Default cough for several months

I don't know what to do. I bought my yorkie in september and he has had a cough from day one. At first when I brought him home he had reverse sneezing and [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]coughing[/COLOR][/COLOR]

like 6 times per day each. Not after treating it for 7 months it has gone down to 1 per day coughing only.the reverse sneezing is very rare now only when he gets excited. He usually coughs 1 time when he wakes up or after [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]drinking [COLOR=green! important]water[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR]. He was off [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]meds[/COLOR][/COLOR] for 1 month in january since the [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]vet[/COLOR][/COLOR] said it was too much med for him. I have changed vets 2 times. X-ray were done and it was not collapse trachea. I have seen the youtube videos for reverse [COLOR=green! important][COLOR=green! important]sneeze[/COLOR][/COLOR], but he does not do that anymore only when there is a guest in the house and he gets super excited. And the cough it sounds like a human cough. It has gotten better from when i brought him home, but 7 months its 2 much time. he is always wearing a sweater and never goes outside when its cold or theres air.....everything else is okay.....what do i do now...i also put on the vicks humidifier 4 times per week at night till the morning. He sleeps in my room. ....I mean 7 months with a cough is a really long time. he has not been on meds for 1 week now. but taking him over and over to vet and does not go away.....im thinking of trying out honey since i read its good for that...anyone can suggest one.....or advize me on what to do next
