Severe cough

Posted , 2 users are following.

Whenever sugar level increases and reaches to some extent cough starts. I am not diabetic. I found this through experience. Only azythromycin 500 for 3 days solves my problem. But till then I suffer lot of discomfort. No physician could solve my problem as they are not interested to slaughter golden egg laying hen. I revealed this to a general practitioner and vow. He prescribed me montilucast 10 mg for a month. I started drinking ice chilled water which I could not for years. I take the medicine for a month every six months.

Now , I want to know what are the basic parameters. Since I am not a diabetic how and where sugar attacks. Is there a permanent solution to this ?

    Hi ,I'm on montelukast ive been on it now for 3 months and I believe it will be all year round for me ,but I'm now trying taking it in the mornings instead of at night as I was having trouble sleeping ,,,,,,,now then as for the sugar problem ? I am not a big lover of sweets or toffees ,,,I'm more of a chocolate person ,but  one of my hubby's Christmas gifts was a jar of boiled sweets ,I put some in a dish on the coffee table ,,,,,too close to me I'm afraid ,,,and once you have one you want another and another etc etc ,,,,but then I did notice that not long after eating them I was coughing ,,and coughing ,,so no more sweets for me ,I hadn't noticed the connection between the sweets and cough until you've pointed it out , , so thankyou ,

      If you read on the leaflet in each put of tablets and read side effects ( which I don't read straight away ) it does say could cause sleeplessness ,,,,and palpitations ,and hyperactivity ,,,,etc etc ,after speaking to my consultant he said to try taking it in a morning ,
