I have a chronic cough and my stomach is producing thick mucus, especially when lying down, and sometimes I cough up blood. I had a chest X-ray that was negative. Should I seek a second opinion?

My husband has lost nearly 3 stone in 3 months, not diet related. He has a worsening cough for 6 months with excessive catarrh running down his throat, causing choking and continuous coughing, but not at night when lying down. He also urinates more frequently at night. He was diagnosed with asbestos pleural plaques in both lungs 4 years ago, and recent tests show no progression of pathology in the lungs. He has signs of extreme allergy in his nasal tissues and a benign goitre with normal thyroid hormones. Despite eating as much as he can, his weight keeps dropping off, and bread gives him diarrhea. Can coeliac disease or cancer cause these symptoms?

My wife has been an undiagnosed diabetic until about 10 years ago. About 3 years ago, she finally went to the MD. The diagnosis was made but by now she has major problems. She is legally blind. Treatment has been aggressive but not successful. She has been in the hospital for one and is being treated for pneumonia and congestive heart failure which have apparently been corrected. She was scheduled for an ocular procedure. She was given 4 eye drops (Alphagen, Xalatan, Azopt & Istalol) and Diamox. She is currently experiencing illusions (talking to people not in the room, our dog, etc.). She is seeing a nephrologist, cardiologist, neurologist plus her primary care MD. How can we be of assistance?
