Reverse Sneezing... Or Worse?

Three nights ago, Ruki woke us up with a loud COUGH! We didn't think much of it, but then the next day she had a short fit of what I now think is reverse sneezing. That night, I took her for a walk, and she started the coughing, retching, reverse sneezing, which ended up with her vomiting repeatedly on the sidewalk. While we worked our way home, her hacking stopped, and she was OK.

Last night, around 2 a.m., we heard her hacking/coughing again, and then she started a puking session all over the apartment again. This morning and afternoon she's been hacking/coughing, but has been holding her puke down.

I've watched videos, and it looks like reverse sneezing. I'm just worried about the vomiting. Does anyone else's bulldog reverse sneeze and then vomit, too?

I don't want to have to go to the vet, and have them not know what it is and then charge us $100 for tests if it's something that's fairly common. She doesn't have a fever, isn't listless or lethargic, no runny nose, no extraordinary eye discharge, and the poo's fine.

Here's a video of her:
