There are several possibilities as reported by the NIH, including asthma, heart failure, and several others.

What medications did you take?

Do you take any medications regularly? Do you have any diagnosed medical conditions?

Have you been checked for pneumonia and TB?

I had the same symptoms, had Cat Scan and found "tree in bud" looking stuff in right lung which leads to infection of some kind, next hospital to scope lung and get sample for lab. Results came back I have Nocardia Nova bacteria which is in all dirt and water. We had a mfg company moving mountains readying for building for a year. I am on sulfamethoxazole-TMP-DS twice a day for 6-12 months. Cough is better, not gone yet, but wheezing is gone. It is said this is a slow process. It took 3 doctors & finally a pulmonologist to finally come up with a diagnosis---9 months of suffering and lost 30 pounds in the process.
