i was diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia six weeks ago and was treated with antiobiotics.  I had bad persistant cough. My blood count was normal.  I never did cough up much sputum and it was white and thin.  I am now in the last four weeks still coughing and breathless  and still having chronic cough.  I have acid reflux which I learned can cause chronic cough and breathlessness. I am confused as to what is causing these symptoms.  I have not been taking anything for the acid reflex because I did not associate acid reflux with shortness of breath and chronic cough. the breathlessness has gotten worse since being diagnosed with pheumonia.  Can you give me any advice ?
HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that this may not be bacterial infection, but this could be allergic cough with acid reflux disease, if I would be your doctor then I would treat you with the following medicines, 1) Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day 2) Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day for few weeks, no need to worry about this every thing would be alright soon, have a nice day.
