See doctor: If you have been vomiting a lot then dehydration and electrolyte imbalance would be my guess. On the other hand, you need to find out if you have a bout of pneumonia or even TB. Need to see doctor since you have waited long enough.

It can take a while: ...for your immune system to recover after a viral illness. If you are draining a lot of mucous that you are swallowing, that can cause nausea (the mucous is irritating to the stomach). Try to blow mucous out (or spit it out after coughing), rest, push fluid (especially with electrolytes), and see a doctor if you aren't better in another few days.
