ASAP: You better see a doctor asap! your wife is right. Fix it early.

Yes : Any time you have trouble breathing, you need to be evaluated by a physician to figure out what is wrong and provide the correct treatment before it becomes life-threatening. You may have bronchitis or even pneumonia both of which are treatable. Shortness of breath should never be ignored.
