What Causes Difficulty In Breathing?

I live in Florida with high heat and humidity, it is getting harder and harder to breathe in the summer. Makes it hard to do anything physical. I live on the 3rd floor and just getting to my door makes my heart pound. I am better then inside, with the ac. Is there anything that I can take, such as an inhaler, that can help me?
