What Causes Difficulty In Breathing Followed By Vomiting?

My 16 year old son has been to doctor twice for not being able to breathe and then he vomits. He has had a breathing treatment, steroid, inhaler and clarithromysin. He is almost done with medicine and continues to suffer. Could this have anything to do with asthma?

If difficulty in breathing is persistent than it might be due to asthma for which you can consult your local physician and go for some investigations to isolate the cause. At present, you can take some antibiotic preferably levoflox after an expert advice along with deriphylline or salbutamol for difficulty in breathing. You can also use duolin inhaler if breathing difficulty is very severe.
