Fearsome Thoughts

For the past 3 or 4 weeks, i have been having this dry cough. I have bouts of this kind of cough in the past and i'm supposed to have a post-nasal drip something which kind of choked me so i end up coughing non-stop until it's cleared.  Almost always, my face and eyes turned red and teary and i get this wheezing type of breathing.  The coughing gets worse that my right side just below the ribcage becomes painful.  When i took co-aleva and sinecod forte, the cough disappear only to return about 2-3 days after and i get an itchy throat that makes me want to cough all the time.

Searching about itchy throat cough on the internet, showed me all kinds of possibilities and until i end up researching long term use of Pantoprazole which supposedly is not good for the kidney and how damaged throat from GERD is a pre-cursor of cancer.  This is why i should not be reading these kinds of things on the internet.  On one hand it makes me aware of the risks but on the other hand, i get anxious. 

Dear God, help me.
