    Hi Brandi, Yes I have sleep apnea. That did help me qualify easier. I had to go see the pulmonary doctor who is excellent and the heart doctor. It did not take me long to be approved. I have been on a cpap for over a year now. :)

    Feeling lost

    Ah Janet, It is so sad to see you so unhappy. Not feeling well can do that to you. Congratulations on your weight loss, that is fantastic. Don't overdo. Make sure you do what the doctor tells you. Maybe we all need some sunshine. Hope you feel better. :)
