Doctor...: Without knowing anything about you makes answering your post extremely difficult; however i always err on the side of caution so if you are having any difficulty breathing call your doctor right away; or have someone take you to the nearest emergency room. If you are alone then call 9-11 as soon as possible!

Call your doc NOW: If it's hard to breathe, please call your provider now. I'm worried about you. Inflamed airways [like asthma] or pneumonia are some of my concerns. Breathing=good.
