Something I learned last year is upset signals from the bowels can bring on coughing fits. The same segments of the nervous system that tear gas connects to can get triggered. If you weren't coughing "stuff" but just had irresistible coughing urges the bowels having an upset can do that.
Any other allergen, from detergent perfume, to whatever, adds to the signal.

Thank goodness the throwing up and bathroom visit stopped. That took a lot out of me. I forced myself to drink due to dehydration from losing fluid. Shouldn't have done that now I am bloated. If I feel like this again tomorrow, I will have to drive my fat ass to the doc.
