Phrenic Nerve damage and paralyzed diaphragm: Anyone else have this?

I had open heart 21 years ago. A cough started after that. I spent 10 years with a pulmonologist who would not listen. I found another pulmonologist who informed me about phrenic nerve
The cough is invasive and intense. Many times a day. It hurts and causes concern in others. Have talked with bot Mayo and Cleveland Clinic. They want me to see a pulmonologist there. They can't help. Is there anyone who specializes in phrenic nerve?

Welcome to @mistekat. I'm not sure I understand. Both Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic recommended to see a pulmonologist at their respective clinics or suggested you see someone local to you? Can you explain further?
