SLEEP APNEA AFTER RNY SURGERY

QUESTION: WILL MY SLEEP APNEA GO COMPLETELY AWAY AFTER SURGERY?

It can - some do- I'm 8 mos out still using cpap but pressure lowered from 12 to a 7 - one mos post op

There is no guarantee. Mine did not, and I am very nearly at goal. My pressure has not been lowered either. Looks like I will be on the CPAP forever.

thank you, i guess i just need to pray that it goes away.

Sleep apnea is not only related to weight. It can also be caused by heredity and structure in the airway, which won't be changed by weight loss. Good luck.

I have just had a lapband, and i cant stand my cpap machine now. It feels like its putting air and causing gas pains. Is this my imagination? I love my cpap machine and need it. what do i do?
I have tried it, and i just rip it off now.......before i would go to bed early for its benefits....
