I’ve the exact same problem and after everything my ENT consultant said there was nothing they could offer me and suggested I purchase a sinus wash kit from Boots! Now I’ve read what Professor Denton says I’m going to mention it to my scleroderma consultant next time I see her. Good luck and please post if you find a solution? Now it’s become part of my everyday life and it’s awful 😞.

You are right, seems nothing can be done.

I am now up at 2:00am and just broke down crying because my cough is keeping me up.

So tired.

It came out of nowhere about a month ago.

I feel thin mucus that I can « pull » down my throat.

I don’t mind during the day but this cough keep me up.

Did research on line : took cough syrup, bought a humidifier, raise my bed, take the same antihistamine i have been taking for years anyway. Nothing.

Last week, Saw an ENT who put some type of numbing spray in my nose. (To this day my nose feel raw and now drip constantly) like i needed anyone to make this worse. Unreal....

She says she sees nothing meanwhile i could feel some thin mucus in my throat.

She thinks it’s GERD. I am convinced it’s not. Took the anti acid meds she prescribed : NOTHING.

I pray the cough goes away on its own. So sad.

Please any advice.
