am not able to eat much lately. I never really want to eat. And when I do eat.. I can't eat as much as I used to be able to eat.. And then i'd want to throw up afterwards.... Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi there! Be honest with your Dr., tell him everything and remember, you do have a right to a second opinion. I am no dr and I do not know you but my opinion is, is that you need some cough medicine with some promethazine in it to slow down the cough and to keep you from getting nauseated, which is what the promethazine will help do for you. Sometimes you just have to stay on these dr's arse, if you know what I mean. Good luck and keep us posted on how you are doing. You might want to look up that medication and see if that is some of the side effects. Hope you feel better fast. And also walmart and the other drug stores sells their brand of anti-nausea medication and you can always check with a pharmacist to see if they are alright to take together or if they have any suggestions, sometimes they know more than drs.
