Can sleep study results delay your weight loss surgery



Recommended Posts

I visited the sleep center today and was given results by the NP. I have had three previous studies. The first one I only slept 16 minutes out of eight hours. The second study was better but I could not tolerate C -PAP so they stopped that study and had me come back in for Bi-PAP. I sure do hope this does not set my surgery date back. Has anyone had any experience with this? Thank you and be blessed.

I was on a CPAP and had sleep apnea before my surgery (sleeve). It was no big deal. They just made me bring my CPAP with me for the overnight hospital stay to use while I slept.

I personally love my cpap machine lol. Probably one of the only ones too. It took a few days to get use to it but i did and love it. I have a resmed airsense 10. But yea i didnt need a sleep study done since i already had one. During my sleep study i slept but my Oxygen saturation kept going down into the 80's which is bad lol. I did the at home sleep study.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
