betty boop Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Over the last few days I have developed a small tickle cough that I can feel in my chest. It doesn't hurt, just aggrevating. Nothing is coming up with it either. Anyone know much about radiation pneumonitis (spelling??). I thought I'd call my radiation doc tomorrow and see what he suggests for the cough.

Connie B Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Shortness of breath is a biggy with RN. I think I had a dry cough when I had it too, but the SOB was the frist sign and the cough came a little later. For me the cough was nothing compared to the SOB. I got it 2 months after I finished all my treatments. It wasn't fun, but for me, with prednison it cleared right up. It never hurts to always mention changes to your doc. Hope it's nothing and hope your cough goes as fast as it came. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyD Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hi Betty, I can't help with you this one as I never had radiation, but I wanted to let you know I was thinking about you and that I hope you are feeling better soon. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
