    Good news is that both conditions can be corrected/elimanated with adequate weight loss.So its a possiable solution for both concerns. I am only 2 months out and see great improvement in both my sleep/diabeties.

    Good Luck!

    No sleep apnea here but I had Type 2 Diabetes. My doctor swore to me for years that if I lost weight all my health problems he was treating would go away. Type 2 Diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. He said "I can't tell you how many pounds will do it but it will happen." His decision was to discontinue all my medications starting the day of surgery, and then watch my numbers carefully. And he was so right. I've never gone back on any of my medications!!

    Sleep apnea responds well too as weight in the upper chest/neck area is a huge part of the condition.
