I'm suddenly or persistently short of breath — what now? Richard Fiero, MD, Pulmonologist and Sleep Specialist at University of Maryland Capital Region Health, explains what dyspnea can mean and how clinicians approach it. He defines different ways people experience breathlessness, reviews possible causes discussed on the show (anxiety, asthma flare, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, heart problems, even a collapsed lung), and outlines the typical workup: history and lung exam, chest X‑ray or chest CT, pulmonary function testing, and sometimes cardiac evaluation like an echocardiogram. Dr. Fiero also talks about the overlap between anxiety and physical disease, when relaxation may help temporarily, and practical guidance on deciding between calling 911, going to the ER, or seeing your primary care doctor or a pulmonologist. Above all, he emphasizes taking symptoms seriously and not hesitating to seek care.  More information about Dr. FieroMore information about lung health at UM Capital Region Health

In this eye-opening episode of Something Bigger With Rodrigo Canelas, we sit down with Dr. Manvir Bhatia, Senior Neurologist and Sleep Specialist with over 40 years of clinical experience, Director of the Neurology and Sleep Centre in Hauz Khas, New Delhi, and a specialist affiliated with the Department of Sleep Medicine at Max Hospital. Together, we explore one of the most overlooked aspects of modern life: sleep. This conversation will make you rethink the hours you spend, or fail to spend, asleep and how they impact your brain, body, and long-term health. Most people think of sleep as a passive afterthought, something you catch up on over the weekend, or trade away for one more hour of productivity. Dr. Bhatia dismantles that idea with numbers that are hard to ignore: 1 billion people worldwide have sleep apnea, and roughly 100 million of them are in India alone, with up to 50 million classified as moderate to severe. She reveals a phenomenon she now sees daily in patients in their late 30s and early 40s: a hyper-aroused, "tired but wired" brain that simply won't shut off at night, driven by always-on phones, stretched-out work hours, and a nervous system stuck permanently in fight-or-flight. The consequences aren't cosmetic. Poor sleep is now linked to high blood pressure that resists medication, pre-diabetes, atrial fibrillation, weight gain driven by disrupted hunger hormones, worsening depression, and even a measurable rise in the amyloid proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease because, as she explains, your brain has its own overnight cleaning system, and it only turns on when you're properly asleep.She introduces circadian biology and the real reason your body clock gets desynchronized: cortisol pushed late into the night by screens and stress, and melatonin suppressed by artificial light, leaving people wide awake at 2 or 3 a.m. even when they're "getting their eight hours." She reveals a strikingly simple, science-backed fix: morning sunlight is more effective at protecting your night's sleep than any blue-light blocking glasses. She breaks down why coffee's half-life means your 4 p.m. cup is still active in your bloodstream past midnight, why wearable sleep trackers are only reliably accurate for onset and wake times (and can be 10–15% off on deeper metrics), and why some of her most difficult patients are the ones who've simply normalized feeling exhausted for so long they no longer believe better is possible. She also shares a case of a man whose entire personality irritability, social withdrawal, rising blood pressure reversed within eight weeks, without medication, simply by fixing his sleep schedule.This conversation isn't just about sleep. It's about the foundation underneath every other goal you're chasing: your focus, your patience with the people you love, your metabolic health, your risk of disease decades from now. Before you reach for another cup of coffee to survive the afternoon, ask yourself: is the problem your schedule, or is it your sleep?Time Stamps:(3:35) – The Wearable Device That Shocked Her Into Action(4:33) – The Hidden Signs You're Sleep Deprived Without Knowing It(7:51) – What Really Worries Her About This New Generation of Sleepers(11:49) – The Slippery Slope From "Just One Pill" to a Dangerous Cycle(13:18) – The Startling Link Between Sleep Medication and Dementia(20:44) – How Many Hours of Sleep Do You Actually Need?(23:36) – Why Some People Have Secretly Normalized Feeling Exhausted(26:30) – Why Your 4 P.M.

Sleep apnea can cause you to stop breathing repeatedly during the night — sometimes dozens or even hundreds of times — without you realizing it. And while loud snoring is a common warning sign, it is not the only one.In this episode of Baptist HealthTalk, host Dr. Anthony Gonzalez talks with sleep specialist Dr. Edward Mezerhane about how sleep apnea affects the body, the symptoms people often miss, and what can happen when the condition goes untreated.They also break down how sleep apnea is diagnosed, why weight and airway anatomy matter, what to do if CPAP is difficult to tolerate, and the other treatment options available. What sleep apnea is and how common it may be  Why people can stop breathing without realizing it  Common and overlooked symptoms of sleep apnea  The connection between sleep apnea, weight gain and heart health  Whether losing weight can improve sleep apnea  How sleep studies confirm a diagnosis  Ways to make CPAP easier to tolerate  Alternatives to CPAP, including oral appliances and surgical options Sleep apnea is highly treatable. If you regularly wake up exhausted, snore loudly, or a bed partner notices pauses in your breathing, getting evaluated may help improve both your sleep and your long-term health.For more health and wellness information, visit BaptistHealth.net/News.Host:Anthony Gonzalez, M.D.Chief of Surgery, Baptist Health Baptist HospitalMedical Director of Bariatric Surgery, Baptist HealthGuest:Edward Mezerhane, M.D.Sleep Medicine PhysicianIf you found this episode helpful, you may also enjoy:7 Ways Summer Can Wreck Your SleepThis is What Lack of Sleep Does to your Brain and HeartPillow Talk: Uncovering the Sleep-Heart Link

Are you a night owl, early bird, or something in between? The key to better sleep, more energy, and improved wellness might be in understanding your chronotype — your body's natural biological clock.We're diving into the science of chronotypes and how understanding yours can help you optimize your sleep schedule, energy, focus, and mood, without forcing yourself into a routine that leads to “social jet lag”. (For night owls who struggle with early mornings, this is the validating episode you deserve!)Whether you're a Bear, Lion, Wolf, or Dolphin (based on Dr. Michael Breus' sleep research), your chronotype determines when you're wired to wake up, feel alert, and perform at your best. But most of us are living out of sync with our internal clock. So how do we hack it?It's time to stop fighting your biology and learn how to work with your natural rhythms. Tune in to learn about:

Breast implants don't just change your body. They can impact your mind too.For many women, removing implants brings unexpected relief: less anxiety, deeper sleep, clearer thinking, even a sense of liberation they didn't realize they were missing. Patients often say, “I got my life back.”San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and his wife, clinical psychologist and sleep specialist Dr. Dominika Swistun, explain how implants can fuel anxiety and disrupt sleep, and why explant surgery often lifts both physical and emotional weight.From the story of a woman who was placed on full disability for panic attacks and immediately felt like herself again after explant surgery to research showing how sleep quality shapes mental health, the Swistuns reveal the powerful—and often overlooked—connection between implants, the body, and the mind.LinksListen to our previous episode, A Sleep Specialist's Secrets for Better Mood, Skin & EnergyRead more about San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke Swistun and schedule your complimentary consultationFollow Dr. Swistun on Instagram @swistunmd to see his explant resultsLearn more about breast implant removalLearn from the talented plastic surgeons inside La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre, the 12x winner of the San Diego's Best Union-Tribune Readers Poll, global winner of the 2020 MyFaceMyBody Best Cosmetic/Plastic Surgery Practice, and the 2025 winner of Best Cosmetic Surgery Group in San Diego Magazine's Best of San Diego Awards.Join hostess Monique Ramsey as she takes you inside LJCSC, where dreams become real.

Everyone loves the NCAA basketball tournament...teams colliding in a winner-take-all tournament for basketball supremacy.
