Help His Cough Won't Go Away!

I've had this cough for like 3 weeks now. I've had it since I got back from Europe. My pops is a doctor so he got me on like 3 antibiotics. I took the z-pak and it did nothing. I then took cephafil and it didn't do anything. Now i'm on this Methodylysne crap which is a anti-inflammatory and it's not doing much. I also went to the hospital and got a cortisone shot in the hip and he took a chest x-ray. I don't have Tuberculosis, but they said it's probably bronchitis. I'm also taking robitissum and cough drops, but these aren't really helping either. Still no use. He's going to take me to a lung specialist next week if it doesn't get any better. Could it possibly be from the steroids i'm taking? I'm getting a little worried. However I was coughing before I started my cycle so I don't know if this is the cause? Anyone ever had a cough this bad? I'm not sick by the way and when I cough there's no mucus. It's more of a dry cough.

what are you taking? I predict this is probably something the lung specialist is going to have to sort out for you. You sleep with any, well, less than clean girls in europe? although I'm not sure that's even a symptom in much so prolly to the dr. for the answer. let us know

Right now i'm finishing up this anti-inflammatory medication. It's like 5 days of pills. I'm also taking clarinex and robitussum. I'm also running test prop cycle 75 mg ed with 500 eq a week. It's subsiding just a little bit, but it goes in spurts where I cough like crazy to the point where I gag and sometimes throw up. I strapped up while I was in Europe, but I was with 6 or 7 girls total. This couldn't possibly be it could it? Although I started coughing when I got back so I must have caught something over there just don't know what.

yeah I doubt it's an std or anything I think I spoke too soon on that one. I'm really at a loss man, I highly doubt its the steroids , and if you've gone through 3 antibiotics then it's probably not bacterial. Unless you have those super bacteria (but also doubt that) wish I could help you.

are you coughing up anything? or is it just dry coughing

it's dry coughing, but sometimes it gets so bad that I gag. I'm running out of options, but my dad told me the next step was to up the cortizone shots.
