PostNasal Drip

Forums
Stage IV NSCLC

My husband has been having severe post nasal drip leading to violent coughing and occasional vomiting for one month now.  He is on carboplatin and alipmta.   His team seems baffled by it.  He will have gurgling, coughing, runny nose and then it will stop and he feels dry and no symptoms but then it happens again about every four hours.  CT has ruled out sinus problem and pneumonia.   Looking for help to diagnose and treat.  Looking for answers if this is chemo and/or caused.  Thank you.
