[|Human|] Ive been coughing for 5 weeks straight Ive been to the doctor had an xray done on my lungs everythings ok says the doctor but its been 2 wks iv been coughing at night wake up gasping for air nothing the doctor has prescriped has helped. what should I do I have had sleepless nights?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Severe coughing in night with breathlessness is seen in 1. CCF (congestive cardiac failure)2. Bronchitis. So get done ECG and 2d echo to rule out CCF. Get done PFT (pulmonary function test) to rule out bronchitis. If both are normal, then mostly you will have anxiety and related symptoms. So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright.
