GERD or stress asthm: It is not unusual for acid reflux to cause cough especially when lying down. A gastroenterologist is you relic as he/she should also evaluate for hiatal hernia. Further imaging is not indicated unless looking for hiatal hernia. Asthma that is exercise or stress induced may occasionally cause similar symptoms. Speak to your doctor.

Cough : Have you tried an antiitussive. That might help. If it doesn't then the next step is up to your treating physician
