I am a 53 year old female. I have had a cough....sometimes dry, but mostly productive....for going on 9 weeks. Wheezing often accompanies the cough and seems to be worse upon inhaling. I have been to the doctor 3 times during this period. I have had 3 rounds of antibiotics (Ceftin, Amoxicillin, and Levoquin), a cortisone shot and 5 days of oral prednisone. I was given an x-ray, as pneumonia was suspected, but it came back negative. I was also give an inhaler. I will occasionally have a day when the cough/wheezing seem to be much better, but then it just comes back the next day. I am going to make an appointment with a pulmonary specialist, per the recommendation of my doctor. However, I m just at a point where I m confused as to what s going on and what the possible problem could be. I m actually getting very worried.....and obviously, tired of coughing!! Any insight at all?
