What Treatment Can Be Given For Chronic Cough?
My wife was treated for Lymphoma in the neck area in 1996. She is doing well. She now has a chronic cough that come on at any time and last about 3 minutes. It seems to happen more right before she eats. She doesn t seem to have the problem at night while she is sleeping. She is being treated for acid reflect but it has not helped.

Hello
It looks like that the cough is due to acid reflux and i would like to know what medication she is on! there is a rare possibility of recurrence of the lymphoma, and i would like you to meet your doctor for ruling this out!
Take care
