In sad news, NHL legend Claude Lemieux has passed away. Lemieux was famous, amongnother things, for for one particular brawl with Darren McCarty, during a playoff game. While no diagnosis of CTE has been made at this time, it’s possible there was a link between the hockey fights, CTE, and his untimely passing.

Insurance coverage can look great on paper.

But when a patient needs real care, the reality can be very different.

As a spine surgeon, I’ve seen delays and denials turn manageable surgical problems into urgent situations. And that is where the system starts to fail patients.

This is not just about paperwork.

It’s about pain, mobility, neurologic function, and the time patients may not have.

I’m curious — are other physicians seeing this too?

And patients, have you ever had a procedure denied when you thought your insurance would cover it?

Stress is not weakness. It is physiology.

Your brain and nervous system are constantly responding to signals: sleep, light, movement, breath, pain, workload, relationships, and recovery.

The goal is not to eliminate stress completely. That is impossible. The goal is to help your nervous system come back down after stress instead of staying stuck in survival mode.

Small habits matter because the brain learns through repetition.

Educational purposes only. If stress, anxiety, sleep problems, or mood changes are affecting your daily life, talk to a qualified healthcare professional.

Sources to support the science: breathing practices may support parasympathetic activity; mindfulness and meditation have evidence for reducing psychological stress; physical activity can help relieve stress and improve mood; brief nature exposure has been associated with lower stress markers.

My thoughts on the new Gymkhana Las Vegas, as someone who has been Indian my whole life:

I’ve never seen venison on a menu in India; conversely the restaurant lacks tandoor chicken which you’d typically see on a menu in India. But overall, the food was delicious, the service was fantastic and we were happy to have snagged a reservation at this popular spot.

Behind every surgeon is a part of the job most people never see.

The long hours.
The pressure.
The difficult decisions.
The cases that stay with you long after the day is over.

Surgery is not just technical skill. It is responsibility, judgment, preparation, and the ability to stay steady when everything matters.

And at the center of it all is always the patient.

That is what makes the hard days worth it.

A brain freeze is a brief, sharp headache caused by consuming something extremely cold. It happens when cold temperatures hit the roof of your mouth or back of your throat, causing nearby blood vessels to rapidly constrict and then dilate.

To avoid brain freeze, slow down your eating and keep cold foods away from the roof of your mouth.

Memorial Day weekend always feels like more than just a holiday.

It’s that unofficial bridge between spring and summer — when the weather gets warmer, the grill comes out, the kids run around outside, and life slows down just enough to enjoy the little things.

For us, that means family, food, laughter, and making memories around the barbecue.

Summer is almost here, and we’re ready for more days like this.

Wishing everyone a meaningful Memorial Day weekend — and a beautiful start to the summer season.

The false statement was #2: A herniated disc always needs surgery.

Here’s the breakdown:

1. The brain itself has no pain receptors
True. Headache pain usually comes from surrounding structures like blood vessels, meninges, nerves, and scalp.

2. A herniated disc always needs surgery
False. Many herniated discs improve with time, physical therapy, medication, injections, or activity changes. Surgery is usually reserved for severe, persistent symptoms or signs of nerve damage.

3. Loss of bladder control with back pain can be an emergency
True. This can be a red flag for serious nerve compression and needs urgent evaluation.

4. Numbness or weakness can come from nerve compression
True. Compressed nerves can cause pain, tingling, numbness, weakness, or reflex changes.

5. Chiropractic neck manipulation can lead to artery injury or stroke
True. It’s rare, but forceful neck manipulation has been associated with serious vascular complications. The point: not every spine problem needs surgery, but some symptoms should never be ignored.

In sad news, American stock car racing star Kyle Busch passed away from pneumonia which lead to sepsis. How does that happen?

Sepsis occurs when a lung infection, like pneumonia, triggers an extreme and dangerous immune system response. Instead of just fighting the localized infection in the lungs, the body releases chemicals that cause widespread inflammation, leading to leaky blood vessels, microscopic blood clots, and eventual organ damage.

Bacteria, viruses, or fungi causing the pneumonia multiply in the lungs and can eventually breach the thin air sacs, entering the bloodstream directly. As the pathogens circulate or the lung inflammation escalates, the immune system goes into overdrive. The resulting inflammatory chemicals start attacking healthy tissues, compromising the lungs’ ability to transfer oxygen and ultimately causing other vital organs (like the kidneys or liver) to malfunction.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Kyle’s beautiful family and all of his loved ones.
