Going out on a limb here but coughing for months my first thought would be mold. Not sure why they didn't suggest that to you.

It wasn't coughing for months though. It started with a runny nose. Then I got a cough (coincided with the baby being born and waking up). I took cough suppressors for about 1.5 weeks. Then I had general sinus aches and the cough stopped. Then i had body aches. Then I had a runny nose and cought again, until finally it became general malaise until it finally dissipated.

I count the 'end' of the infection as the point in time at which I was able to do my standard gym routine in full again.
