kc88 @kc88 The only thing acupuncture helped me with was relaxation. It wasn't until I worked to control reflux/gerd/heartburn that my cough diminished. That and near complete lung clearance each session. Having said that, sometimes I'm troubled a bit by nighttime coughing and I think it's because during my 2nd clearance session I am bit lazier! Coughing is not a problem for me during the day. It varies from person to person with disease state. I have bronchiectasis and asthma, and am working hard to limit it to those 2 things.
