HELP

My daughter doctor told me she doesn’t have a cold or rsv or COVID and they don’t know why she’s coughing so much I tried to brush it off as allergies but I have this weird feeling, she wakes up from her sleep coughing and it seems like she may have sleep apnea idk what to do

Ask them to get her in for a sleep study or to get a referral to a pulmonary doctor.

My son is dealing with the same thing. It’s been over a month with a cough. They keep saying it’s croup and there’s nothing really to do for it but croup it contagious so we have to keep taking off work. He will have a cough non stop and here and there he will have green snot and sometimes a low fever. I have no idea but I know it’s definitely not croup cause the first time he had it the cough was really a barking cough now it’s a congested raspy gurgling cough! We’ve tried humidifier, the saline mist, cough medicine, Tylenol, Motrin. While it will suppress the symptoms here and there it doesn’t make it go away. So tired of this germ season I think there’s something going around that they have no idea what it is

@Tia Channing have you asked them to do a chest xray to rule out pneumonia?
