Hello! Welcome to the community.
As Brandon has mentioned, patient ambassadors are available to speak with you if you are interested.
There are many different reasons/ different diagnoses for coughing. Coughing can be due to a current infection, sinus issues, acid reflux issues etc. What medications are you currently taking?
