Doubtful.
These are very non-specific signs.
Post-nasal drip, reflux, PREVIOUS meth use which increases the risk of these, sinus infection, sleep apnea, are some of many other possibilities BUT... meth is a stimulant. Changes in sleep such as NOT SLEEPING AT ALL would be much more of an indication. Frankly, I'm not sure someone with significant meth use would be sleeping.
