Troublesome Cough!

Talking about troublesome coughs! I have these bouts of cough at all time, when it starts, it could go for about 5 minutes and then suddenly stop..this occurs during the day and night time! The cough usually is tickly , and my voice has gone hoarse and my throat hurts..😢😔....Is anyone out there going through similar experience? Was diagnosed with diffuse systemic sclerosis!

I hope we all have a pain free day today🙏🏽 ❤️!

Sounds just like mine. I am putting mine down to reflux /GERD In the early days before and during my lengthy diagnosis everyone seemed to ask me if I had a cough. But I didnt back then now I do. Theres white phlegm as well. I too have the hoarse voice. People ask if I've got a cold.

Have you had a cat scan or chest X-ray? These should be done annually.It’s probably nothing but could be a sign of lung disease in Scleroderma. A non productive cough that is persistent should always be checked out. Ask your rheumatologist for a referral and good luck x
