I started getting a cold last week, when the weather went from 75 and sunny to 50's and dreary. It started out with the typical stuff - sore throat, small cough, lost a little of my voice. About 3 days later, it started going away, and I thought that was it. Well, it's been a week since then, and I've still got the cough. I have tried everything. It always gets worse when we go to bed at night, and I either wind up staying up another 1/2 hour to 45 min trying to stop, or wake up later for the same time period doing nothing but coughing. Now, this is bad enough on it's own, but I'm only getting about 5 hours of sleep because of it, and that is just not enough for me. I wind up going to bed around 1 a.m. when I have to get up at 6. I cannot even lay down for a nap, because by the time I stop coughing, it's time to get back up. I've done everything I can think of to get this to go away, with no avail....Any suggestions??? I would really appreciate any help! Thank you...
