He flips on his side really fast then it looks like he has a hard time breathing. He's been drinking alot of water and sneezing continuously.

Take him to the vet. He may have an upper respiratory infection. Rabbits are not made to be sick, and they don't take to medicine very well. But, the doc can give you the best advice on how to get your bun back on his feet. Meantime, make sure his cage is clean, his food and water are fresh, and that he has a clean dry place to rest. You might put him near a light source for added heat (but not too much heat). Make sure the bun is protected from drafts.
You may need to do some extra cleaning, like daily, rather than weekly, to be sure germs aren't contributing to his condition.

Sneezing could be indicative of several problems. I suggest that you go to the vet. The flips your refering to is normal its called the dead bunny flop. People get scared the first time they see it but its normal.

Drinking lots of water? Falling on his side? The sneezing...
Sounds like it could be rat poison. Keep your rabbit away from anyone who might do that.

If she is eating, pooing, drinking, playing properly then don't worry about the sneezing - at least that's what my vet told me.

It could possibly be a cold,
This has happened to one of my bunnys before.
I'd take him/her to the vet just to make sure there is nothing seriously wrong.
I hope you find out if there is anything wrong. ♥
