Get it checked out!: Seek medical help to determine to cause of your sleep and weight issues. Typically a collapse airway is involved and today, a simple overnight take home sleep test can provide all the information needed to determine if a potentially life threatening, life shortening condition of obstructive sleep apnea may be at play. Do it, it may save your life!

Discuss: Your doctor is there to help you. If you dont feel comfortable with your physician sometimes it is appropriate to discuss with your physician that discomfort or embarrassment. If after talking with your physician you still feel the same, then it is appropriate to discuss being transferred to another physician you would feel comfortable with. Open communication is the key to appropriate treatment.
