Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.
You have problem of wheezing at lying down position that may be because of bronchitis.
Nocturnal asthma also cause night time wheezing and shortness of breath.
Consent a pulmonologist for further diagnosis.
Chest X ray and physical examination give exact idea. Sinusitis also cause this type of symptoms.
Proper physical examination and history give exact idea.
I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
Thank you.
