What Can Cause Severe Cough Followed By Nausea And Urinary Leakage?
I have a severe cough, that brings up my food and makes me pee on myself. The fits occur every 35-45 min. I was treated for Gerd, w/ a PPI. Neither a ppi nor an otc antacid do any good. I’m unable to sleep because of these frequent disturbances and I have to wear a diaper. I’m a singer, but have not been able to perform with this condition. And I’m not old enough to need diapers. Any idea what I’m dealing with? My dr insists that it’s Gerd.
