Re: Deviated Septum - coughing

This is all too familiar. I had a deviated septum. This caused me to have sinus infections for decades. The asthma would come and go. I went to an allergist/asthma doc once. He kicked me out of office after I came out negative for everything. Sure enough a few weeks later I was at the general practitioners for my latest round of antibiotics. He did the test and I definitely had it. I can tell after a cold or bronchitis or sinus surgery (from the post surgical drainage) it acts up. In between illnesses it's undetectable. The pulmonary specialist said it will pretty much go away when all this sinus crap is squared away.

Oh yeah, and a lot of coughing in the morning as the stuff oozes down into the the poor irritated lungs.

Good luck, whatever it is :-)
