Anyone similar ???

I had a similar cough and pain and I was fast tracked by my GP to a respiratory consultant where I had high X-ray and CT scan. Reassuring to know nothing found but it was discovered that I had a small hiatus hernia and acid reflux which does cause your symptoms!

Any resolution for you ???

Yes - put on Proton Pump Inhibitors to reduce acid - trial and error resulted in me being on Pantoprazole now and a bit more care on my eating habits - not stuffing myself! Great now
