“The morbidity, cost, and impact of somatoform (functional) pediatric respiratory syndromes are far more impactful than that experienced by most of our severe asthmatics and CF patients. These conditions are NOT trivial, ‘just in your head’ conditions. A confident diagnostic approach and an optimistic therapeutic regimen are critically important.” - Dr. George Mallory, MD, Pediatrics-Pulmonary, Baylor College of Medicine Houston, TX, International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation
"Awesome! ... I believed this would just be some sort of scam, then to learn that children [and adults] were treated just by watching a video sounded ridiculous ..." & "I left the room, 30 minutes later he stopped coughing." - Dad from Melbourne, Australia HERE
"I'm delighted your son responded to our video demonstrating suggestion therapy. HERE is my presentation at the National Children's Hospital in Washington D.C." - Dr. Miles Weinberger, MD.
Update: Special Post Covid-19-Associated Acute & Chronic Habit Cough Information
Post COVID-19 and Long COVID cough cure update: Dr. Weinberger has received numerous unsolicited, verified reports of post, & long COVID-19 cough cure success utilizing his procedure. - Please report any post-viral, COVID-19 & Long COVID cough cures utilizing Dr. Weinberger's submission form HERE.

Cough is one of the most common presenting symptoms of COVID-19, along with fever and loss of taste and smell. Cough can persist for weeks or months after SARS-CoV-2 infection, often accompanied by chronic fatigue, cognitive impairment, dyspnoea, or pain—a collection of long-term effects referred to as the post-COVID syndrome or long COVID." & "Many reports have now described post-COVID symptoms and show that cough can persist for weeks and months after SARS-CoV-2 infection in some patients, with differing severity of acute symptoms." - Confronting COVID-19-associated cough and the post-COVID syndrome - from The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
"The initial cause of the Habit Cough is commonly symptoms consistent with a viral respiratory infection. When the symptoms caused in children [and adults] were initiated from Covid-19, the subsequent Habit Cough did not appear to differ from that initiated by other common cold viruses. & There doesn't seem to be anything special about the Corona related [cough]. It's a viral respiratory infection that symptomatically for children and even for immunized adults, it's clinically a viral respiratory infection." - Dr. Miles Weinberger, MD. Remember: NOT every cough is a "habit cough". Consult with your doctor.
Rapid and permanent cures of the "awake, daytime, lingering, dry, post viral cough" without a cause (absent once asleep) everywhere in the world. Important: Consult with your doctors to rule out any comorbidities. There is no medical advice on this research website.
Habit Cough Diagnosis in Adults and Children
by Dr. Miles Weinberger, MD.
Updated to include "acute" cough (below) by Dr. Weinberger on March 19, 2020
The repetitive [daytime] barking cough that is not present once the patient is asleep is the diagnostic criteria. (It might take a while for the patient to fall asleep. It matters whether the cough is not present once asleep; only to return once awake. - Editor note.)
The characteristics of the self-perpetuating [daytime] Habit Cough is its repetitiveness and absence once asleep.
Once the patient meets the diagnostic criteria for [daytime] Habit Cough, even while the repetitive cough is still considered acute (less than 4 weeks), treatment with suggestion therapy [Dr. Weinberger's Procedure HERE; in-office, via-telemedicine and by-proxy] is appropriate.
There is no need to wait until the [daytime] cough is considered to be chronic (4 weeks/ child & 8 weeks/adult)
Multiple patients report that knowledge of Dr. Weinberger's Procedure allows them to stop their future [daytime] coughs during the acute period once diagnosis of Habit Cough has been met.
Note: Dr. Weinberger is a big proponent of patient interaction with their doctors. Many adults and parents report that they have quite successfully utilized The Weinberger Procedure on themselves or their children with numerous rapid cures in the first days of their new acute [daytime] coughs - long before they become "chronic" in length. They report their cures to their amazed doctors. Please consult with your doctor prior to your use of Dr. Weinberger's Procedure. If you attempt to utilize The Weinberger Procedure on yourself or your child, you are doing this under your own volition.
If you meet the diagnostic criteria, Dr. Weinberger would like you to communicate with your or your doctor, and watch this video HERE

An interesting bit of habit cough diagnosis history in adults.
Post-virus, lingering cough, was first described by the father of modern medicine, Hippocrates of Kos, (Hippocratic Oath, "..."first, do no harm") around 450 +/- BC. HERE
Dr. Weinberger's habit cough diagnosis for adults & children from today is the same as that of an adult female in a medical text book from London, England in 1685.
It just took a pediatric pulmonologist from University of Iowa to discover the rapid and permanent cure for habit cough via-telemedicine, by-proxy (via YouTube) & in-office.
From: The LONDON PRACTICE OF PHYSICK Contained in the First Part of the Pharmaceutice Rationalis of Dr. WILLIS (c. 1685)
Page 265 - Of Convulsions in Adult Persons
"Afterword those Convulsions [coughs that were so violent that they were like the convulsive coughs we see HERE] more frequently molested her, and at length becoming periodical and habitual, they return'd twice a day,"
"viz. [namely] constantly justsomany set hours after Meals;... viz. [namely] a violent dry Cough following her day and night, unless when she was fallen asleep:..."
Special note: Until Dr. Weinberger's research, there had been little acknowledgement of habit cough in "adult persons". It was known well enough to be prominently included in this medical text book from 1685.
