Cough takes forever to go away for me. Do you have sinus issues?

[Chokit in reply to Tree20862]

Yes, seems to be hard to shift, I am on Avamys nasal spray & motelukast tabs as well as Seretide....just so choked up with coughing..

Try sleeping with chest near vertical. I have done that when I had very bad cough.
