Copd And Coughing Posted: 10-29-05 11:57am
I am glad that such a forum exists. When
new to a disease like copd one could feel
totally disoriented.
My father learnt that he has copd about 2
months and a half ago, at 64 years old.
He's been coughing almost every day since
then, sometimes during the night.
He has to wake up at 4 am (during the
night)
to inhale albuterol which he is using four
times a day.
Will the coughing stop or it will be
present every day, every month ? Is it
normal ?
He took three prescriptions until now of
antibiotics, each for five days, I am
wonder if it would be better to take for
one week or 10 days.
