Same here. No beer for a week and cough is loads worse than when I started on the meds. 3 weeks now and I'm slowly just starting to beat it. Plenty fluids, paracetamol and try a bit of rest if you can. All the best mate!
Yeah..lots of odd crackling and fizzing noises in the chest cavity but when you cough, very little moves. Cough medicines totally ineffective. Only thing that worked for me was standing in the hot shower and breathing in the steam..
