it seems she is suffering from bronchiectasis.I need patient x ray chest and detailed history for appropriate treatment.
you will initially go through some tests
blood cpesr
x-ray chest pa view
serum IgE
pulmonary function test /spirometry
a
after the results of above tests
you will have to consult a pulmonologist

I hope she would have been prescribed some regular medicine including inhaler medicine for her breathing problem in past years. she should continue with her regular medicine including inhalers and also get steam inhalation 4-5 times daily.
Following tests to be done:
cbc, ESR
CXR
Echo
