Doing everything right for your COPD and still exhausted, foggy and short of breath? It might not be your lungs.

In honor of World Oxygen Day (October 2, also my birthday!), I'm joined by fellow pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine physician Dr. Saema Tahir, the NYC Sleep Doctor. We talk about what happens when COPD and obstructive sleep apnea overlap, why it's so often missed, and what you can do about it.

Oxygen therapy is life-changing when you need it. But if sleep apnea is part of the picture, oxygen alone won't fix it.
