    I have this. I experienced about 2 solid months of coughing. No phlegm, just a dry, hard, hacking, nonproductive cough. Whenever I went to the ER, the spirometry and peak flow tests would be normal which would completely confuse the medical students, who kept giving me Robitussin, and codeine cough syrups.
    Drinking them like water, I continued to cough until I had to support myself on a wall or chair to have enough strength TO cough.

      Yes! It is extremely difficult to explain it to medics what it is. I get 'but you're not wheezing' "You're speaking ok." "You don't have asthma, its asthma like.'" As I cough my lungs up and go red in the face. I have been denied treatment because ""it's not asthma you just have a cough.'

      That's good to hear! My cough-variant asthma diagnosis process was very similar to yours. I coughed for two months straight (non-productive, no wheezing). We initially treated it with OTC medications. They never worked. Eventually we went to my (then) pediatrician) and he diagnosed cough-variant asthma.
      My mother and sister both have asthma as well, but they both have the classic type. I was dxed age 18, and they were dxed in their teens.

    My chronic cough (more than 20 years) got so severe nothing worked. A pulmonologist finally diagnosed me as having cough-variant asthma (cough is my only asthma symptom). Spiriva works! With an albuterol inhaler if needed and omeprazole 40 mg at bedtime. Not saying this will work for everyone but it helped me.

  • @jayydee72
    @jayydee72 17 років тому +42

    (MY story, continued) Only after tearing an abdominal muscle did the ER finally take me seriously and give me a steroid. The steroid put an immediate end to the coughing. If I had not been so persistent, I know that I would have died from this. I refused to pay the bill they sent me and I let them know why. I now have an allergy dr who takes me seriously and keeps me in good health. I'll sing like a bird on this topic if it keeps others from suffering like I did.

    Thank you so much for this information for our nursing students! I was a swimmer who had "bronchitis" 3 times a year with only cough. I used to drink codeine cough medicine from the bottle before racing! This went on for over 15 years before a very sharp doctor diagnosed it in the late 1990's.
    The big problem with this type of asthma is the paramedics and ER staff may not recognize the seriousness of the airway problem in acute exacerbation.

  • @usafjulz

    Thank you so much for this. I've had a "chronic cough" since i was little, but my parents never knew how to treat it b/c the doctors didnt know. When i was 16 i was diagnosed w/mild asthma; then it was a mis-diagnosis b/c it was a "narrowing of bronchular tubes". But when i went to bmt i had a lot of trouble & they ultimately sent me home. Watching this, it sounds like EXACTLY what i have which is sad b/c even specialists couldnt tell me that. I think they used a peak flow monitor to test me.

    SgtGumbo: thank goodness you are here to enlighten UA-cam with your charming comments and videos. perhaps you should take your own advice if you 'almost die' a lot and yet are 'not forced' to live with asthma. you missed the point of my comment, which was about quality of life.
    ps. look up the word 'bicker', it's -not- synonamous with complain, and in fact applies to your comment and not mine. have a great day and stay in school!

My cough has been ongoing for nearly 4 years, though i am on prescription Omeprazole for Heartburn as well as Flonase for post nasal drip. Yet, i still cough. Update: my spirometry test was normal but I do have cough variant asthma.

      I have. I'm not sure this will present in everyone with cough variant asthma. But I know that when I have an attack there is very light crackling in the upper lungs and diminished breath sounds in the bottoms. My RT said "You're not using your bottoms." Maybe have the docs and RT check that next time you go in with an attack.

  • @shadeassassin9248
    @shadeassassin9248 2 роки тому +1

    People with cough variant asthma have just as much trouble breathing as those with typical symptoms of wheezing.
    Coughing can over-exasperate inflamed lungs and air pathways (trachea) by which asthma itself is extensively most commonly triggered by viral infections; leading to injudicious actions of more severe chest tightness and even dilapidated lungs most commonly linked to COPD.
    However, the biggest issue with this disorder is the perplexity of its' lack of awareness.
    EMTs and even Triage nurses fail to recognize the symptoms of CVS, and dismiss it as an allergy which respectively prevents effective care.
    People with CVS have been denied effective care including but not limited to Corticosteroid medicines (anti-inflammatory steroids) such as nebulizer treatments and prednisone.
    Due to this negligence, those with symptoms of CVS are considered nugatory out of negligible awareness of this chronic disorder.
    This chronic asthmatic symptom is also an underlying condition that causes bleeding of the trachea, which is more common with those with CVS due to chronic coughing by which further irritation leads to more inflammation.
    Dryness is moreso stimulated in the trachea by synthesis of Retrocausality (cause and effect reversed).
    *It is important to note that all doctors are NOT Experts in any specific medical professions that they are not educated and trained for.
    According to immunologists at the Mayo Clinic of allergies and asthma "Though allergic asthma is very common, there are other types of asthma with different kinds of triggers. For some people, asthma can be triggered by exercise, infections, cold air, gastroesophageal reflux disease or stress. Many people have more than one kind of asthma trigger."
    Are asthma and allergies the same thing?
    The answer is NO, absolutely not.
    Allergies are caused when the immune system becomes hypersensitive to an allergen, causing the immune system to act as if it was under threat. Asthma is a respiratory disorder that restricts the airways and makes it difficult to breathe.
    Asthma triggered by environmental factors like pet dander, pollutants, mold, anything edible by human consumption may be congruent against your lifestyle.. However (my opinion)If your asthma is caused by other factors like stress, exercise or is worsen by other respiratory illnesses, then a PULMONOGOLIST may be a better fit.
