What causes persistent cough, vomiting and dizziness?
Patient: Hello, I m a 19 year old female. To explain my problem I have to go a few years back. And please ignore the grammar mistakes, my English is not so good. So when I was 11 years old, I had a lung infection and the treatment went for a long time. After the treatment I was totally fine, but cough and cold would appear every winter since then. It would only stay during the winter and then it would go away. But from the last two years I m experiencing it during all the months. The cough didn t go even during the summer season. The cough thing is always staying with me. I ignored the problem, as it was only cough and cold. Now since the last 2-3 weeks, I m feeling nauseous and dizzy. I even vomited several times. When I feel too dizzy that I feel like I would fell, the vomiting sensation starts. I feel that it has something to do with my cough, which has continously stayed for a long time now. And I also stay a bit depressed. I think it is not bronchitis, coz I ve taken the medicine for that and it s not working. I m not sure what is it, please help!
