Thanks for the reply! I am not taking anything other than L-Argenine, which was suggested by a cardiologist. The cough is a mystery. What's really weird is that I cough every time I bend over. (Other times, also.) I can get something off the floor or tie my shoes and invariably cough. Does your cough react similarly? Thanks.

hello john, ,to me it sounds like a left heart failure.. did your cardiologist an echocardiographic investigation? I had the same symptoms in spite of my pacemaker. Due to the extreme high atrium fibrillation (I don't feel them) my heart could not function properly, all 4 heart valves became insuffcient...

Hello @john6stodolka

It has been a while since you last posted about your heart conditions and the persistent coughing. How are you doing with that? Any changes or new medications?

I look forward to hearing from you again.
