My father is experiencing shallow breathing, dry coughing, and sudden episodes of rapid breathing. He was diagnosed with acute bronchitis and asthma two weeks ago. The coughing comes and goes, and he had chest pain two weeks ago but was almost recovered. He is 57 years old and uses two inhalers, one for Ventoline and another for a heavy drug. His doctor mentioned low oxygen levels in his blood, but he was doing alright for the past three days before this sudden onset of symptoms. He feels good for 10 minutes but then suddenly starts taking fast and shallow breaths, making it difficult for him to breathe.
