I'm having trouble with my breathing and find it really hard to climb stairs. I just can't walk fast, and running is out of the question. Even walking for a long time is becoming a struggle. What could be causing these issues? How should I address them?

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She had blood in her vomit, and an X-ray showed an infection. Our general doctor advised a CT scan, which revealed a cavity in her lungs. We did a sputum test to check for TB, but it came back negative. While she's undergoing further checks, I'm just really anxious to understand what other tests might help pinpoint the root cause of this. She's 31, so any insight would be really helpful.
