Dear friend, welcome and thanks for entrusting your query here at HCM!
I am Dr. Prasad Akole (Critical Care Expert- http://bit.ly/Dr-Prasad-Akole) and am glad to address to your query here.

You are breathless because you have a bad lung which is collapsed and has its coverings (pleura) diseased.
Also there are kidney stones.
These are causing you pain and breathlessness.
Have you been evaluated for these problems?
They are serious and should not be neglected.

Please post all old details and reports/Xrays here using the site’s uploader so that I can advise better.

You MUST see a pulmonologist and a nephrologist before it is too late !!
Do not neglect at all.
They may be separate disorders or part of the same process.

I hope you are fully satisfied with the guidance I gave.
I would be glad to answer any further queries. May I request you to rate your experience here before you close.
Thank you and Good luck!
