Had this cough since Saturday. Every time I lie down it feels like I'm drowning in my own phlegm. I've tried hot showers, cold showers, increasing my inhaler dose, steam inhalation and standing outside. Nothing works. Are there any cough medication with actual medicine in? Because they all seen to be a slightly fancier version of honey and lemon. I am so tired and I have 5 dc so can't afford to be ill.
