Haha! I don't mean to laugh, I'm certainly glad you haven't passed away!! Just happy to hear the snoring is gone. I am SUCH a loud snorer I've ruined a few weekend getaways with friends before I realized what the problem was. I look forward to not having to buy a separate hotel room just so others can sleep!!

You're living the dream!! Lol! Thanks for your input

@@Meonlybetter1 @@SeahawksFan @@jenn1 @@CowgirlJane thanks so much for your input! It gives me hope of a well rested night's sleep, I honestly am looking forward to that more then anything! ????

@@Djmohr @@Cheri_j thank you for your input!! The one (stupid, but it makes sense to me) reason why I have not gotten tested is because I don't want to have to use a CPAP/BIPAP machine and become dependent on it, so I'm hoping this helps. The surgeon might say "too bad you need to get one" but I'm hoping that's not the case. I've dealt with it for years now, at this point what's a couple more months?

Hey y'all! I have my first appointment with the surgeon that will (hopefully) do my surgery next week! My question is in regards to people who previously suffered from sleep apnea and had WLS. I am 27 and have undiagnosed sleep apnea (I know I do because I worked for a doctor who performed sleep studies and I have alllll the symptoms), and I was wondering about people who had WLS and it whether it helped clear up their sleep apnea or it didn't. Ages would be appreciated, I know age is a factor with sleep apnea. I really hope I can get this surgery, I'm so sick of waking up on my couch with no memory of having fallen asleep, or drinking 5 cups of coffee just to stay awake at my desk. It's so terrible!! Thanks so much in advance for any input!

My final straw was my sweet, loving father cautiously asking me if I would consider looking in to the surgery. His concern and willingness to do whatever it takes to help me was a huge push for me to try and get this done. Have yet to meet the surgeon, but fingers crossed!

I would really like some friends too! Please feel free to add me! spenceamyt@gmail.com

Haha! Awesome thanks for the input! I bet the powder is the best way to get the most out of it as opposed to a power bar or similar. To me, anything that makes the absorption of nutrients after WLS work better is something worth checking out!

Hi everyone! I saw this article on the NPR website: powders and other various food stuffs made with it or out of it. Has anyone here that has had WLS used this in addition to their normal Vitamin regiment? I have yet to have surgery, but this sounds like it could have the potential to help WLS patients who have trouble getting their needed nutrition in. Thanks in advance! (Disclaimer: this is my first post ever! Woo! Apologies if it's all goofed up.)

This screams of victim blaming, whether that was your intention or not. She clearly was assaulted and honestly, nothing they say can make up for the way she was treated and the abuse she's suffered. The is NO EXCUSE for sexual assault, and she had every right to post this far and wide without waiting for a cover up story response from their office/legal team. To the OP - I am so so sorry this happened to you, no one deserves to be violated like that. I know that you are upset about your STD diagnosis (who wouldn't be?), but I know there are a lot of medicines out there that can make life easier and prevent outbreaks. I hope your husband is supportive of you. I hope you have a successful recovery both physically and mentally.
