Wheezing w/bronchiti: May have associated reflux , therefore happening at night . Can try ranitidine and or prevecid before bed. Would also elevate head of bed with pillow under mattress ( it will help you breathe anyway as compress lungs when lying down). May also be reactive airways due to bornchitis-elevating head of bed helps. f/u w/ doc
