persistant cough

over the last couple of weeks iv developed a nasty cough that actually makes me bawk , i bring up clear or white mucus stuff and my chest tightens. I have noticed that sprays like fabreeze makes it worse so iv been avoiding them. Im on the symbicort smart programme and ventolin plus montelucast (sp) tablet. Iv had to use my home neb once and get to see the thoracic clinic in two weeks, do you think i should just carry on or tell my asthma nurse about this ....and is it normal to get coughs with sometimes no shortness of breath? thanks for your help Donna

You should tell your asthma nurse I think, especially if you have had to use your home nebuliser to relieve your symptoms.
