I wasn't going to have to, but my dr asked me if I snored and I was honest and said yes.

Has a sleep study, but didn't have sleep apnea.

BTW--I no longer snore.

I don't have to have one. I was worried my surgeon would require it but aside from being day I don't have any other warning signs of apnea, so he said no sleep study.

I had a sleep study in 2012 and needed a machine. Already diagnosed with sleep apnea. Tried doing it but with COPD with Asthma I just couldn't breath with it. Felt like I was fighting for oxygen, threw it off more than on. Now I have been on O2 for 4 years, in beginning was 24 /7 now it's for night use. Losing the weight has had a positive result for me.

I didn't need one because I didn't have symptoms.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
