Anyone have "cough variant" asthma? Vocal cord dysfunction?
Anyone else on the forum with cough variant asthma? How about vocal cord dysfunction or the two together?
I have struggled with cough variant asthma for many years. Recently I was also diagnosed with vocal cord dysfunction as well--specifically irritable larynx syndrome. I've had voice therapy, but I'm interested in other ways people are coping with the combination.

Neilmed came with packets and instructions and you can also Googleit, but basically I sterilized the bottle by boiling it, used sterile water and mixed in 1 packet, shook gently and followed the instructions. It helps clear the sinuses. You have to make sure everything is sterile- you can buy sterile distilled water or boil filtered water for 5 minutes I think. You don’t want to use plain tap water. When I was in bad shape I’d use it 4-5 times a day. If I feel fine I don’t use it. Always a good idea to check with your doctor.
