Can you die from problems breathing and fever?

Maybe: Depends on the cause, but some people die from the flu, which can cause problems breathing and fever. Shortness of breath always needs medical attention, its a serious symptom.

Yes...: Difficulty breathing can be due to very serious and even life-threatening disorders. Some of these disorders also have fever associated with them. If a person is short of breath they need to see a doctor urgently even if that means going to the nearest er.
