Aortic valve & CABG
My husband had open heart surgery for replacement of the aortic valve and CABG 4 weeks ago. He has developed a cough that happens when he is taking if he issitting/standing but not when he is lying down. Cough meds do not alleviate the cough. Has anyone else had this problem? Chest x-rays are clear.
Thanks for the comment. The Dr. has taken my husband off all meds. His cough is just about gone now. Hopefully it will be completly gone in a day or two when the meds are out of his system.
