I went to the doctors on tuesday and had strep. i'm having congestion and vouching and such. could i have a cold too or van strep cause this too?

Yes: Strep can cause a runny nose and coughing and even vomiting. It should be better in a day or two with the antibiotics. If not and it's still there when you are done with them, see your doc again.
