Hi brianne. My name is Ceci, i'm 18 years old. I was diagnosed at age 14. I usually don't have a lot of congestion unless i'm sick *knock on wood* but when I am sick and coughing constantly at night, I found that if I sleep at an angle, with my head and shoulders elevated, it helps me a lot. Also, I put my arms up over my head to get more oxygen and control my breathing through the coughing spasms. I hope this helps. I found the best way to prop myself up is to buy one of those pillows that are designed for sitting up in bed.
Good luck and if you'd like to talk more, feel free to private message me here.
Be well.
