I am not saying you have this issue, but I remember seeing a woman on Medical Diagnosis that kept having recurring sickness like this and then had a procedure done and found out she had mold growing in her the lower part of her lungs. They lived in a condo or townhouse and one of the joining units had mold problems.

i heard there is certain virus causing cough for a month or loner. nothing can be done with viruses. prhps stop taking antibiotics for a virus, they make matters worse. eventually goes away, but i know some elderly folks that vahe had recurring cough for over two months now...over the counter cough suppresant for niight relef. but that's it, doctors say some people more seceptible to these viruses. rest, sleep well and eat healthy...good luck

i heard that some viral infections will not go away. some people more apt to getting them and cause cough for months. do not take antibiotics since it only makes matters worse. i guess over the counter cough suppresant should help at night. aGood luck!

 

I have the same thing and no one can tell me what it is or how to get rid of it. Now they say maybe Mono

I had this problem too> went to a few doctors no one could help. Eventually went to a homeopath who sent me for some allergy tests< and i found out i had a wheat allergy.

Hi There, I hear where you are coming from. I went into hospital about a month ago and was on heavy antibiotics. I left with a dry cough from airconditioning and a sore dry throat also being a hot summer didn't help. After sucking lozenges ,gargling apple cider vinegar,drinking sage and manuka honey tea for about a week my sore throat still stayed the same. I was beginning to worry until my next door neighbour said to sip a small amount of Mylanta every couple of hours. Felt relief instantly and 3 days later back to normal. Anything is worth a try !

I wish all of you the best and if anyone can help me then i'd be eternally grateful.  I have had tonsilitis, laryngitis, bronchitis, and strep lots of times, but nothing compares to this agony.  My throat isnt sore. It itches.  I mean itches like crazy.  Maybe athletes foot is the closest thing I can compare it to.  Been going on for about four weeks now.  I force myself to cough to aleve the itching.  Not coughing anything up but I can feel the congestion in my lungs when I inhale.  I have no problems breathing however.  Ive resorted to using qtips and stuff to scratch.  I know, I know, thats a terrible idea but it helps somewhat..Its so bad ive lost my job, )as a telemarketer go figure) My eyes water and I even have some bladder control issues.  I am in agony and it is ruining my life.  I would prefer strep throat any day.  So sorry for rambling but I need help.  Ive tried antibiotics and the usual otc cough stuff, hot tea, honey.  Doc says its nothing.  Ill be going for a second opinion but in the meantime any input would be awesome.  Thanks and best of luck to all.

Try using chloraseptic spray or lozonges to numb your throat.

I also had a cough that went on and on. I was finally diagnosed with whooping cough, sometimes called the 100 day cough. I had been sick 3 months.

 

I went to the doctors and went through a round of anti biotics. The congestion is about 80% gone, but the cough is still there and I am tired all the time. Like really worn down tired. Although I tested negative for strep, my throat is sore all the time.
This has been going on for two months now. I am going to go back in for blood work.

I'm having the same problem as you. I actually am 10 and had this for at least 2 weeks and it's not wearing off. I tried taking medicine which didn't help, but when I gurgled salt water, it helped probably 25%. So I prefer you try gurgling salt water for 5-6 seconds and keep doing for at least 6 times. I hope this has helped you! (I still have it. My mom is a nurse and swabbed my throat... I found out I only have a little bit of strep throat. One problem is that there's blood on top of my... I don't know what it's called!)
