On the road, at work, at school and at home — we, our friends, neighbors, co-workers and loved ones average less than seven hours of sleep each weekday. Thatâs a lot of sleep-deprived Houstonians. And weâre not just tired.ÂWeâre inattentive, less productive and itâs not good for us.
That’s why every six months or so, Houston Matters seeks to help the insomniacs, sleepwalkers, snorers and otherwise restless sleepers among us.
Today, we welcome your questions about sleep and sleep disorders for Dr. Richard Castriotta, Medical Director ofÂMemorial Hermann-Texas Medical Centerâs Sleep Disorders CenterÂand director ofÂpulmonary and sleep medicine at UT Health’s McGovern Medical School.
