I mean God bless you if you are cured but I'd hold on to that machine till you have gone a year or two with no issues. I've lost more weight than you have through just dieting and still have sleep apnea!
I also had Gastric Bypass Surgery back in 2009 and had a sleep study that said my OSA was cured but now 6 years later I need the machine again so I would think twice before selling it since your insurance doesn't cover it as the OSA can return in some patients.
