The cough may be related to your heart problem. What is your LVEF on latest echo report? Sometimes some heart medications can cause persistent cough. Or this may be just an upper respiratory tract infection. There can be still more causes for your cough. You will need proper clinical examination by a doctor. So please meet a cardiologist as early as possible and get yourself personally examined for a final advice on this issue. Thanks. Hope this helps.
