I'm sorry Peyton. I just re-read you reply and see that you have gone through with the surgery.  How are you feeling? How long did take off from work?

Welcome to the LW Boards.
I have had 2 different sleep studies(Spent the night 4 times).  Each study I had required 2 overnight trips.  One to test me and one to set the pressure.
I was on my second CPAP machine when I had WLS.  I absolutely loved my machine because I felt so much better when I woke up in the mornings.  I am now completely off my machine.  The pressure had been turned down as low as it would go and it was still too strong and would wake me up.
I had to answer a long questionnaire about my sleep habits, they hooked lots of wires up to me(head, chest, legs) and I thought I'll never go to sleep, but I did.

Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

Linda
