coughing :(

I'm coughing so bad that I'm throwing up...any ideas on what can help it? I've done it twice now, and I think I pulled a muscle in my tummy from coughing and throwing up at the same time.

For a deep chest cough i would try some Vick's vapor rub on your chest area & something that will also soothe the back of your throat too.. laying down i heard can make the phlegm worse so maybe prop up on some pillows??

No suggestions, just know what your going thru. I've got the cough that doesn't really want to leave, it has caused me to nearly throw up a few times, so thankful I was able to keep stuff down. I've ended up on a new inhaler because of it, shortly before finding out I was pregnant.

The robitussin dm will probably help the cough, if it sticks around for you may want to check with your doctor.
