Has anyone else experienced really bad morning coughing with CF?
For me, the coughing is worst during the first 5–7 hours after waking up, then it mostly stops at night and I feel much better. I’ve also noticed it gets significantly worse after eating breakfast. Sometimes I cough so hard after breakfast that I end up vomiting.
Because of that, I started delaying my first meal by 2–3 hours after waking up, and surprisingly the intense morning coughing became much less severe.
Has anyone else noticed something similar? Did delaying your first meal help you too?
