coughing and anxiety

I have full bunch of different anxiety symptoms. Sometimes, think everything happened to me.
However, In last few days I started with coughing, actually it is more like I want to cough out something. I am so sick and tired of all those doctor's examinations, tests...cannt go for coughing again....
Has anybody had this as anxiety symptom? PLs, someone:))))

I have a friend and when she gets really bad anxiety she starts coughing and gaging and her eyes water, it is really weird but it does happen.

I have this, but i'm prescribed these medicines. So i'm not really sure if it is my anxiety, but i've been coughing up Phlegm for about a month now.

I have a similar problem. I get episodes where I start coughing and feel theres something in my throat that I can't get out. Sometimes its really bad and I feel like I'm almost choking. I've realized it is directly related to my anxiety. The more I cough the worse I worry about it and it doesn't go away. However as soon as I'm able to distract myself and relax the cough stops. I find that drinking something hot helps too.
