Yes it is common in PBC to tend to get a little more winded than others, or more so than we did at one point. I can't remember right off the top of my head the reasoning so if there are any suggestion that would be great 👍

One of the medications I am on can give a dry cough. I think it's the immunosuppressant. I don't know if that describes your cough but it does mine!
