Hi,
For about 6 years I've had a chronic cough... I cough every few minutes because it feels like my lungs are congested. It's even worse when I lie down. I had tests (x-rays, pulminary function etc) when it first started and apparently there was no obvious problem. I also feel short of breath a lot of the time... and feel like I need to cough to clear my lungs. My chest feels tight and heavy and I'm always aware of the discomfort. It's driving me crazy! I worry about tumours, pneumonia etc.
Anybody out there have similar problems or information?
Thanks so much for your help!
