    Sleep study

    alot of insurance company request it the sleep study like all the other test ... I had to do sleep study , EKG , stress test , echocardiogram , endoscopy , psychology evaluation. , physical , blood work , PFTs , I think I forgot something ... The doctor told me of you have sleep apnea it doesn't slow down you process , you just need a little extra like cpap to sleep that's all ... And they need to know that when they put you under for surgery

    That's what my NUT said the unjury products are high protein low carb low fat and low sugar and they taste good ... So I just hope I like it after surgery I got a few samples from my NUT & tried it & they are very good !!! So I pray I will be able to hold them in

Well can I just say I left there and cried ... & then went to an all u can eat buffet and stuffed my sorrows !!! Then I went to see my NUT and she made me feel better she gave me this list !!! She said pick 1 every week till I get them all !! Then she gave me the amount of calories she wants to at !!! It's changed as I've started to loose weight now I'm @ 1200 calories a dAy !!
