A couple of questions, now that I have been diagnosed.

I had my two sleep studies done and have been diagnosed with sleep apnea. I have 120 episodes per hour. I should be getting my cpap machine today or tomorrow. Aflac is at my husbands work today for the new insurance year. He told my husband that I won't be able to get life insurance since I have been diagnosed with SA. Is this true? I still have 7 or 8 years left on a 20 year level term policy. My question is... can sleep apnea go completely away, or will this diagnosis follow me forever. I have the same question for the high blood pressure, will the diagnosis of that go away once I have surgery and loose weight? The second question is... Shouldn't I be dead with 120 + episodes per hour? I can't wait to have more energy.
