I've been dealing with a cough for about two months now, and it hasn't gone away. I got an X-ray done, and everything looked fine, and my CBC results came back normal too. But this cough just won't go away. What could be causing it and what should I do next?

I'm a 25-year-old female and have been dealing with asthma since 2005. I've been using Budamate 200 mg and then switched to Formonide Novacart 200 mg since 2012. Now, I'm facing an issue because Formonide Novacart isn't available in the market anymore. I'm wondering what alternative medicine I could use or is it best to see a pulmonologist to discuss other options?

Question

I've been having some breathing issues and lung pain ever since I got the covid vaccine. I tried taking medicine for bronchitis, but it didn't fully help. Then I saw a gastroenterologist and started on medication for acid reflux. After my second vaccine dose, my breathing problems got really bad again. It's been about three months of taking meds now, but I'm still struggling. I've never had covid before. What should I do next?
