Further evaluation: Required. May need chest x-ray & echocardiogram to assess for chf. Could also be an ace inhibitor related cough.

Smoking?: Smoking associated with bronchitis vs the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors medication are two good possibilities. Smoking is the worse habit you can have after a stent placement. Increase plague formation exponentially and risk of heart attack.

Bronchitis? Been coughing very frequently for the past 2 weeks. Nose is not stuffy but cough has mucus. Robitussin DM (guaifenesin and dextromethorphan) makes it better. Why the cough?
Cough for almost 2 months now. saw 2 doctors for it about month ago - told lungs sound clear. had a chest xray & CT scan of chest (~2 wks ago)- came back clear w/ "perfect lungs". cough dry w/ very little clear mucus. taking mucinex DM - helps.
