Possibilities...: Possible etiologies include bronchospasm from any cause, gerd or even sinus problems like post-nasal drip. Shortness of breath is a serious symptom that can even be life-threatening. So, you need to see your doctor or even go to an er, especially if your symptoms are worsening. Each of these diagnoses has a different treatment so you need to be diagnosed asap.
