Adenoids & Cough

My daughter is 7 years old and has had bronchitis since Oct 19th.  She was on a 10 day antibiotic (Omnicef) followed by Zythromax for 5 days since the infections still was in her chest.  She was diagnosed last year as borderline asthmatic.  She has had chest xrays and a sinus scan.  I went to see an ENT and he told me that her adenoids are not too bad, but an adenoidectomy is always an option.  I took her back to the doctor yesterday because she still had a deep cough (even though she is on zyrtec, cingular, pulmacort twice a day and xoponex 3 times a day).  The only way I can get her to stop coughing is with dylsum.  The doctor said he heard rattling still in her chest and put her on oral steriods on top of all her other medications.  I am so frustrated and would appreciate any comments.
