Hi,
If your cough is due to GERD and if you dont find relief with PPI (Pantecta), then evaluation has to be done with 24 hours pH monitoring test.
Consult a gastroenterologist for this test.

HI
I did consulted an ENT specialist ,put a tube through my nose and into my stomach.. Told me it was acid reflux that is causing my  coughing with mucus.. It has lessen down a great deal, but some mornings am coughing non stop. Is there something I can do without medication to stop this excessive amount of coughing?
