Sick with a cold for 2 weeks but no fever. should i see a doctor?

Probably not: Depends in large part on what you mean by "sick with cold". There are several symptoms of upper respiratory tract viral, mycoplasma or chlamydial infections which can persist for up to a month. If you simply have a persistent runny nose, non-productive cough, feeling of malaise, would try to ride it out. Keep yourself hydrated, sleep well (use otc products), and rest. Wish you better.
