Hi folks,

The results are in and it's a big NO. I do Not have sleep apneoa. This is bad news as far as my funding is concerned but at least I do not have another health problem to add to the list.

Update.....The results are in and I am waiting for the word from the consultant. I might know something on Monday. Fingers crossed.

today I am collecting my sleep apnoea testing machine. I should know tomorrow if I have sleep apnoea. If so then it might swing the funding panel. It will be good news what ever the outcome.

Good luck Sweetie, come back & tell us as soon as you get your results

Mr Ammori does favour the bypass over the band but I am sure he has your best interests at heart. I am almost 4 weeks post op bypass with Mr Ammori and I am doing fine....xx
 
hi thank you for replying, im having difficulty in knowing how to go on the forum and knowing when i have replies so please bear with me.....its so good to hear you are doing well, by-pass does seem to be getting good feedback..do you mind me asking if you got funding from nhs..cos im not sure if ive been accepted or not, and dont want to build my hopes up!!

Hi everyone, I managed to sleep as normal last night while wearing my sleep test monitor on. I might have the results later on today. Fingers crossed that the out come will have some benefit to my finding application. If the result is possitive it will explain why I sleep so badly and I can make improvements on that. If it is negative then that means I can move on as this test has been holding up my application. What ever the result it will be good news for me.
