Hi,
Cough with dry throat, nausea and feeling cold plus weakness often comes with a common viral infection.
Rest, warm fluids and steam can ease it nicely. If it doesn't settle in a couple of days, a medical review would be worthwhile.
Feel free to consult for further guidance.

Dry cough with nausea, a dry sore throat, chills, and weakness is a very common presentation of an upper respiratory tract infection or early viral illness. These symptoms usually last about 5-7 days and tend to resolve on their own with proper rest. Drinking warm fluids, gargling with warm salt water, and staying warm can help ease the discomfort in the meantime.
Next Steps
Rest well and stay hydrated. Please consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation if symptoms worsen or persist beyond a week.
