HelloWelcome in ChatDoctorI have gone through your concern and I will try to help you. According to the history you have difficulty in breathing mainly during the night and laying down. I strongly recommend you to do some tests for the lungs especially:HemogramCRPChest x spirometry test with b/dilatatorsEKGPrick testator having the results the pulmonologist will for sure prescribe to you some medications like inhalers (Ventolin + Sere tide) maybe oral corticosteroids for several days, some mucositis, and you will feel better again. If you smoke you have to stop it immediately. If you are obese you have to lose weight to do some exercises physical activity, a lot of liquids. So consult a specialist please. Chat Doctor.
