Brief Answer:
Need a respiratory health check
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome here,
I think she maybe having some respiratory issue. How is her basic blood tests like hemoglobin, thyroid function test, liver function test kidney function test, fasting blood sugar levels, etc. Is she taking any medicine? Does she have any allergies?
I will suggest to consult an ENT or lung and chest specialist and get evaluated. He may suggest further tests like chest X Ray PA view, ECG, pulmonary function test, CT scan chest to find cause.
