So I got my CPAP for sleep apnea when I was over 600lbs. Doctor wasn't very specific about how much weight I needed to lose to come off of it, but being down 120 pounds figured it might be a good time to revisit the sleep study?

    I would say definitely get a new sleep study or at least contact the sleep study clinic/doctor and ask. I was supposed to be on that CPAP machine but got the surgery instead the year before last and it made a huge difference for me.

    I do remember them saying though as you loose weight you need to get the air pressure adjusted otherwise it can be too strong and do damage.
