Coughing? Is it reflux or just a cough?



Recommended Posts

About ten days my allergies started acting up. First my eyes were itchy and watery and then my head got stuffed up. Then I got a horrible cough and lost my voice completely.

When I got my fill last week the doc warned me that a cough can be a sign of reflux but I told him I've been sick with my allergies so he said okay just keep an eye on it.

My voice is back and I'm feeling better but I still have a slight cough here and there. It feels like the normal cough I would have with my allergies but if you had reflux from your band being too tight wouldn't you have other problems besides a mild cough?

Edited to add: yesterday I had a stuck episode and I threw up a little. For about 2 hours after I threw up I did have acid reflux. I could feel the acid. I assumed that's normal but is it?

No answers, but I have been having very bad reflux and the coughing/choking has me up all night. I had an unfill in November and it was better, but I imagine when I go see doc next week I will have more unfill...Keep an eye on it

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
