Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, weight gain can cause breathing difficulty.
And in my opinion, your weight gain is mostly due to stress and depression because of your mother's death.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
You may also need anxiolytic and anti depressant drugs.
Also start dieting and aerobic exercise like running, cycling and swimming for weight loss.
Don't worry, once you lose your weight, you will not have breathing difficulty.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
