My Husband Had SCA 3wks Ago. I Gave Him CPR

My husband had SCA 3wks ago. I gave him CPR and rescue arrived, and he was revived. He was 'shocked' about 14 times and amazingly he is alive with no damage. He started cardiac rehab and saw the PA this week. Everything appears normal at this time but he has developed a cough..which seems to be going around. I actually had it as well. He's been hoarse. Complains of feeling like bruised ribs when he takes a deep breath. Of course I'm on pins and needles. Is this something to call a dr about or does this sound like what should be expected at this time?
