I noticed I've been breathing about 25 times a minute when I checked my respiration rate. Is that normal or is it a bit fast? If it's not typical, what might be causing this?

I've been having trouble breathing recently and went to see the doctor. He asked me to get an X-ray of my chest and face. The report said my lungs are clear, but I have a lung infection and sinusitis. I'm still struggling to breathe. Could this be small cell lung cancer? I have some symptoms, except for weight loss and coughing up blood or phlegm. It's been going on for a month, even though I'm on meds the doctor prescribed. Should I be worried?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .A pulmonologist opinion is also advised to the patient.
