They should be able to set you up with a CPAP "loaner" machine for a month until you get your prescription to get your own unit.

Hopefully it won't delay your surgery, but if you have sleep apnea, you definitely want to have it in recovery.

Hey Girl,
Things will work out, and you need to relax, CPAP are pretty easy to get use to.  But tell me, how was your first day of the optifast, did it fill you up.  Starting mine on Mar 14.  Just take one step at a time, and we are all here to help and support you.

First, this is not a `FREAKING OUT - HELP`` post.  Many of us have had sleep apnea diagnosed prior to WLS and NO it won`t delay it.  Get the machine and feel better.

Just a thought, but this could help your situation as sleep apnea is another morbidity factor, in other words, you need the surgery more than ever now. I'm sure by now though you have it all sorted out.
