Heya Princess, I know someone will be coming along soon to help you out on that one. Everyone has different symptoms during their quit. It's so weird, I know. I haven't found a post yet where there were some that had a dry cough like what you've described. Are you sure you aren't coming down with something? I know one of the specialist will give you some advice and others will help you out too.
With me, I didn't cough at all and I was expecting to. I mean, I smoked for almost 30 years and by the time I quit, I smoked 2 to 3 packs a day. I was expecting to have a horrible, nasty cough but never did get a cough of any kind. But now, I am having to clear my throat more and that just started.
Until someone else comes along to help you more, make sure that you're drinking a lot of water. I mean so much that you slosh when you walk. ha ha ha It helps to clean out your system and it helps with cravings.
You're doing so great on your quit. Congratulations on getting 5 full days behind you!!
