What Causes Cough With Shortness Of Breath And Wheezing?
I am a breast cancer patient who has been experiencing a chronic cough accompanied with shortness of breath wheezing and a rattling sound in my chest. The cough keeps me awake at night and it s also causing severe pain in my back and ribs. Any ideas what may be causing the symptoms?

I would advise you to do a CT scan of chest.
The cancer may have spread to his chest and chemotherapy is needed.
