Not all shortness of breath is the same. When patients adapt to their symptoms, or when a current diagnosis just doesn’t fit, it’s time to dig deeper and see what is missing. In this episode, Amanda Atkinson, MSN, RN, talks with Physician Associate Brian Bizik, who shares clinical insight and his family’s personal story with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.
