I Have Had A Chronic Cough For Several Years Now.

I have had a chronic cough for several years now. It was a dry hacking cough where my throat would go very dry. As of Aug 29, 2015 it changed to a wet flem filled cough. Coughing attacks were all day and sometimes to the point of not being able to breath with congestion and spitting up flem continuously. I was put on predisone and antibiotics for 2 months of which the last 3 weeks were cough and congestion free. I finished both predisone and antibiotics last week and I feel the symptoms coming back slowly. right now cough is periodic especially at night and running nose with no congestion.
