Suggest Treatment For Cough, Diarrhoea, Vomiting And Nausea

I have had been coughing several times a day for two weeks. Ten days ago I vomitted every two hours for 10 hours and had diarrhea. I felt very weak for three days and then I flew to Hawaii. While there, I was coughing the same amount. My voice is very hoarse but I don t have any pain in my throat. It is just raw from coughing so much. Three days ago, I had intense and uncontrollable chills for three hours, which then turned I to a fever. I took Ibuprofen and it helped. Yesterday when I was flying back from Hawaii, I felt nauseous for the whole flight and then vomitted after we landed. Today I have eaten a little. Ore than I have been. I don t have chills and I don t feel nauseous. I am continuously coughing still.

Thanks for your query at HCM!
I am Infectious Disease Specialist! I went through your query!

You need to take few tests to establish the cause of fever.
It could be acute bacterial infection or tubercular in nature.
Get your throat assessed first by ENT specialist it could just be allergy.
Coughing is causing vomiting. Diarrhoea could be due to infection.
Take a course of antibiotic to see if symptoms resolve.
If does not improve get X-ray and sputum culture/sensitivity for bacterial/tubercular infection. You might require CECT scan test to see for lymph nodes.
Happy to take more queries! You can also write a review for me. If you would like some more information, I will be happy to provide. You can take a follow-up query.
Take care!
