Hi I don't think she is having any flu or upper respiratory tract infection .It is because of the drugs she is using post angioplasty.Cough is a side effect of the medication she is using.

It is very difficult to advise a person who had angioplasty so recently. The cough could be due to upper respiratory infection or it could be a side effect of some medicine which she is taking. Only a Doctor examining her can give appropriate advice.
