Tickle in throat and cough for months..?

I've been coughing for 2 months and still going. It's almost only at rest, not when I speak or exercise. IT feels like a tickle, most of the time like it's from the deep parts of the troat. Clearing my throat doesn't work, only coughing.
It's driving me crazy. Some clear mucus does come up, sometimes a bit of yellow too, and sometimes nothing.

No other symptoms. No breathlessness, no blood..

Have been to my GP, waiting for the results of a mucus sample.

What could it be..? I've previously had trobles with acid relux, so I've started taking acid inhibitors. No effect yet.
