Time to see a doctor: A person with difficulty breathing needs to see her doctor right away, or more likely be seen in the ER. Possible causes include spontaneous pneumothorax, asthma, heart attack, pleurisy (inflammation of the lining inside the chest), fluid in the lungs, pneumonia, myocarditis, etc... The doctor can examine the abdomen too, to see what the problem might be, such as abdominal fluid distention.
