Sleep Apnea Support/Questions Thread

[Don Fernando]

it looks like my apnea has almost disappeared after losing over 100lbs. Last week, the night after my surgery, I was in the hospital at the medium care. I had a sore throat and decided with the medical staff not to wear my cpap mask, they would monitor my sleep and if they decided that I should wear it anyway they would tell me. I only had 3 or 4 apneas that night, while a couple of years ago I would have have 3 every 2 minutes.

So in a few months, when I lost another 60 of 70lbs, I will file for a new sleep study to see what happens and if I can sleep without my cpap from then.
