Medical Media Mixer Podcast – House, Lupus & Selena Gomez’s Mental Health Journey 🎶🩺🍸 Medical Media Mixer is your go-to health and wellness podcast, shaken with cocktails and stirred with entertainment and media. In this episode, we dive into three very different but equally fascinating stories from medicine and pop culture: 🏥 House M.D. (Season 4, Episode 8: You Don’t Want to Know) – exploring rare diagnoses, transesophageal echocardiography, cardiac complications, and unusual physical exam findings. 🎬 Beyond the Universe – a Brazilian Netflix drama about love, illness, and resilience. 🎤 Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me – the intimate Apple TV+ documentary highlighting lupus, autoimmune disease, and mental health struggles. And of course, we stir it together with our Cocktails of the Week: 🍇 Purple Rain cocktail – fruity and bold. 🌿 Anti-Inflammatory cocktail – wellness-inspired with turmeric and ginger. 🫀 Medical Topics from House, M.D. Transesophageal echocardiography – indications & complications (UpToDate) Heart failure causes & symptoms (Mayo Clinic) Aspergillosis overview (CDC) | Cleveland Clinic Grey Turner’s sign Intestinal ischemia Nosebleeds (epistaxis) Ventricular arrhythmias (Medscape) Cardiac biopsy – what to expect Acute coronary syndromes (Medscape) Sense of impending doom Hemolytic transfusion reactions [Amyloidosis](https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/amyloidosis/symptoms-causes/syc-20353178#:~:text=Amyloidosis%20(am%2Duh%2Dloi,nervous%20system%20and%20digestive%20tract.)
