What Causes Cough And Rapid Heart Beats?
I have a persistent cough and wake up with numness in my legs and arms. I am dibetic and havenuropothy in my legs and feet. This cough started when took a perscibed med fot the nuropothy. After a week the cough just got worse each day. I stopped taking it and the cough went away immediately. Then I was in a very stressful situation a couple of days ago and this nagging cough started again and so did my racing heart in the night . I have been taking an aspirine but it does not stop the cough or rapid heart rate.
