Phone call from doctor says my chest Xray was clear, and that therefore this dry chest cough I've had for weeks is not, in fact, pneumonia. It's just... a cough, I guess. Nothin' to do but wait it out.

I've had one for a few weeks now as well. It's not great!

I'm not great about hydrating at home, but every day at work I down at least 1.2 L of TradMeds Throat Coat; much of my job is just talking. I like their Breathe Easy as well. 🫖

Two decades ago, I had a persistent cough for months. Doctors threw various meds at me (antibiotics, inhalers, etc) just to placate me. Finally, one gave me a chest X-ray to verify nothing was showing as wrong. Within a few days of that, the cough disappeared. Therapeutic X-rays....

Well, it's not bad news, but it's not good news. I hope you get better soon.
