I've been sick a few days and i'll be fine for like 12 hours then start coughing and chocking on drainage, which makes me feel like i need to throw up?

Post nasal drip: It sounds like you have a significant upper respiratory tract infection, likely a virus. The mucous likely drains into your stomach, making you nauseated. You might consider taking a decongestant that contains guaifenesin and dextromethorphan, take a hot shower, and use a nasal irrigating device with saline to clear out your sinuses.
