So I finally got my machine on January 14th. Starting to feel alot better. It's taking some getting use to having to sleep on my back and side (stomach sleeper here). Called the surgeon's office and they said I will have to wait at least another month because I have to send in the chip in the c-pap machine after 30 days of using it. Then I will be able to maybe get a surgery date then. Sigh.......
So I've been diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. The guy on the phone said he'd never seen anyone with as low level of oxygen as me. Apparenlty 60% is really bad. So I go Sunday to do another sleep study to get fitted for a mask. It's kinda taken my attention off the surgery for a bit but I'm still keeping my eye on the prize. I've come too far to fail now. I still have to lose the 10 pounds the doc wants me to lose plus about 3 that I've gained since then so all in all 13 lbs needs to vacate my body! I had gained 7 lbs but I've lost 4 lbs of that thank God. Boy this is gonna be tough but I don't have a choice I have to do it. I'm not getting any younger!! LOL! Wish me luck and encouraging words would be nice. Thanks!
