Alright. First you didn't let us know the what the cough is like. Whether you cough out anything and I'd you do what's the nature of what you cough out.

You didn't let us know the kind of drugs you have been on because drugs are specific to the kind of cough.

Are there other symptoms that you feel? Any night fevers for instance and do you think you have lost weight?

Have you tried to do chest xrays and TB testing?

Are you hypertensive and on some kind of hypertensive drugs? Some hypertensive drugs can cause you to cough.

It could also be related to allergies. That's why your doctors also must review your medication history.

However it is, get well soon.

Most naija hospital cannot diagnose cancer, that is why the test is coming out negative

As usual the first few statements on this forum turn out to be wrong.

Follow the advice of pacificman, georgeceekay or lexusgs430. In addition get a second or third opinion from a respiratory physician or cardiologist.
If you have been coughing for four years and you are not yet dead, you are unlikely to have tuberculosis, cancer or heart disease. There is hope. Environmental allergies, drug adverse effects , post nasal drip or mild COPD are my first thoughts.

Please do not let anybody frightened you with the cancer stuff. What kills faster is fear and emotional instability. It is a good thing that you sleep well and you don't cough out blood.
Have you done culture of the phlegm that comes out with your cough? What is your work environment like? Does it occurs even when you sleep during the day?
You may need to see a specialist doctor. But I will also advise you to try holistic detoxification and supervised fasting.

This is a pure TB case. Go to The Presbyterian Joint Hospital in Uburu, Ohaozara LGA Ebonyi state, they specialise in such cases. And they partner with many foreign bodies and government which makes most of the drugs free and highly subsidised in some cases. They have handled a lot of more serious cases.

I'm almost 98% certain it's lymphoma with the lungs lymph nodes affected.

And you are aware that swelling in the area of the lymph nodes is a common symptom of cancer that starts in the lymphatic system, such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma.

Right or wrong?

I have not said it is cancer, I just dropped a few possibilities. Difficult to examine a patient abstractly via nairaland.....

Sometimes the solution to a seemingly big problem is simple. I once had cough for more than 8 years,went to specialist hospital and private hospitals was given injections and drugs ,took native herbs ,it will go and come back. It took just 10 mins with a pharmacist to get the right syrup that finally helped me.
Its not about taking drugs but taking the right one for a particular ailment.

Forget the Shiloh and miracle centers. It's a medical condition that can be cured if you can find a good hospital but it's a pity that many of our doctors that schooled here aren't good enough.
If it was lung cancer like many suggested, you would have been on your deathbed being that it's been 4whole years without Chemo or Radiotherapy. I wish you luck in finding a good doc. Visit LASUTH or better still, leave the country like Buhari did when he had common ear infection
Do you see traces of blood when you cough?

Do you smoke? Have you smoked previously? Have you had a sleep study conducted? How do you know you don't cough in your sleep? Have you changed your environment, in all the times of this coughing periods?

Have you been tested for asthma? It could also be acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease? If you don't smoke or never smoked before, you could have been exposed to passive smoke, leading to chronic bronchitis or other forms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and it might also be post nasal drip...... Or a host of other respiratory based illness..

Coughing is usually caused due to airway irritation or accumulated secretions.

Good evening. Please I need help, I have being coughing for up to four years now and it isn't giving any sign that it will go any time some.

I have done all tests that could reveal what the problem is but till date, I haven't gotten any solution. The cough started January 4, 2015 and till now, it hasn't gone. I have also done HIV test inclusive of the tests I carried out and it's negative.

I have used all drugs including traditional drugs. All recommended drugs I have used but no cure. My doctors are tired of me because 80% of my visit to the hospital is because of cough. I have being embarrassed severally due to this cough.

The only funny thing about this cough is that when I sleep at night, I will never cough throughout the night until I wake up in the morning. This has been the case for the past 4 years. Sometimes, after coughing for so long and I get tired, I just go to sleep and I will be fine. But once I wake up, it starts again.

Please anyone with valuable information on how I can get cure for this cough. I'm fed-up coughing for 4 years and still ongoing.

Please mod, help me push this to the front page. This is getting out of hand for me.
Have you done gene expert? There are some tuberclosis that are resistance to most refampicin or have you done fnab( fine needle aspiration biopsy)? To accertain if isnt a pulmonary tuberclosis? Though the procedure is tedious and capital intensive. But gene expert is free in most teach hospital

Re: Help!!! Coughing For Up To Four Years Now by patrick45(m): 11:18am On Dec 05, 2018
This could be an allergic reaction to even some drugs that you might be using for treatment of another ailment. My mum coughed for close to 3 years, we went to Me Cure at Oshodi, we went for tuberculosis tests and HIV Hepatitis B, you name it. Until she went to one pharmacy shop and the in-house pharmacists just asked her if she had any other condition that she is treating at the moment, and she replied that she has been taking drugs for her heart condition. she mentioned all the drugs that she has been taking all the 3 years and he just spotted out one of them and the reason for her cough. as soon as she went back to the hospital and complained they gave a substitute for that drug and that was the END of the 3 years curse of cough.

So if you have any ailment that is being treated or has been treated for the last 4 years, please have your doctors look at the drug regimen to see if you react to any of them.

It is well with you in the name of Jesus, Cancer is not your portion. Amen

What tests have you had done?
If it worsens at night especially if you lie down you might need to rule of the following
* postnasal drip.
* asthma, especially cough-variant asthma, which causes a cough as the main symptom especially at night
* acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
* Chronic bronchitis or other forms chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

If that should be the case, go to the nearby laboratory for TB test. Test and treatment are usually free in most primary health centers across the country.
