This just struck me hard yesterday and I just have to post something about it... I was skimming through the paper and there was an obit in there about this young lady who's cause of death was Sleep apnea... If that isn't a reason for insurance to approve WLS then what is. I'm so happy to be on the losing side now and I won't have to worrie about not waking up because of sleep apnea.

Yep. A lot of people who die of a heart attack probably really died due to sleep apnea. They'll never be completely able to tell because many people who have sleep apnea aren't in the best of shape and have heart disease issues. They're also looking in to sleep apnea as a factor in SIDS deaths.
