I alos have Aetna! I live in the Phoenix area. I can't fall asleep without my husband and also have a breastfeeding baby who usually wakes up 3+ times a night so I am going to have to wake up & pump at those times & I am worried it's going to count against me but it's just not something I can help.

I went for my sleep study and found that I do have sleep apnea. Tonight I go for my second sleep study to get fitted for the CPAP. I'm not gonna lie, I barely slept at all the first time. It was impossible for me to fall asleep with all of those wires and stuff on me, plus the thought that someone was watching me really creeped me out. You do eventually fall asleep and don't even realize it but I woke up constantly. Other people tell me they fell right to sleep and slept fine all night. I'm preparing not to get any sleep again tonight, LOL..It's not bad having the study though, just plan it so that you have nothing to do the next day so that you can catch up on your sleep..good luck with it..

It sounds like we are about on the same timeline! My 2nd of 4 appts is the 14th! & my sleep study is the 20th. Good luck at your sleep study, I am so nervous for mine.

I was like that the first four days post op. They sent me home with anti-nausea medication it was so bad. Here was my regiment; take anti nausea medication wait 20 minutes take pain medicine, wait 20 more minutes then I could alternate popsicle, ice chip and sipping water. Hope this helps.

i was like that also for the first 24 hours ice chips helped a lot!! Even now when i get nauseated i get ice chips to suck on. I am three weeks out

Way to stand your ground. It is surprising how many people don't know what weight loss surgery is and what it entails. I had a coworker who thought I got liposuction because I said I was having weight loss surgery.
