Not a child but my Dad recently had most of those symptoms diagnosed as GORD - particularly the cough. He put up with it for years before my Mum made him do something about it. He started medication and had a great result.
I believe there are quite a few natural remedies, but my dad's not into 'that' as he puts it.
Stuff like being upright after a meal, sleeping on an incline and identifying triggers should help.
My daughter has GORD and has suffered since she was born. She is now almost 3 years old. The gastro paed you are seeing may suggest doing an endoscopy (camera down the throat) to have a look at whats going on in the inside. Did you daughter have issues as a baby with eating or reflux? My daughter has been on Zantac, Losec and now Nexium.
