Detailed history-present and past required to have a proper diagnosis. He may have possibility of bronchial asthma, indigestion as you mentioned(GERD) is seen with asthma patients.

If shortness of breath is very severe, audible wheezing, uncomfortable awareness of raised pulse rate, he is unable to complete sentences would require emergency in-hospital visit. Kindly look for these warning signs.
