Sleep Apnea
I had a test at the end of Jan. one year after surgery to see how my sleep apnea was doing and about week later I received a phone call to take my machine in to have the pressure lowered. Made a appointment to see sleep doctor to get the results had to cancel the appointment but then rescheduled and went on Wednesday to see him and low and behold I NO LONGER HAVE SLEEP APNEA AND DO NOT NEED THE MACHINE YAHOO.
I am so happy and excited I am shouting it to anyone I can tell I will go back in a year to make sure it is still gone but so happy I do not have to use the machine anymore even though I slept good with it one. Doctor said he was surprised it was gone because of the apneas I was having before surgery.

That's fantastic!! WTG!! I go next month as well for another follow up to check my cpap settings and pressure. It's been lowered twice now and I think the next step is the same as yours, getting rid of it.
Incredible how our lives have changed in one year!!
