As per your history it suggests your respiratory system is weak , so you need extra care to maintain it.
I will advise you bronchoscopy and HRCT chest to see for origin of symptoms. I will advise you to improve your immunity by herbs exercises and healthy diet. Also you can improve your lung capacity by yoga and pranayama.
If you are having congestive heart failure due to hypertension then respiratory system can be involved.
