It may be cardiac or respiratory in origin. It is possible that he may developed heart failure. Use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week. Avoid cool drinks and freeze water, consult your physician he will check for heart failure or Acute episode of asthma or anemia/liver/kidney failure with fluid retention.
