What is the purpose of a sleep study? When i was in icu in 1/1/06 and 4/5/06 i was diagnosed with sleep apnea already with Left ventrical dysfunction(congestive heart failure) from Unchecked high blood pressure.Complications from diabetes. I am hearing about pre dieting 6 months;my doc has been trying to get me to successfully lose weight since 02/01/02. With no success apparently.He is the one who is telling me about surgery.Some talk about exercise ,kinda hard right now with my heart condition.I have sufficient BMI and health complications from obesity.I am Disabled now ,SSI ,Medicare and Medi-cal are on the way.They just have to determine how much benefits i get.Anyday now ,then i will go to see my cardiologist and orientation at St.Marys, Long Beach,Ca.Because of Medicare(disability,I am not 65yrs old yet)and Medi-cal i will get Lap-Band no matter what with my background,that shouldn't be a problem.:thumbup: JERRY
