I had strep diagnosed 4ds ago and now have am coughing that only codeine can manage. i've been sick with cold since october and can't shake it. ?

Be patient : I suggest you finish the treatment for the strep, then start to boost your immune system naturally - regular and good nutrition, no smoking, good sleep nightly, regular exercise, daily vitamin supplement, possible probiotic supplements if you think they can help. Good luck !
