Mgt: It would be helpful to have more details such as whether you have shortness of breath, wheezing or dizziness. I would suggest being seen by your PCP. If the cough persists, please see the ED For nausea, try sips of clear liquids and no solid food for a few hours, and please monitor your temperature.
