Anyone hear of any stories where someones procedure was denied? I am worried because on 7/21 I got on the standing dr scale at 252. SInce then I have been sacrificing and exercising consistently. Today the scale reads 5 pounds more.THIS CAN NOT BE! I heard that some ins companies will deny you if you gain weight during the prep process. I am so discouraged now! Any tips on fast change eating habits? I need to drop about 10 pounds in less than a month

Wow! Yes he woke me up about 230am and hooked me up to the machine/mask. After, I slept like a baby & no episodes. Its amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Very helpful info. Apparently I had 40-50 episodes of stopped breathing during my sleep study, so the sleep dr suggested I go for the machine. I'm definitely taking mine on surgery day.

Nooo The CPAP machine is used to aid in a breathing disorder during sleep called Apnea.

im not complianing either....whatever qualifies me for surgery, Im ok with it.

Thansk everyone. I feel much better now! Endoscopy scheduled for late August

Medical supply just called me. They are sending someone to me to show me how to work the machine, settings, etc. They are coming to my office LOLOL! I cant take off anymore right now. I am doing the 'rent to own" as well. First payment of $52 then $8 a month til its paid off. My $300 deductible has been met. How sweet was that process!

Maryland....Beltsville area....getting sleeved late Sept early Oct.

My dietician recommended Unjury (they have a chicken soup flavor), and Premier Protein.

Ballpark co-pay amount spent on machine??

Wow! Thanks for sharing. I needed to hear this so I can reassure my parents that everything will be ok......much success on your journey as well.

There is a great chicken soup flavored shake....I need to look at the samples at home.

Prayers up. Check in when you can. Mine isnt until Sept and Im nervous.

Wow! I didnt know you can bring the machine with you to surgery. Im getting more educated everyday.

Ballpark co pay amount for the CPAP????
