It could be something seasonal seeing that it's spring/approaching summer by you now. So it could be allergy related. I would go to a professional and check it out. It usually can be treated (if it is an allergy) with an antihistamine and be gone quite quickly.

Cant say much more really then whats already been posted. But i do think you should consult your doctor is you already havnt done so. If getting down to him/her is a problem, then im sure there is a number he/she has to contact.

7weeks is a long time to have a cough. Do you smoke at all?

Hope you feel better soon :)
 
thanks for the tips all I'll see a doctor this Friday :), cuz tomorrow it's my birthday ::p:
@Hottie: No don't smoke ;), but my parents do in the same house.. So could be one of the reasons .. hard to get rid off the cold...

Hello Saskia,

Well as many above me said go see a doctor:) You could have spring allergy also or just maybe u are asthmatic and don't know about it? Do u have cat or dog? Also can be allergy on hair of those sweet monsters. Hun just go make tests for different types of allergies like hair of animals,grass,smoke etc.
this may help u find out what's that if wouldn't be your coughing stopping and u will continue. Is good to know if u are allergic on something coz later u don't have worries what could be with u. Take care about your self!

if you can, try to find the vitamin/herb pill echinacea (pronounced eck-eh-na-shya, i think, lol) in the vitamin section at the drug store.. it reeeally helps your strengthen your immune system, i worked at a daycare and was always getting a cold when the kids got sick, so i got some echinacea and it kept me from breaking down and getting sick all the time!

thanks for the tip, katie, I never heard of echinacea, i'll take a look at it, since i don't like to be sick, I like to keep my health the good way :)
