I can feel mine rather easily, it is to the right and about three inches above my belly button. -
Has anyone had their C-PAP settings lowered since losing weight?
MelanieJayne posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was diagnosed with sleep apnea 7-years ago and have used a c-pap since then. My air pressure was increased when I gained weight, but I was wondering if anyone has had to have their c-pap pressures lowerd since being banded and lost weight? -
I saw it in Las Vegas back in January, it was an awesome exhibit. At the time I hadn't even started on my journey to lap band surgery, but I do remember seeing the overweight woman, and thought how much it reminded me of me! This surgery is the best thing I have ever done for my health.

Thank you all for your replies! I would have to check my doctor about resetting the settings, because right now it I think it is too high. I did not have to use my c-pap during my lap band surgery, because I was intubated, but last year when I had back surgery (microdiscectomy) I did wear it during surgery.
