Summary
Rain 65310 developed constant chest congestion and a cough producing phlegm five months after a COVID infection. It happened randomly, when lying down, before bed, after waking and when eating. Chest X-rays were normal. Antihistamine pills and sprays, a low-histamine diet, antibiotics, nasal steroids and Singulair had been tried, and the cough disturbed their and their partner's sleep. They had no trouble exercising and were seeing a pulmonologist that month.
