Weight loss by any method is a well-documented treatment for OSA. We report a case of an obese gentleman with poorly controlled asthma and found to have severe obstructive sleep apnea on the background of hypertension and type 2 diabetes. Bariatric surgery cured his OSA and improved the control of all of his other medical comorbidities.
