Check with your doc: You may have chronic bronchitis or bronchiectasis. Check with pulmonologist.

Need diagnosis...: If you are describing a cough productive of mucous that has been present for 5 years, you need to see a doctor for evaluation, likely including pulmonary function testing, in order to diagnose the etiology of this cough. Possibilities include bronchospasm from any cause, gerd, post-nasal drip or a combination of factors. There are effective treatments once the diagnosis has been made. Good luck!
