I have had only positive experience with doctors at Northwestern. I was very thankful for my phone conversation with Dr. Attarian addressing sleep apnea. I was encouraged. It may be possible to treat the condition, even end it, with weight loss. My goal is to loose 30+ lbs ASAP . . . for sure before we meet in 6 months. Meanwhile, I will do my best to keep the P-10 nasal pillow mask on when I sleep, or at least 4 hours.
