Hiya
I have had the same thing for about a month now, my cough goes from being chesty to a really annoying tickly one that keeps me from sleeping :mad:
It is getting better but i still feel a tad off colour and it does get me down, so i can only imagine what it must be like for you having it for so long:weep:

Try not to worry, easier said than done i know, maybe go back to your GP and tell them that you can't put up with it anymore and you need answers as to why its not clearing up....it could well be an allergy?!

Hi

I have had a tickly throat since December the first.

It has never went away.

My coughing isn't THAT bad, just seems to be for 10 minutes total per day. I don't really get why it's not went away.

hi

i had a throat infection last february and had a tickly throat cough for about 6 months after i even coughed through most of my wedding ceromony!

anyway i found out that is you've had a bad throat or a cough it leaves a weak spot in your throat which irritates the membrane and you get the awful tickly cough thing!

its gone now it did go eventually but at one point i thought it would never go...

i hope this helps

love
