See doc ASAP!: you need to be evaluated at either an ER or urgent care center ASAP! You may have pneumonia or acute bronchitis. You also likely have bronchospasm that is not responding to your rescue inhaler. Shortness of breath is a very serious symptom so you need to be seen ASAP at an ER or urgent care center. Good luck!!!!!
