Brief Answer:
Some investigations are needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for providing more information. As you have mentioned about your cough followed by vomiting, I would suggest that you should get your blood tested for Complete Blood Count ( CBC ) and Absolute Eosinophil Count. A Chest X - Ray PA view will be helpful along with the other investigations. An antihistamine like Fexofenadine 120 mg once a day can give relief from cough. Gargle with warm saline water will have added benefits.
You should consult your local area doctor for further clinical evaluation.
I hope this answers your query.
Regards. Thanks.
