Cough: This is normal. Your lungs are healing during the time your not smoking and trying to get out all the tar you have exposed your lungs over the duration of smoking.

See a doctor!!!!: If your question is, "What should I do?" the answer is "Please see your doctor again." In addition to physical examination, you need, at the very least, a chest x-ray. Even if you didn't smoke, the symptoms you describe and the length of time you've had them really concern me. Please get help!
