Used C-Pap machine for severe sleep apnea for probably 5-7 years! After VSG, no sleep apnea, no machine. Yayy!! Now, if I lay flat on my back, and am really tired, my husband says I snore - but who doesn't ??? At 58, I would anyhow! lol I just know that completely breathless feeling when I even laid down on the couch to take a nap left never to return!!!! JOY!!!!

That sounds great. :)

This sounds encouraging! I have sleep apnea and my VSG surgery date is in a couple of weeks. I am hoping the weight loss will help me put the C-PAP machine back in the box it came in!

Mine has improved some, but I'm not off the machine YET! I've upped my cardio to exercise the heart and lungs, which my doc and I are hoping will eliminate the machine. Even if it doesn't, my energy levels are through the roof and I'm no longer tired every minute of every day like I was before surgery. I'll take it. :)

Wow that's great Lissa I have not had my sleep apnea test yet but my doctor is 99.9% sure I have it and I was just wondering if it would get better after surgery.
