Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM .
Read and reviewed your query and health concerns.
IN the given situation of Yours,You seem to suffer from-Chronic Productive Cough-from Bronchiectasis.The greenish sputum is indicative of bronchectasis and the history of copious secretions for 4 mths chronicity, leads one investigate case with Chest Physician.
Other causes like TB brochitis with pneumonia, necrotic tumour in lungs need to be ruled out by CT Chest and flexible bronchoscopy.
This plan would reduce your dilemma from chronic copious cough.
Hope this would help you to plan further of this complex illness of yours.
