Have flu ?: If recently had flu symptoms, maybe gillian barre. Visit hospital please. Ascending weakness will affect breathing.

One possibility: But you could possess a problem in your lower back, or you might have a peripheral neuropathy. Since many considerations are potentials, recommend seeing your doctor and get this evaluated ASAP. A neurologist would likely help pinpoint the cause of your problems.
