espozaderaul	You can still have sleep apnia even though you don't snore, you could also have a heart arithmia, which means your respiratory system slows or sometimes stops while sleeping, in any case, you should go to a specialist since your current doctor doesn't seem to really keep your best interest in mind Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

MovieChic	Not sure what it is, but it wouldn't hurt to have an inhaler on hand. Go to the emergency room if it gets worse. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

maloney baloney	It sounds like the onset of full-blown asthma. I suggest you see your doctor ASAP (it's not like you're going to die right away, but breathing is kind of important...) and get examined for possible asthma. Chances are once you're prescribed an inhaler or an asthma-controlling medicine like cingulair, your symptoms will disappear. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

darci	Well I think you should see a doctor as soon as you can, and go to an emergency room NOW. Depending on the severity and the frequency of the symptoms asthma can be classified in different stages. So maybe when you went to see your doctor he did not hear anything because you were between the attacks. In asthma, the air you breathe can get in but it can't come out, that is why you hear the wheezing on your exhalation, do you cough? that is another symptom that can tell you may be having an attack. Asthma is a condition that should get appropiate treatment as soon as possible. Don't wait any longer, you should get some spirometry done, some chest Xrays. Hope you will get better soon.
