Brief Answer:
This is very unlikely

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

So far, no association between electromagnetic radiation (from gadgets, wifi, etc) and lung cancer or any other cancer. It should not cause any breathing difficulty either.
I don't think these are symptoms of lung cancer.

Overall, there is nothing to worry.

Regards
